Sometimes people say good things about this blog. Sometimes they are meanies. This week Pink Tape was praised by the judges of the Jordans Family Law Awards for providing “Accessible and incisive legal comment that is both informative and entertaining. Pink Tape successfully communicates with members of the legal profession, policy makers and lay people, helping to provide increased understanding in a field which is frequently criticised for being secretive.” Which is nice. Although they didn’t like me quite enough to give me a gong. 😉 (Oddly they didn’t mention my booky wook at all, which I like to think is just a little bit innovative).

I contemplated gathering together more plaudits and faint praise in a sort of “Testimonials” “Look aren’t I ace” thang. But on reflection I thought it would be much more persuasive fun to sample some of the comments I get day in and day out, not from the great and the good, but from the everyday amongst my readers. After all, it’s the real people that matter.
