Eight years ago, on 7 March 2013, I published my first post in my new blog then called Longoio. Since then it has been renamed Longoio2 and subsequently Longoio3. I changed the names because I ran out of free storage. I think I will not change the name yet again but decide to become less stingy and finally buy some storage.
I would like to give a big thankyou to all my readers of this blog, many of whom have continued to read it since its first inception. They are the main reason why it has survived to this present time. Grazie mille!

Not sure if I just press ‘like’ that you get it, or if I have to fill in the message box! Anyway, congratulations on 8 years of amazing erudition and fascinating stories.
Thankyou for your kind comment.
The thanks are due to you, Caro, for devoting time and energy to one of the best blogs in the world
Thankyou very much for your comment.
Wowsers I love the above comment one of but I would go further to say The Best Blog in the World. I justify as no matter what lockdowns, personal health issues, close family members dying through thick and thin as since 2011 spite letters and deeds you have proven to rise above such issues and keep us informed and entertained no matter what and all a voluntary service you deserve a prize. Many Congratulations!
Grazie mille topo!
