Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow
The year is going, let him go.
(In Memoriam, Tennyson)
To celebrate the new year, in the style of the Queen's New Year's Honours, I wanted to honour a particular unrecognised greatness in this blogging community.
This award is not given for talent (although the recipient is certainly well endowed with that) but for reaching out and making the blogger community a better one, leaving comments and encouragement to fellow bloggers.
The award originated here and there are no requirements of the recipient.
The winner of the 2013 New Year's Day
Community Blogger Award

Thank you Irene for being an inspiration.

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2013 with projects new and interests shared with friends throughout the world.
