What was that?

Well, I have just had the wind taken out of my sails this morning, and I am sat here wondering what just happened!  I do check my stats on this site most days, and it usually bimbles around 500 page views a day at the moment - thanks to all of you good folk who keep coming back!  But this morning, something very weird happened, and over 450 page views were recorded within about 20 minutes........

I have no idea where they all came from, or why, but they have made for a very interesting spike in my graphs!

The sun is shining here, and the wind is blowing gently. I have to do some phone work now and then I am going to town this afternoon: I have to interview a senior preacher as part of the last unit of the church course, and the chap who has agreed to do it with me today is a preacher of over 60 years' service, so I think it is going to be interesting.

These pageview spikes are very odd aren't they? I did wonder if it was to do with the title of the blog triggering something on Google searches, but I cannot work out why it happens occasionally either!
But if it bring sin a new follower or two, that's all to the good!

Can you come and interview me- I have been doing lay preaching for over 46 years! [no, leave it a while, the spare bedroom is very full of boxes at the minute]

Hi, I had the same on the Light and Shade Challenge blog. They didn't seem to come from anywhere either.

If I find out, I'll share. WS xxx

@WS - yes, it is strange!

@Ang - I think you have definitely made Dorset a potential holiday destination, and I'd love to come and interview you one of these days! I have to ask him about the "enduring convictions" of his faith...Feel free to add your thoughts! Hope the settling in is going well xx

sometimes it's the strangest things that start off the spikes. A lot of the time it is Spam.

Don't worry it happens, my blog hovers around 10,000 page views a day and then something I write can make it jump up as far as 14,000 page views. There's sometimes no reason, just what people are searching. xx
