Round Three

Back when I first started full time work, one of my good friends (SNR) started writing a blog. I thought that this was the best thing since sliced bread; he wrote about adventures he had, things he'd read, stuff he liked - I loved it. Soon enough I copied him. Mine was not nearly as good, but I enjoyed writing on it. I wrote about things I'd done, things that I'd read (TV week), stuff I liked etc, it was pretty much a straight rip off without his brilliant literary ability.

But then it died... or was killed, should I say, by Facebook. FB took over everything, mainly because you could look at photos of ex-girlfriends and stalk future girlfriends whilst writing about adventures, things you'd read and things you liked in bite sized grabs in the status bar. So I deleted it because of Facebook. Well that and I put up a photo from a site, didn't credit it and the owner wrote me a nasty email, so it was sent packing.

After a while I realised that this was quite a silly thing to do, as it was a great window back into my past - like an online diary. Thus, I started up a new one, which was plain to say the least. I've gone back to it from time to time, but I really didn't stick to it.

Which brings me to here. I was just thinking as I was talking to a friend last night that I forget what I've been up to all the time, but I'd like not to. I also thought that I miss writing and would like to get better at it. I thought I should blog again, as it really kills two birds with one stone. Instead of going back to the old site, I thought it was time for a new beginning (and a new name). So here it is. I can't really say now for certain that I'll be 100% committed to it; I'd like to be, but we all know about famously laid plans. I think I will, but only time will tell.

So here we go. Blogger 3.0 - perhaps a little improved, but still just a bit of a rip of the original.
