To the people who googled ’1950s housewife’ – Sorry, nice idea but no, really not at all. I’m a failed domestic goddess, really. I spend too much time lying around drinking cups of tea and reading books or reading blogs.
To the people who googled ‘most boring thing in the world’ – Mmm. Well, thanks, Google, for sending them here. You know how to make a girl feel good.
‘I want to kill everyone in the world’ – Imagine. You’re a deranged psychopath, planning the demise of humanity. So you google it, and end up looking at photos of cake, chickens and Penguin paperbacks. Kill or cure, I guess.
Posh jelly? I’m not sure I want to know what that is.
400lb woman? Oh dear, not quite but thanks for the morale boost, dear Googler.
Dog poo. Poo in a jar. Poo in a bottle? I actually went back and checked to make sure I hadn’t written a scatalogical blog post whilst under the influence. Who are these people, and what on earth are they looking for? (Yes, poo, I know. But why?)
Vodka woman. Me? Never. Can’t stand the stuff.
Gin woman. Ahem. Maybe. Alright, I admit it.
Completely bonkers. Evil vegetables. (But why would you google these things?)
Women being milked like cows? Are these people insane? Oh, yuck.
Badger poo. (Badger poo?)
Deer eating popcorn?
I think I’ve been living a sheltered life.
In other news, Tales from the Village is now the no3 Uk Gardening Blog according to Wikio, right below the Gardening blog of the Guardian and Observer newspapers. Not bad for a little blog that isn’t even a year old! Thank you all so much for reading, commenting and making writing this jumble of gardening, 1950s housewifery, badger poo and deer eating popcorn such fun.
If you haven’t subscribed (where have you been?) you can put your email address in the little box there, and you’ll get Tales from the Village straight into your email inbox. Exciting stuff.
If you’re a Facebook sort of person, you can come over to the Tales from the Village Facebook page for extra ramblings, photographs of chickens and conversations about what’s for dinner.
And you can also add me as a friend on Facebook too.
Phew. That’s enough social media trumpet tootling. I’m off to prepare some evil vegetables for dinner, like a good little 1950s housewife.
Inspired by Karen at If I Could Escape’s post and much cackling on Twitter this afternoon when I could have been doing something productive.
Pixie
HAHAHAHAHAHA! I love this post. Thanks for making my boring Monday afternoon a bit more bearable.
Jane
Excellent! Off to look at my own stats now, but I can’t think I’ll be able to match yours. Thanks for making me laugh.
Rachael
Oh do – I am still cackling at mine!
The Coffee Lady
I am particularly pleased with being found for ‘sexism and Tinkerbell’ but not so much for ‘no-one likes me talentless”

That’s because Google knows how awful my legs are. Hahahahaha! xx
Naomi
I really laughed at this. I wanted to wish you congrats on your blog ranking and also with the book. People search for me in leteral terms. I wish I could say someone found me through a weird and wonderful way.
Rachael
I think I attract loons. Present company excepted, of course. Ha ha. x
mymumdom
My search term are so boring. They involve Steve Backshall, Otis Spunkmeyer and libraries. I obviously need to spice things up a bit.

A bit of poo and some cow milking and you’ll be sorted. Moo.
Dara
I came here because I was looking for a multi-species poo expert. Are you telling me you’re not that person?
What I’d like to know is what deer poo looks like after they’ve been eating popcorn. Please provide full diagram and poetic description.
Rachael
Actually, you’ve come to the right place. What I don’t know about animal poo isn’t worth knowing.
Post-popcorn deer poo? @@@@@@@@ – like that. Hahaha.
Michelle Twin Mum
Well done on your wikio rating and thanks for the laugh. Search engine terms are always funny. One of today’s is ‘Cuz it is all about me me me me’. Ohh OK then!

Merry

Dog poo in a jar. It is probably some odd fetish.

Oooh, oh dear. I can imagine.
Deer Baby
Deer eating popcorn? Okay that was me too. I’m not sure I want to know how people get to mine.
Congratulations on wikio. You are smokin’!

Like a bonfire. Cough cough.
spudballoo
Oh congratulations! Well deserved (the Wikio rank, not the poo…)
My blog is so frequently arrived at via ‘sex with pig in a wig’. At least a few times a week. Seriously, who aRE these people?!

Rachael
Pig Wig sexers, obviously. Bleargh! x
Linda
This is enough to make me wish I blogged! I should do it for the search terms alone. many congrats on the recognition.
Rachael
Thank you, lovely cheerer-on-er. Must do more writing-about-gardening.
kyooty
i’m so amused that I found Karen before I realized you were you
psp I hate the spam thing, I always forget and get a “Ah ah ah” (think of Jurassic park scene)

I’m jealous too…I get really boring search terms. I want some exciting ones! Congrats on making it to no 3 in the wikio gardening, You must be so thrilled! Well Done!
Rachael
Thank you, I am! I want a little badge, actually!
Sue
I had some unsavoury searches relating to grannies on my Google analytics results. I’m pretty certain crocheted granny squares were not what those people were looking for.
Yours are bit bizarre though!

Oh, urgh. Bleargh. And yes, they are v odd!
Alethea
I was watching your tweets earlier and having a good giggle. People are really bizarre, but you seem to gather the cream of the crop
!
Well done on all the other bits . . . authonomy, gardening etc
Rachael
Thank you! It’s been a lovely week for blogging and writing. x
Andrew Strong
What I was trying to describe, via Twitter, was that the ‘Women being milked’ search may have been an innocent chef searching for the recipe for Baby Gaga – ie this:

Rachael
Of course! That’s slightly better than weird fetishists.
Deborah at Kilbourne Grove
Oooh, I am so jealous right now, why don’t I get these cool search terms.
And congrats on No3 blog and No 1 book last week.
Rachael
Thank you! This is the nearest I’ll get to being in the charts with my singing voice.
