A gmail invite
to the first person to come up with a plausible explanation for this google search.
Note to self: borrow a video camera and tape Dizzy chattering to herself and almost wetting her doggie knickers as we reach the park. And then send it to a show like this [via Anil Dash].
Goede nacht meisjes en jongens.

Looking for a Google Bomb? It only came up with 2 results, so it was close. That’s the only explaination I can think, at least a serious one.

I had to wipe up my computer desk after clicking on that photo of Dizzy.

C’mon Daisy they need to be more dificult than this. I thought everyone knew that the Yorkshire dialect was a derivative of the Altaic language group and that many behavioural and speech patterns are shared between the natives of Yorkshire, Siberia and parts of China.
Thus Huddersfield is deemed to be a herder’s field, which is naturally what someone would find next to a yurt - given the peripatetic lifesytyle of your average Mongol drover. It was obviously a search by someone unfamiliar with the etymological background of Yorks-speak and nothing more

Ghengis Khan searching to see if I can get an all mod-cons yurt Huddersfield. Where, after pillaging his way west from Mongolia, he plans to set up his new seat of power.

Its Glastonbury !!!! Must be. There were yurts there, for sale and with demo’s of how to make them…. some poor soul from Huddersfield was so tired with lack of sleep and too much excitment when they saw them, that they could’nt get to ask about them, but HAD to know more about them when they got home. Watch them Yorkshire hills - there will be yurts popping up soon…….

Oh dear, such good answers, how’s a girl to choose?
Well, much as I’d love to give you all one, I’m trying to keep the few I have left for the Project Blog 24 hour charity spectacular, so here are the results from the Luxembourg jury:
Elizabeth: Good idea but I’m fairly sure that it must be two words to qualify as a googlewhack.
Jon: Great entry - I feel really mean saying this but you have a gmail address already, I’m sure the good folks at google will send more in the very near future BUT do come back over the next couple of weeks as I’ll be auctioning* more off on behalf of the Macmillan Cancer Relief charity (see sidebar on the top left).
Huwge/Ian: Brilliant! I’ll send you both an invite in the next few minutes. If you had any spare dosh in your pockets and wanted to make an ickle donation to Dragon’s Tough Guy Challenge, I wouldn’t be arguing with you :-0))
* i.e. getting you all to do silly things
