Tony Rogerson's ramblings on SQL Server

Here I sit on a wet, windy and thundery Sunday afternoon getting ready for my consultancy visits this week, fed up because there isn't enough time in the day and catching up on that horrible admin stuff and behold I receive and email - its from MVP Award admin and about my Microsoft MVP Award.

Yippeee - I've been reawared for 2007 for my activities in the SQL community; that's 9 years running now.

"The Microsoft MVP Award is our way of saying thank you and to honor and support the significant contributions you make to communities worldwide. As a recipient of Microsoft’s Most Valuable Professional award, you join an elite group of technical community leaders from around the world who foster the free and objective exchange of knowledge by actively sharing your real world expertise with users and Microsoft.  Microsoft salutes all MVPs for promoting the spirit of community and enhancing people’s lives and the industry’s success everyday.  To learn more about the MVP Program, visit: www.microsoft.com/mvp."

Ok, sorry for blowing my own trumpet blah blah, but this award is quite special and significantly helps the SQL user group over here which you will see going through a change in the coming months as my time frees up and I start to disolve some of the responsibilities out to other UK community champions....
