I’m going to be taking a short blog-break for the next few days - I’m going up to the boat to visit the Crazy Canalman. Don’t expect any posts till Sunday afternoon at the earliest
Talk amongst yourselves and no breaking the furniture whilst I’m gone!
Oh, and those of you that haven’t yet, my Johari [...]

I’m a bit frazzelled after drawing roadshow duty again today, so I am going to forgo a proper blog-post and leave you with the following little task -

It’s been an eventful week all told, for both blogging and personal reasons.

The CC’s moved to a new city, started a new job, and started a blog, all in the past week. Yes, the man who was violently anti-blog has cracked and joined the blogspot crowd. Clearly, a year and a quarter of knowing me [...]
