Who are you and where are you from?

I check my stats sometimes and they are quite interesting. The keyword searches people do that brings them to my blog are sometimes very bizarre. In the last little while I have had people find my blog by googling: 

  • cathy's bags
  • get paid to read magazines
  • do i look like i work here
  • how to write for cosmo
  • calistro barcelona
  • rick astley wins mtv award
  • competition allen bush last bird singing
  • little green men art clip
  • elfed the elephant
  • teenage crush
  • hate chegwin
  • why do people put others down
  • multicystic displastic kidney
  • is 9.17am a good time to do a driving test
  • postman hates me
  • aifric campbell glen dimplex
  • how to write farce
These keyword searches were all since the last week of October! 

People also come from all over the world. I have had visitors from places like: London, New York, San Diego, Cardiff, Northampton, Leicester, Bangkok, Miami, Sydney, Los Angeles, Cardiff, Hobart, Pasig, Worcester, Stamford, Paris, Telford, San Jose, Bristol, Evergreen, Manila, Reading, Erie, Waalwijk, Key West and Dorchester. 

I welcome you all, whoever you are, where ever you came from and whatever brought you here. 

My one main area of interest in the location of visitors is the ones from Northampton, England. Do you know me? Do I know you? Why don't you leave a comment?! I need to know!!

Interesting mix of searches! I'm still getting naked nuns and notebooks. I don't think it will ever stop:-)

Well, it's me in Bangkok, obviously, but I expect you knew that!

It's so addictive, isn't it? I've blogged today about Wallace and Gromit in the hope of throwing all the searches off on Crystal Tips and Alistair.

Sometimes I get the desire to blog about something totally obscure and random just to see what happens and who it brings my way!

I've just checked my statcounter and someone googled 'I'm 40 and short and I want a flat stomach' and found my blog! Oops!

I think the stats include your own hits, so some of the Northampton ones may actually be you! I've found that anyway with my Google Analytics.

I've not really had any strange searches for people to find me - very disappointing!

I did wonder that Elle but I removed my IP address from the stats pages that I use and Northampton still shows up. I know what my IP address usually looks like so know if it is me on the listings pages of statcounter or livefeed
