11 years old. Steel tankard to celebrate?

22nd May 2014 by Jax Blunt 100 Comments

The blog that is.

Apparently, if it were a wedding anniversary, the suitable gift is steel, so having an engraved steel tankard to give away, courtesy of Buyatankard.com is very fitting.

You’ve a choice of two, either a Happy Father’s day (which can be personalised), or a choose your own message.

Neat gift eh?

11 years. Wow. That means Small is 11 next week, the child that was a bump when I started this, over 4000 posts ago. A lot over 4000 posts ago. That’s a lot of words.

A lot of children. A lot of life. I’m not going to try to summarise it here (would kind of make the 4000+ posts a bit pointless if I could ๐Ÿ˜‰ ) but I do feel it’s a bit of an achievement. If you’d like to celebrate with me, feel free to enter the giveaway courtesy of the rafflecopter widget below.

More giveaways coming up over the next few days. I’d hoped for 11, but given the complete lack of organisation and forethought I approached the blogaversary with, that might not quite come off. Bit of uncertainty adds spice to life, right? Anyway. Enjoy. And happy blogaversary to me.

    If my own boy wasn’t going to be 11 shortly too, I wouldn’t believe it, because I remember it like it was yesterday!
