Hi, let's start a conversation - right here, right now! If you have a question, I'll also endeavour to get back to you over at your place.

My general policy re comments
I value genuine commenters for the conversation they bring. Those aiming to link back and give credence to commercial websites (thankfully rare) will be removed.
Blog posts are kept open for your Comments for as long as possible - for at least 3 months. I've reluctantly taken the decision if a post comes in for a sp@m attack after that time, I'll remove its Comments facility. I've found genuine comments are rarely left after 3 months, but dozens of sp@m comments are :( Removing these takes away the joy that a genuine comment might be left one day.

hey--at least someone noticed.
ReplyDeleteHaha, this really made me chuckle!I love things that play on words.
ReplyDeleteI'm still having problems accessing your blog sometimes, but have NO idea why. Very frustrating! I suspect it has far more to do with my computer than your site though :)
I'll pop in when I can!
Stella Artois is a good beer, I'd buy it without the hedge promotion. (Wait a minute, my husband already does buy it.) Maybe they just wanted to hedge their bets. (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)
ReplyDeletePetoskystone - yep!
ReplyDeleteNutty Gnome - oh dear. I'll have a look at my web stats to see if there's anything I can do to make things load faster at my end of things
MMD - ;)
