Last December Perking the Pansies was permanently blocked by the Turkish internet police. I threw a hissy fit at the prospect of a firm hand on my door knob, a frisk by a frisky conscript and instant deportation. It all turned out to be a storm in a çay cup. My inconsequential contribution to the blogosphere was simply caught by lazy censorship that uses a scatter gun approach to punish the innocent and the guilty alike. Perking the Pansies became, as the Americans say, ‘collateral damage‘. I had to abandon my old site hosted by Google and move lock, stock and barrel to WordPress. A couple of days ago I noticed that the page hits on my new site overtook those of the old for the first time. Nowadays I need only the slightest excuse to make merry so I raised a glass in thanks.
I’m endlessly fascinated and bemused by the search terms that bring some surfers to my website. I’ve already mentioned ‘Yalikavak Sex’ and ‘Gay Hairy Turkish Men’ but there is also:
- Porn Torkish
- Gumbet porno
- Turk Gay Sitesi
- Thermal Bloomers
- Sex Sitesi
- Gay Calis Beach
- Middleaged Sexpats
- Gundogan Gay
- Lyrics to I’m as Gay as a Daisy
A definitive gay guide to Turkey for the curious traveller seeking a little relief in the sun is sorely needed. Sadly it would be a thin digest and probably banned.
Perking the Pansies 
I would like to see your combined web counter surpass a common formulaused by bloggers:-
=[(1,000 x your age) + waist size] * average number of daily alcohol units
Good luck with the challenge
PS I made this metric up but it does have a certain ring to it. Let’s Call it the “brum quotient”

Well that works out at 50,050 which I should reach in 50 days! How weirdly supernatural.
