More statistics ...

More than 2,000 readers have now read more than 5,000 pages on the blog: just under two thirds from more than 100 towns and cities in the UK and another 30% mainly from the US (Massachusetts, Maine, New York, Virginia, Missouri, California) and Cyprus. Recent inspections include readers in Benin, Colombia, India, Greece, Italy and Croatia.  Oddly enough, they don't stay for long or come back often! No-one resident in Antarctica has yet shown an interest: this is probably fair enough.  Tough journey back from there to the Hill.  But we have the other continents covered...

StatCounter tells me that readers enjoy downloading photos from the blog and you have made more than 400 downloads to date: nearly all the pictures people are downloading are ones sent in by Crickley people. A tiny handful are of copyright material where I have been careful to seek the permission of the copyright owners before posting them on the blog. I would only ask, please, that if you reproduce or pass on any of the copyright material that you acknowledge the copyright. Anything that falls into this class can easily be spotted as I will have credited it in the text of the post and also in the © labels at the bottom of the relevant post.
