i am, needless to say, quite a chuffed trolly this morning.
i am.

Congratulations!!!
There's exciting.
thanks, :-)
it's given me an attack of the flibberty gibbets and i can't settle to anything at all...

Oh - I think your flibberty gibbets may have jumped blogs - I've got an attack of them today!!
are they in your tummy, or in your head? the former feels worse, but the latter is, incurable...

Definitely head ones... they've been coming on for a while now.
Congratulations, trolly!
thanks, :-)
i'm really chuffed, i am; still can't quite believe it.

That's excellent news Trolly, well done you. 
It must be a week for good news; I had a photograph accepted for the next publication of Michelin Tourist Guide Great Britain yesterday so I'm a chuffed bunny too.
hey, congratulations too :-)...and very well deserved.
it's a funny up and down world, isn't it?
all best

I've got no publication success to report, but many congrats, trolly, and I hope it's a turning point for you.

thanks, Alec, that's very kind.
i just wish there was more of a market for short stories, but they seem very difficult indeed to get into print....which is a great shame.

I know. Recently, I have taken to writing micro short stories (say up to 800 words) (some of them reworkings of old posts), on my other blog, Where the Rainbow Begins. (www.start-rainbow.blog.co.uk) No money in it, though!

Well done! Does this merit a wild Trolly Dance?

Well done Trolly - your writing is beautiful but also playful and sometimes even quite disturbing (this is a compliment!)
Here's to you
