It was the first time, and it wouldn’t be the last.
I first started blogging in 2004, 12 years ago.
Here’s a screenshot:
Reading this again my expectations were a little high. The chances of an old school friend reading this I now know are rather faint.
The daughter who was just starting a new school is now at college and working at the weekends.
I’ve used several platforms going to 27 and vox after 20six.
WordPress is the best I’ve found. I use the App or Word to post now rather than the website.
I sit at an eyepad with a bluetooth keyboard rather than at a desk at a sit-up-and-beg old style stack computer. The internet is wifi and the house is chock full of similar gadgets all demanding bandwidth.
There are two more kids and we’ve moved twice in the meantime.
I blog when I feel the need rather than as a daily compulsion.
Life is for living not for recording.
A few of you have stuck with me for such a long time for which I am truly grateful.
The oldest blogs still running are almost ten years older than mine so I’ve got a way to go yet.
Thanks again for sticking with me and a big HI to the newer readers.
