Five years ago this blog was born. As Joanne Mallon pointed out, that’s 103 in blog years.
Obviously 734 posts ago I had no idea it would end up so important to me.
I was going to write something worthy and reflective about it all but I don’t have time and Boy Three is climbing on top of me. So I won’t.
Instead there’s an utterly average photo of my family having a picnic lunch and a mildly amusing crocodile.
I did just want to say thanks very much for coming, I’m so glad you do.
Enjoy, there might be cake – or gin – later. Here’s to the next five.

Wow- happy birthday blog. Does that mean it started school in September?
Joanne Mallon says
Happy Birthday from one five year old blog to another. I remember when this here internet was all fields, the only thing sponsored was a fun run and Twitter was the sound of the birds in the morning.

103! That's impressive. Do bloggers get put down when they're past a certain age? I do hope not.
A very Happy Bloggy Birthday to you, Ellen.
Perfectly Happy Mum says
Happy Blogiversary!! Enjoy the cake and gin later and take time to read your first month of blogging. I bet that's quite an experience! I intend to do this in August for my blog's 4th bday 🙂

Congratulations! What a long way we've all come in 5 years…

It was held back a year.
Ellen Arnison says
What did we do with ourselves then?
Ellen Arnison says
I'm hoping there's a home for bewildered bloggers somewhere we can all tweet orders for gin and rant online.
Ellen Arnison says
Good idea.
Ellen Arnison says
Certainly have, though, obviously, neither of us looks a day older.

Happy anniversary – wishing you many more!
