No Tags in August, Thank You

Call me a curmudgeon, but I've decided I need a month free from Tags. There's a lot to commend the process of tagging, but the prospect of a summer (when it arrives) spent creating a litany of my favourite music tracks, things people don't know about me, my top five Wetherspoon pubs or anything remotely similar fills me with dread.

So, I've declared my adherence to Tag Free August. It's a new campaign, brought to you as a public service (at no charge).



Before then, of course, I've a few loose tags I need to pick up, courtesy of those fine Bloggers, Archie and Shinade. I hope to get around to these very shortly.

B-but I just tagged you in the meme 'Bloggers Who Do NOt Wish To Be Tagged In August!'

What a fool I look now!

Now that's a really good idea...Why didnt I think of making a No Tag August?! Perhaps I shall be a copy cat...

It seems to be the season of memes. And awards...

Oh, I say, Julian - you can never look more foolish than old Bill, and that's a great meme!

princess ecossaise - Bill always enjoys the flattery of imitation!

70steen - I am sure you have and will be tagged. No one is safe.

It's a long time since I heard someone call themselves a curmudgeon - and I do like it!

Tagless and Free - oh the joy!

Bless you in one eight day period I was tagged six times. Now there are many blogs that I occasionally visit, but, there are only so many names you can come up with in a week period for six tags. Not counting that it takes forever just to complete the final post including all of the praises. I too myself thought about asking not to be tagged anymore...at least for a while. But, alas, I am still seeking yet another Thinking Blogger Award....but that is all I want. You have saved many of us. You get a 10 for this!!~Jackie

Meme's can at times feel like pressure sales... I am guilty of tagging, but am starting to think I will just give people the option of doing the Meme. Some can be outright rude when they are tagged. I like the fun of them, so most times it really doesn't bother me. There are times though when I am tagged for the same Meme and that it bothers me because I don't know how to politely say I've done this one before....
I do give you kudos Bill for "just saying NO".
Peace!
