I’m a Winner Baby!

Posted on by Hayley Beasley Dye

Unbelievably, the unbelievable has happened. I only went and scooped myself a prize at the Annual Bloggers Bash this year! My little blog won the Best Entertainment Blog category. So I’m here to say a big, fat THANK YOU to every one who took the time to vote for my blog. It means so very much and I am eternally grateful. Sadly, I wasn’t able to attend the ceremony in London to collect my prize, but I’d like to give a big shoutout to the organisers of the ceremony and thank them for all the hard work they put into the awards every year. You can see a list of the winners and nominees HERE.

Annual Bloggers Bash- EXCITING NEWS!

Posted on by Hayley Beasley Dye

Gang, this morning I am writing a post the I did NOT think I would be writing, but here I am. Some of you may recall that I was nominated for a blogging award in the “Best Pal” category. Well, I had the pleasure of attending the Annual Bloggers Bash on Saturday and can now tell you with great pleasure- Just Another Blog From a Woman got the RUNNER-UP PRIZE. I CAME THIRD!!!!!!! Look how excited I am about this, I’ve put several exclamation marks and everything! I am absolutely overwhelmed that this little blog here managed to rack up enough votes to come third. I do work so very hard, so receiving this recognition is so very special to me.

And I’m mainly here, blathering on, to thank each and everyone of you that voted for me. You have made this little woman very happy indeed. You are all sexy, superstars- THANK YOU.

Also, I want to thank the awards committee who work so hard to put these awards together. I was very lucky to meet them all and I can confirm they are all very lovely (and yes sexy) people.

Lastly, I just want to shout out to my fellow nominees who are all wonderful people and bloggers. It was a very tough category and as much as this sounds like a cliche, you know that we are all winners.

Big love to everyone and a big, fat THANK YOU to you all.
