Irish Election won the Best Political Blog award this year. This is the second year in a row we have won it and have to say I feel and I am sure Cian and everyone else here feels very humbled and grateful to have been chosen out of all the other fine blogs this year. I am sorry that I couldn’t make it over to the awards but I trust everyone had a good night. Thanks to everyone who helped out with the blogging, election conference, election conference or just read us. Thank you, life thank you, thank you love and it is true there are some angels on the net

While I didn’t win in my category I am totally taking some vicarious glory for this win. That is to say, congratulations.

Two years in a row? That’s it, Simon and Cian, you’re going to have to tell us. Who are you sleeping with?

Well deserved.

Hi

I sent you an email about the issuu publication I am putting together on the blog awards. Just wondered did you get the email? I have prepared a second example of the publication which you can see at the link below. If you didn’t get the email can you let me know and I will send it again.

Thanks

Alan

Sorry for not being able to attend on the night - other issues intervened but I must say that everything simon wrote, I feel too.

Well done to every single person who has posted here. Last may was great, who knows if that picture next year might be Bertie?
