Hello, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and
i was just curious if you get a lot of spam feedback?
If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can advise?
I get so much lately it's driving me mad so any support is very much appreciated.
It's a pity you don't have a donate button! I'd without a
doubt donate to this superb blog! I guess for now i'll settle for book-marking

forward to fresh updates and will share this site with my Facebook
