When I read this post, to my astonishment I found that I wasn't actually following you! I thought I'd followed you ages ago, but I often lose track...
That has been rectified now, and I think I'm follower no. 704. That's a nice idea, rewarding the "milestone" followers - I might try it.
I have no idea who's following me. I tend not to look, because if they later unfollow me, I might feel discouraged. Pathetic really!
