Nominees and winners:
Clap for everyone, please. We all deserve a clap for working hard on our blogs. If your name is called out, you can walk to the stage, collect your trophy and you will be asked to give a thank you speech. It’s not the Oscars, go over the top, cry, shout, jump, dance, you have plenty of time. Afterwards you will go down the steps on your right (left as you look at the stage) and have your photo taken with the category sponsor.
