My Everest


Well, from conception of this blog in a lofty tower block in the heart of a Sydney Investment Bank office, it is appropriate that in a week of Labour pains it took 9 months or so to produce the ultimate gift of deliverance that the father of this blog could wish for.


It's been a long road, a difficult journey with many highs and many lows. I initially wondered where the viewers would come from but after faithful number crunching of electoral poll data and thoughts on the political scene, slowly but surely the numbers trickled through on statcounter and consistent recognition on the much vaunted scottishroundup.co.uk followed.


But only now can I truly say I have arrived, only now can I look into the political distance with the steely gaze of a seasoned blogger, only now can I stand on the shoulders of giants and proclaim blogging greatness.



Dear readers, today is the dearest of dear diary days as I finally, finally make it into the "Best of Blogs" pages of the Scotland on Sunday.



Screw Christmas, I'm off to kill the fatted calf.




(Congratulations also to Freedom and Whisky for sharing the page with me. Your quote may be above mine but on a day like today, I think we're all winners.)
