BLOGATHON… The Return of the Muppet Show Guest Star Caper Blogathon for One Night Only

 

It’s time to dress up right, for the recap and last post tonight…

 

The curtains are opening with more fabulous entries to the blogathon as Taking Up Room and I say goodbye to those Muppet Guest Stars for a wee while.

 

 

As many of my blogathon entrants know, there will always be a later blogathon post and recap for one of my blogathons due to those time zone differences. This morning, this meant I woke up to a record 5 new posts, with some of these posts coming through just before I went to bed last night and long after my published post for the day. So you guys have rightfully been added to your own new sparkling post published today. I can also promise, that there are at least two more entries to come with 2 late entries (that I know of).

It’s also time for thanks, and I’d firstly like to thank my often January co-host Rebecca from Taking Up Room for her assistance in running the blogathon. Also thanks for agreeing to this my most random blogathon topic and a wee reminder it’s your choice of topic for January 2024’s blogathon. I’d also like to thank everyone who entered with their fabulous posts and warm tributes to those guest stars. And brownie points to those who took the time to find pictures of their chosen guest stars on The Muppet Show.

I would also like to thank you as readers for taking the time to read those posts, click on those reviews and comment on these fabulous entries. If this isn’t you – and you want it to be – you can click those links below to find some enticing reads… and bloggers expect a comment from me, and please check the spam folder if it’s not showing. Now if you are ready to go back in time… here are those blogathon posts I published earlier.
