THE LAST DITCH

Awards Ceremony Preparations continue…

The Blogpower Awards Ceremony is attracting some interest. I had three visitors at Last Ditch House in Second Life last night; Delicolor (Ian Grey), NotSaussure and Chip Dale. Alarmingly, Mr. Dale was clad only in a thong. (Now there’s a sentence no respectable political blogger ever expected to write).

I forgot to take a photo of Ian/Delicolor, but as his appearance was evolving before my eyes, perhaps that’s as well. I shall take one when he’s settled. For the curious, however, here are pictures of the Second Life avatars of the other two gentlemen.

No sign yet of James. If I know him, he’s in secret training somewhere so as to be as slick as possible in his role as presenter.

I wonder if he’s shopping for a costume so he can appear as the Blogpower Knight?

    It was a real pleasure to meet you Ruthie. It was surreal to have so many of us sitting around a conference table. Sadly it seems James Higham’s software isn’t up to it so he won’t be coming either. That’s a crying shame as he did all the work on the awards, both conception and delivery B^(
