My 10 Most Popular Posts from 2018

I thought I’d give you a countdown of my most popular posts form this year. What an up and down blogging year. I’ve written a total of 84 posts! I went and won myself a blogging award! But in the second half of the year, I haven’t been able to produce as many posts as normal as because….well you know…that thing called life.

So here they are, and I must say, I am very surprised at my no.1.

***Click on the titles to read each post***

10. Budget Beauty Products

Probably one of my more useful posts, even though it was an unusual one from me.

9. Top 10 American Sitcoms

LOVED doing this post. Still love all my choices and no Seinfield still doesn’t make my top 10. You’re just going to have to find a way to live with it. Soz.

8. The School Run Game

Oh, I am very glad, this is in here. It is still very much my life and very possibly yours too.

7. Don’t Make Me Go Out

Ah yes, this is the post where I’m a bit miserable and even more so at this time of year, I stand by everything I say in this post.

6. Ironing: why bother?

This was my attempt at starting a revolution. I still say it: “Throw out the irons, people”

5. The Insignificance of Romance

The one where I gave two fingers to hearts and flowers

4. Celebrities That Should Just Get Back Together

None of them have got back together since I wrote this. None of them listened to me. Idiots.

 

AND THE TOP THREE POSTS WERE…..

3. How To Break Up With Your Phone- Week I

How’s your phone addiction going? Mine is still a work in progress, but I’m a lot better than I was. Probably should have a re-read of this book though…

2. In Celebration of Food

Of course a pornographic article was going to be popular with you very clever and astute readers. You are my people. Now make me dinner.

And my post popular post in 2018 was…..

1. Every Live Act I Have Ever Seen

QY277327_942long

Whaaaaaaa? The post I quickly cobbled together in about 10 minutes and posted as a laugh along with my mate sexy Phil Taylor?! I literally didn’t think anyone would care, but there you go, folks. It’s been updated recently too!

The one that didn’t quite make my top ten: Just a few clicks away from being in my top ten was The Representation of Brits in American Culture

My least popular post this year (for balance): Oh go give it some love- bless it- Just Another Book Club- June book

My post popular post of all time: It’s still- Why Women’s Procreation Choices Are None of Your Business

And here’s a list of my TOP TEN POSTS FROM 2017

Thank you so much for reading and Happy New Year!

      And it’s been a delight being pals with you too! Annoyingly, WordPress won’t let me like/comment on your similar post (I think it’s an issue my end rather yours), but I love your list of excellent posts!

    Well, I’m a little disappointed that the book club post was the least popular! Come on people! Books!
    But I do love your posts, music and books and social commentary—what’s not to like?

    Doesn’t it figure that the post you spent the least time on is the one that everyone loves? 😂

    So much awesomeness on this list – can’t wait to see what you come up with for 2019! Lots of love to you and yours from me and mine. ❤️❤️
