Tempus Fugit Award


Gosh, I feel like Kate Winslet at the Oscars because my humble blog has received another award - the Tempus Fugit Award - this time from my fellow historical blogger, the Doctor. Thank you so much for the support! Here are the details:

"The TEMPUS FUGIT Award is given to writers & living historians whose journals represent the best aspects of the 18th Century. These writers aim to inform and entertain the public with tales from events, historic research & experiments and highlights from 18th Century arts and culture. It is the hope of TEMPUS FUGIT that this award will forge a web of friendship and knowledge that will aid in creating a tight community of reenactors and living historians on the internet and beyond. Winners of the TEMPUS FUGIT Award should pass this award along to six other 18th Century blogs that meet the above criteria, and include this text with the Award, as well as a link back to the TEMPUS FUGIT blog."

And now the six 18th-century blogs of excellence; my winners are:

Mozart's Offical Weblog
Jane Austen's World
Marie Antoinette's Gossip Guide to the 18th Century
Music For A While Shall All Your Cares Beguile
The Yale University Dr Johnson's Dictionary project
And finally, Nature Diary (Colonel Brandon: are you back?)

Well done Mrs W. You're acceptance speech was also less vomit-inducing than Winslett's.
