   I nominate the current post “Up Town” at the scintillating blog “GET MUMMY’S PURSE,” which I urge one and all to visit. This Blogger’s voice captures very nearly everything about England and the English I most admire, and also reminds me of why I always enjoyed “Are You Being Served?”

   And here are a couple which I’ve retrieved from last week’s nominations, as they were unfortunately sent to the Spam queue:

   (Both nominated by nuttycow)

   Status Anxiety’s post here - http://status-anxiety.blogspot.....tiful.html - is a cracker

   And Jo’s rant - http://sleepingeyes.blogspot.c.....limit.html - also made me laugh

    Bit of a rule-bender - I’d say it’s more about the words than the picture, but it’s all related - but I think today’s XKCD post is worthy of a nomination, at least.
