In July I thought “make sure you don’t forget the blogiversary this year”

So what did I do?

3rd blogiversary

Here’s My first post (back at the original blogspot digs), and my second, which reveals what impelled me to begin blogging at all – the ineptitude and negligence surrounding the Hurricane Katrina disaster.

Thank you to all the readers/commentors who have joined with me (and with Lauredhel since March 2007) to make Hoyden About Town an online community (not just a ranting place for two Aussie sheilas). You are what keeps us coming back to post again.

    Frist! :-)

    Happy Blogiversary Tigtog – and Lauredhel, although I know Lauredhel came a bit later – and can I have some of that cake?

    You are what keeps us coming back to post again.

    Quoted For Truth!

    I want some cake too!

    Three and a bit years – fantastic. Congratulations!

    Of late, when I’ve not had much time, I’ve had to cut my blog reading down a bit. So I have become very selective about what I do and don’t read. I always, always, always find time to come and spend some time here.

    Tigtog and Lauredhel, thank you so much for your wonderful blogging.

    Happy blogiversary! Mine is today — three years also — and I only remembered by chance when I looked at the date.

    How interesting that you too should have been moved to begin your own blog by the drama and horrors of Katrina — that was one of the first things I blogged about too, after following the stunning Operation Eden for a couple of weeks.

    Thanks for keeping up and hosting this great site. This is where I mainly come these days to keep my feminism chops up to date.

    Well this way you have a spring birthday. Sproing! – when kid hoydens gambol joyfully on dewy minitramps and gaily cast off their lycra raiment (SPF 50+), astonishing innocent beachgoers with their lightening-fast but sadly all too obvious nuddy runs. *sigh*.
    Happy blogiversary, Hoydens!

    Happy blogiversary, Hoydens! I know I haven’t been around for long, but I love the combination of topics and the level of discourse here. It’s great.

    Also, for the stroppy.

    Thanks, Hoydens. I love it here.

    Damn that is some fine-looking cake. Congratulations Hoydens!

    Yay! Like Deborah, I often have to limit the number of blogs I read– and this one is always on the core list that gets checked every day (well, several times a day, actually).

    I love this place. :)

    (And I want some of that cake too– it looks criminally delicious!)

    Happy Birthday – keep up the good work.

    We need more ranty Sheilas on the net, it begins to cancel out the barrage of misinformation from the patriarchy and their female followers.
