Arigato Asante Вы Dank u Danke Dankie Enkosi Gracias Grazie Merci Obrigado Σας ευχαριστούμε Siyabonga Tatenda… Whichever way you slice it: thank you!
You know that crap you often hear about “it’s an honour just to be nominated“? Well, it’s true. Paul+ was muttering something about “lean pickings”, but we’re ignoring him, aren’t we?
+ No, not you, Paul – the other Paul
clever boy! *mwah*
De rien, c’était un plaisir…!
i just voted for you in a number of categories. i hope you win, it’ll be worth the spam i receive for eternity
Congrats!
Look, bucko…I don’t care what you do, I don’t want to touch you. Ok?
Well, actually, ok, maybe a little bit.
oh, and what happens if you win all these categories…still no event in Cape Town? Philistines.
And with a pot of 2007 cents, you can almost afford to quit the day job now too
I’m holding thumbs 
Just how many Pauls do you know?
Maybe we can get one of them to pay for supper night, eh KN?
Saturday night … sheesh …
So when you win, seeing as there’s no blog awards dinner in Cape Town, we may just have to organise a local wino function to celebrate.
PS> Is Other-Paul in anyway related to Other-Duke?
Hi Kyknoord
I just found your Flickr photos by chance and I love them. I’ve been reading your blog since I first found it while living in London 3 years ago when it was a ray of distant hope in my life. I’ve lost track for a while and haven’t read your work for about 4 months and I’ve missed it. We’ve since moved back and are now quite settled in Malmesbury of all places, but you’re part of what makes South Africa a wonderful, inspiring, ever changing and brilliant place. I just wanted to thank you! I probably get 10 points for cheese factor, but who cares.
It’s a good thing you reminded me – I almost forgot to vote for my favourite.
I see you’re there too… haha just kidding!!!

You deserve each of those nominations. Thank God you don’t qualify for ‘Best SA Overseas blog’ nor ‘GLBT blog’ despite your shenanigans at Stodels.
done and dusted… i didn’t get nominated- but i voted anyway… bad time to lose a laptop right?
Hey Kyk!
Well done on your nominations.
I think your writing is exceptional, so my vote is cast.
Wow. You step out of the room for a few minutes…
granny wrangler: Mwah 2u2
anne: Oh good. We’re even, then?
other-duke: Spam? Oh no, not the food category!
mjw: Oh go on, you’re just
sayingtyping that.dolce: Any particular little bit you had in mind? Don’t worry, I’m sure we’ll be able to throw together some sort of ad-hoc boozefest down here, if necessary.
parenthesis: Oh yes, me too. Me too.
tenmiles: Lots – and they’re all fine, upstanding pillars of the community. Except for Paul, of course.
parenthesis: Looks like someone has food on the brain.
rev: Absolutely.
Nicki: Mom? Is that you? But seriously, thanks
terri: I KILL YOU NOW!!!! haha just kidding. Maybe.
alan: There’s always next year.
angel: Is there ever a good time?
jam: Kind of makes me wonder what the rule is
Mwah!
Well done, KN.
Scew “it’s an honour just to be nominated”… you are winning this year.
oh, you’re not going to get all big-headed now are you… I mean…blog-award nomination, promotion to moderator… you’re just having a fantastic week, aren’t you.
and it was ants. I insist.
Congratulations mein kleinen Kyk, very well deserved!
PS: You know I’d vote for you if you weren’t in my categories – of all the luck…
Believe me KN, when I say, that it’s not food that I have on the brain
Well that’s a relief. I was afraid he’d get lumped in there with the rest of them.
Ah, so Kyk, it is little. I’d heard, but I didn’t like to judge….
chitty: You’re going to give me the “everyone’s a winner” speech, aren’t you?
betenoir: My helmet has been a little snug of late. Ja okay, ants fukkit.
peas: It’s a deliberate attempt to split the vote. Bastards!
parenthesis: As long as it isn’t water, either.
forgottenmachine: Nah. He’s unique. Just like all the others.
dolce: You’ve heard of “the lizard”? Well, mine is my newt.
dear fellow nominee – thank GAWD we’re not in the same category! We should think of joining forces… I add some design touches to your blog and you write my posts – sounds good ya? he he
Anyways – congratulations on yr nomination.
“My newt” Kyk?
Poor lad
tripeak: You had me right up to the “you write my posts” bit. Congrats on yours, too.
parenthesis: What’s in a name?
I am particularly impressed by the fact that the KYKNOORD option is pre-selected in all categories for which you are nominated.
I mean, its so convenient that I don’t actually think about who I want to vote for, but still have to confirm my identity as a human while exposing myself to the ministrations of a thousand spammers.
George W. Bush would be proud. Pre-punched chads for Florida next time!
salman: Not quite ALL. Darkest Africa (best post category) isn’t preselected. I have some pride, I’ll have you know.
A rose by any other? Or in this case, a doring?
