Now I don’t do this often, but this in particular birthday wish is for someone who’s helped me a lot over the past year. Ray from Freshblogger has been an online pal and has moderated comments and posted here a few times whilst I’ve been away galavanting.
Anyway, today Ray turns **. First person to correctly guess Ray’s age (apart from Ray himself) will be given a text link in the sidebar for a month for FREE! That’s right, to celebrate Ray’s birthday I’m giving away a link from a PR5 blog - just head onto Freshblogger to send some birthday wishes. If you want to buy a text link - check out our advertising section, where the Summer Sale is coming to an end!
Happy Birthday Ray - (don’t forget to send me a slice of that birthday cake)

oh this one seems easy Adnan… I wrote a post for ray when I first started blogging - which was just about a couple of months ago… So I remember reading some of his posts.. and he says in his about page and stumbleUpon he is 36!!
so he must be turning 37!! 
now I want that link….
2 Jay Sewik // Jul 24, 2007 at 4:46 pm
My guess is 31!
3 Jay Sewik // Jul 24, 2007 at 4:48 pm
Oh no wait, 36.
4 Michael Martin // Jul 24, 2007 at 5:24 pm
Has he just turned 37?
PS - Nice idea for a Birthday present. It’s very thoughtful.

The about page says it all. Since pearl guessed 37, I’m going to have to hope that he already updated his about page and he’s 36.

Thanks for all your guesses. Before, I should have mentioned that only one entry would be allowed *cough* Graham and Jay *cough* lol
Anyway, congratulations Pearl - seems like it was a very easy question in the end and just required a bit of research. Please tell me what anchor text and URL you would like!
Thanks for commenting guys!

Aww - Well done Pearl. I wish I’d checked my feed reader sooner.
Adnan - Hehe - His age was on his “About” page.
PS - The advertising link in your post is pointing to your admin panel.
11 adnan // Jul 24, 2007 at 5:44 pm
Haha yeah sorry Rob - Pearl was first in the gates - very quick! Only a few minutes after I wrote the post!
Yeah unlucky Michael and whoops about the advertising link. I subconsciously always point URL’s to my admin page! Lol thanks for dropping by and indeed Ray is 37!
