The Mousies have been awarded
It's finally official...
After nearly two months of anticipation the Inaugural Mouse & Trowel Awards have been decided. And the big winners were GardenRant and Digging both scooping three awards each with GardenRant taking the coveted Garden Blog of the Year. Congratulations to the Ranters and Pam - you deserve your accolades.
Equally deserving, Yolanda Elizabet's Bliss took out the award for Best International Garden Blog. This is a great one for the feed reader as Yolanda shares some wonderful pics of her garden and even some of the projects she has undertaken. And all this coming from Dinteloord in the Netherlands.
But certainly the most praise should go to Colleen from In the Garden Online for running such a great competition. I'm looking forward to seeing who will appear next year and hopefully Colleen with continue with it again. Big, big Kudos!!
To all those faithful readers who voted for Gardening Tips 'n' Ideas - a quick hat tip to you. I was amazed that this blog even made the nominations so I'm truly honoured. Thanks again.

Of course we voted for you! You have THE most energetic blog out there. Even though I have never heard your voice, I feel as though I have heard it, because your enthusiasm is so contagious. You are also, if I may add, not only a prolific writer, but a very good one too. Here's to kicking ass next year!

Cheers Beth. What a lovely comment. That could almost pick me up out the gutter and bathe my wounds.
I am truly honoured to have even been considered for these awards so to be beaten by such excellent bloggers isn't a slap in the face.
This has been such a great boost for gardening bloggers and I hope that Colleen is willing to put in all the effort again next year.
Much appreciated Beth.
Hmmm - maybe I should do a podcast. I've enjoyed some of yours BTW.

Thanks Stuart, you're a sport! FWIW I thought that you were most likely to win for the reasons that Beth mentioned. :-)
cheerio from Dinteloord!
