Surfing the Web
What surfers are typing into their browsers….
I have unashamedly stolen this idea from my brother with the excuse that mine is somewhat cleaner 
Thanks to some clever software I can see how people come to this site via search words and phrases, this enables me to have a clearer idea of what people are interested in and by what sort of a percentage. Here’s a few search terms which people have typed into their browser and ended up here for whatever reason. I have copied them exactly with the most popular in descending order:
when to plant onions/miles collins/how to cook sea bass/manfrotto 190xprob review/how to grow bhut jolokia/female chefs/bubble and squeek/scotch cold remedy/where does Gordon Ramsay cook/does Gordon Ramsay still cook/100lb bags granulated sugar/jokes-female chefs/photos of mutated water rats/I hate my chicken legs/disgusting processed chicken facts/foods for a single man/tabasco strikes/what can people do if their food hygiene is poor?/dinner plating fancy/myanmar collins etc etc…
These are just a few, female chefs feature quite highly, plenty about Canon cameras and the Michelin guide too. Previous posts on English puddings brought in a lot of traffic as does other ‘retro’ foods and dishes which proves, perhaps a point.
I shall leave you with one final one as a warning to being more precise in what you search for, I can only imagine the unfortunate surfer who searched for “nibble my t**s.com” was cross-eyed with frustration when this picture came up…..

these things are always interesting - nice to see what someone else is getting traffic on.
Long may it continue

Miles,
I don’t think we can do anything these days without being able to be ‘tracked’, photographed, registered etc.
Cid,
we shall have to be ever mindful of our ‘p’s’ and ‘q’s’ and most of all, our gorgeous looks

Miles,
Nice to see your webmaster has ensured you are ranking highly in the nibble category, you must be so delighted…
While focusing on why your brother can’t find a potential wife via his site, let us be mindful of one important thing…. a woman who happens upon this site will be won over straight away, it has all the hallmarks of a class act.

Elsie,
It’s marvellous isn’t it, all the searching I do and never have I happened across a dodgy site… and yet an elderly gentleman of my acquaintance always seems to get one by accident
Worry not about our Ps and Qs they are quite safe…. it’s the gorgeous in my case, I’m concerned about… I’ve got that Friday evening grey look, time for a mineral packed juice and a gin

Cid,
Thanks! No offers of marriage today, must have been my scent which put them off- ‘Smoked Haddock and Salmon Filleting’ by Givenchy

Well, they’ve missed out that’s all I’m saying!

Cid,
Thanks but several handscrubs and a shower later and I’m reliving the filleting all over again, it takes a special kind of woman!!

Miles,
Hah, I’ll see your haddock and raise you one sewer
Fear not I shall be working on some new emulsions to combat the above…. should these ever make it to department store counters, it’ll say ‘as tested by Miles Collins’!
