It's good to know that people are still reading this and to receive a comment only a few hours after posting for the first time in over 3 months is certainly encouraging. I literally have only looked at my own blog a handful of times in that period. As a wise man once said "That would bring a tear to a glass eye". I say wise, I think he was mostly pissed. It was my pal, Belzo.
I had a look at my stats by way of onestat.com, a site which tells me how many people look at it on each day/week/month etc, and their locations.
Even today I have people reading my blog from Chicago, Valkenswaard in the Netherlands, Calcutta (Calcutta!), Cardiff, Dundee and Glasgow of course. Even in the 'dead' period, it has still been looked at every day with an average of around 7 hits a day. It's not quite at Bloodbus level yet but we're getting there.
A while ago I registered this site on a kind of ratings/blogger award site which I came across by chance in my internet travels.
Basically bloggers register their blogs, people vote for a blog, and something happens at the end of the year. I don't know what. So far I have 2 votes. Me and my brother.
I added my site in March this year and deliberately didn't advertise the fact on my blog to see if anything happened via that ratings site. Nope. So I'm advertising it now. Vote for me. At the moment I have one more vote than Bloodbus.com, so that's something.
Go to www.bloggerschoiceawards.com, search on the word 'Glasgow', go under the category Best Humour Blog, and then vote. I think you have to register in order to vote but don't let that put you off, you're not handing over bank details or anything.
I see, even now, the top blogger is about a woman with Cystic Fibrosis, and she only has 953 votes. Doesn't sound alot. I'm not particularly keen on knocking a woman with CF off the topspot, but needs must. So if you can, vote.

Bloodbus This Isn't
A colleague of mine was on the bus a couple of weeks ago at 5pm. The of the day so very busy and only standing room left.
There were several people standing in the centre aisle and at the front, just beside the driver was a man holding a baby.
Someone pressed the bell up the back somewhere fore the bus to stop at the next place, but it kept on going. Whoever it was hadn't deemed to move down the bus to grace the driver with their presence, so the man holding the baby quite politely raised a point with the driver mentioning there were people wanting off at the last stop
"Well there's nae-one doon here waiting to get aff and I cannae fuckin' stoap in between stoaps". Alrighty then.
As the bus then made it's way around George Square the driver had to manoeuvre round a corner where some diddy had parked his car. This kind of riled the bus driver somewhat and hammered on his horn and let rip with a torrent of abuse at the parked car which I think was empty.
The man with the baby said to him "I think you should calm down a little".
No.......don't.......say.......that.
The driver turned to him and said "I think you need a fuckin' personality transplant pal, what the fuck are you daein telling me that?".
I think he should get a job on one of those tour buses and be a real face to face advert for Glasgow. Then he could drive them somewhere for a group mugging.
