Blimey… a Guardian mention one month and a nomination for this year’s Manchester Blog Awards the next. Maybe I should be too busy to blog more often. Or maybe not.

Anyway, thanks to whichever of you deluded people voted for Mancubist again. I’m really very honoured – and hopefully it’ll be the virtual kick up the arse that I need to start posting more irrelevant nonsense about this fair city.

And while I’m here, just a friendly reminder that (the very busy) Kate/Manchizzle and (slightly less busy) I are doing a blogging workshop (blogshop?) on Saturday 29 September.

Places are strictly limited (10) and tickets are a paltry £2 (hopefully that doesn’t reflect our worth), and you get to look at a very large picture of Kate while you book. Mine must have been lost in the post…
