Golly, you are popular! I’m a ‘lurker unlurking’, paving the way for other lurkers! Have bought from Bead Merrily a couple of times. So now I sound like a stalker as well as a lurker…. eeep – I promise I’m not! Anyway … *ex-lurker waves hello at name-twin Frances* xx
I’ll *scuttle* out from lurking, I visit nearly every other day!, I’ve told freinds to visit too. I have delurked now and again, mainly to ask the odd question, which has always been answered, I think the last one was on the Draw Write Now box set – which I now own and has been a great success with the kids 🙂 I’ll try to delurk more often – not promising anything mind! It takes a lot of nerve for me to delurk.
I’ve bought off Bead Merrily too, oh and I bought the muddle puddle book bags, my kids love them for their weekly library visits.
*scuttling* back to lurk again.

I wonder where those two larger clusters in the States are? Anyone think they’re from one?
Yeah, problem with free things is you egt that ‘ahh, can’t get that bot of info moment’ 🙂
Shame the map (in this free versions anyway) doesn’t distinguish between lots of visits from the same person , (well IP address I guess – me and Helen wouldn’t be differentiated), and fewer visits from more people.
Alison, my guess on the upper big dot in the States is that it reflects one IP address of a large internet provider which lists its location as “USA” which Google then places at the center of the lower 48 States. Example: maybe AOL.

I’m with Ruth on this one, it would totally freak me out to know that so many people were reading my blog that i didn’t know. It freaks me out just reading my stat counter though so no real surprise there! 😉
Liz in Australiasays
I found your blog from an Unschooling Voices post waaaay back, and have been visiting pretty regularly. Love the blog.

Well I suppose you could call me a lurker LOL Although you know me. I have been reading your blog for about 3 years as I love the stuff you do with your girls. But stop mentioning stuff I keep wanting to buy as we may go bankcrupt!!!
I read every other day or so, although I’m not sure I’ve ever commented. So hello Merry & Girls! Like Catherine says above, I’m the same – your blog and muddlepuddle were the first things I came across when looking into home ed a few years ago, and together the two sites really inspired me and made me think, hey, we can do this. Thank you 🙂
Hi, I am also a lurker, I visit a couple of times a week, I have found your site so useful for home educating my three kids. Keep up the good work. Thank you.
See what a good influence i am on most people Greer? I dunno where i went wrong with you 😉 😉 😉
So, now whati wnat to know is… did the people who have bought beads find BM first or the blog?
And thank you for unlurking 🙂

Hi from Texas , madly waving! I am a lurker too, love your site and have found lots of things helpful for my kids too.
Maybe you’ll get a book deal like Pasta Queen ( half of me blog).

I can’t believe how many other lurkers there are; I feel far less stalkerish now… I love your blog and have been reading on an almost daily basis for a couple of years now! I might be brave enough to comment occasionally now I have said hello 😉
*waves hello* I’m a sort of lurker (have posted a couple of times) 🙂 I tell you what really IS scary – I use Statcounter and get a map there too buuuut you can actually zoom right in on the little dots until you can see that actual road the dot is located in!

I live in Exeter and know the Clarkes a bit, but first found your blog through
a Google search for “Brethren headscarf” of all things!! I’ve been reading for a
couple of years now and have bought from BM too. Hope I’m a “good” lurker!
Veronicasays
I lurk too, although do comment very ocasionally. wow I have stat counter, just had a look and found out you can even zoom on to the building that the dot came from
Katherinesays
I’ll unlurk too then! I came to camp a couple of years ago and lurk (when I find time) on a few of the blogring blogs. I found the MP site and list really useful when I was first looking into HE. To me, you will always be Mrs MuddlePuddle. I’m too shy to unlurk too often!
Greersays
I see!! I think it’s amazing you have helped and inspired so many people. You should be very proud. And smug 🙂
I think you have done an OK job with me actually! Inadvertent on your part maybe, but I’ve picked up a few things.. wasn’t gonna actually tell you though.. I am a little sister after all 🙂 😉
I’d be interested to see lurkers unlurk on my site too but they never do.. I must attract shy people.. either that or I’m boring!! 😆
Swiss Claresays
I’m your swiss lurker!
Went to muddlepuddle first, then bead merrily, and met you in the flesh last summer at mp camp.
Frequently make my way round the blog ring, and am a serial lurker 😉 Just think that people would be more freaked if I randomly commented every now and then.
Hello, unlurking in London. (Sorry, unglamorous dot on the map.)
I come and lurk occasionally, only occasionally because did you know that Bloglines doesn’t recognise your updates? Without Bloglines I am lost.

Aaah! Mini bead mix lady! Hello!!!!!
Another daily lurker here, from Texas. I love reading your site, and also the UK blogring.
But you’ve yet to penetrate Africa…
I’ll work on that tomorrow 😉 Hello Dortha 🙂
I’ll *scuttle* out from lurking, I visit nearly every other day!, I’ve told freinds to visit too.

Blimey, that’s going some! I had to look twice at the number – wait I’m off to look again, I still don’t believe my eyes 😯
That would freak me out if that many was reading me I didn’t know. Fortunately I am not that popular:)
*Waves at all delurkers*
There was a point yesterday when you could see different people in the UK – i justl ike the spread of dots really – quite fascinating!
Yeah, problem with free things is you egt that ‘ahh, can’t get that bot of info moment’ 🙂
Shame the map (in this free versions anyway) doesn’t distinguish between lots of visits from the same person , (well IP address I guess – me and Helen wouldn’t be differentiated), and fewer visits from more people.
Africa doesn’t know what it’s missing! 🙂

Actually, if you select the ‘view with smaller clusters’ the top big dot, splits into 3 smaller ones
