However, TMP is still balancing slightly over 100K; and saying slightly means within 1000. I really doubt it will go under.

 

Well, focuses the mind on possible step change of my relationship to the blog (John, whose main thing is the technical aspects including hosting is doing fine) - I suspect I have become a half decent writer but am still not a very good blogger. Can be learned, though.

Hope the karate keeps on improving too...I have a black belt in Taekwondo, but the older I get those kicks don't reach as high as they used to!

Good luck with both in the future.

Have been hoverring just above 100K for over a week now (I am talking about several hundred sites). Probably should stop thinking about this one.

Now the much better news: The Money Principle was voted the second best UK Frugal Blog for 2013 by Happier. You can check this out here:

I did Shito-ryu karate for about 6.5 years when I was younger, finally got my black belt, then I got too busy to continue. I was in such great shape back then. I miss the days of 3 times a week workout and karate class. Might go back one of these days...

Let's see what tomorrow brings. I really want this even for a day :)

Congratulations for your promotion in karate and for your movement down in Alexa...hopefully you will cross 100k soon.

This is my first martial arts experience; and it started more as a way to annoy my twelve year old son (I reckon teasing them makes them strong though I didn't call him Izzie). Now he loves me being there and bossing me around (he is my senior in karate) and it is all good.

 

Great exercise - strenght and flexibility is what every runner should aim to maintain.

 

Alexa - not so sure. But it doesn't matter than much either - the site is growing nicely and I am still having fun.

I'm sure you'll crush 100k in the near future.

I want to get to the 'green' and 'red' though - this energy stuff looks so good that if it feels half as good as it looks...wow!

 

Alexa - no luck.
