- Link back to the person (or people) who nominated you. Done
- Add the award logo to your blog. Done

Thanks very much Alastair ! I am way behind on reading my posts and ended up stopping here because I love reading back award speeches 😀 – I appreciate the nomination very much. What a great community you support!
Thank you Lesley. You are more than welcome 🙂
Congratulations, Alastair.
Thank you 🙂
Congrats!
Thank you 🙂
Congrats my friend. Wishing you all the best with the dating 🙂
Thank you Celestine 🙂
Thanks and congrats Alastair! You joined a dating site? With all the cool bloggers vying for your attention? 🙂
😆 The majority of the bloggers are married or taken or not in my country. There are a couple I wouldn’t mind meeting up with, but I’m keeping that to myself to save embarrassing myself and them hehe.
Thank you though
Yeah I know what you mean! Well… love has a way of seeking you out when you least expect… you know I’m a diehard fan of happy-ever-after love stories!! Let me know as it unfolds!!
🙂 🙂
I will 🙂
Congrats:)
Thank you 🙂
Hey that award is just too beautiful. I love the image! A dating site? Go you. I know heaps of people that have come out with great partners from doing this. Of course you will go through a few to find that special one, but it’s worth it. Hugs Paula xx
I hope so. Only one person has answered me so far 😆
Early days my friend. Hugs xxx
🙂 I have a couple of friends who are going through my profile and helping me write it rather than just saying “erm .. hello, I’m me” 😆
Hahaha! Yes….let your friends be your guides. 🙂 You will criticize yourself too much. Some people can talk the walk etc and some can’t. Your a great guy and will meet someone wonderful. Hugs Paula xx
Thank you Paula, i appreciate that 🙂 I wonder if I should use my dating profile in my “About Me” section 😆
Hell, why not! Go for it and be brave. 🙂 xxxxxxx
😀
Congrats 🙂 Well deserved!
Thank you 🙂

Hope you find a match & all works out well 🙂
