La Blogathon Denoument

How remiss of me!

We are now well into March and the dark winter nights are seemingly far behind us. The lark is on the wing, snowdrops and daffodils are starting to appear and the first Jehovas of Spring have been round, knocking on my door.

So yes, here we are, well into the mad month of March (soon be Christmas) and I haven’t yet mentioned the February Blogathon – my own little self-imposed blogging marathon that I set myself each year, but in which I am now ably supported by some others.

So, how was it? Well, I think it went OK. Yes, I struggled with some posts – and I think it showed! – but all in all, it wasn’t too difficult. And it had the beneficial effect of getting my blogging juices flowing again – I have several ideas lined up at the moment. The current paucity of posts is purely down to me working away from home and having bugger all time and very little internet access at the moment.

I’d like to thank and congratulate both Bren and Graham for joining me in my quest and for making it look so easy. But, commiserations to Dave, who sadly fell half-way through, after such a promising start. However, his brilliant poem, right at the beginning, more than made up for it.

But also, thanks to you, my lovely readers (oh god, I’ve gone all Vanessa Feltz now – though it probably needs someĀ alliterationĀ to be truly Feltzian)… thanks to you, my er, radiant readers, for your comments. Writing this crap is hard enough, but knowing someone out there is actually reading it, worries me helps a lot.

And next year’s will be bigger and better than ever… if Dave can be arsed to see it through to the end! :)

    I’m sure he’ll be in good form for next Feb’ry, it was just that his holiday got in the way.

    I like reading your posts, whatever their content. Keep it up old chap!

    Proud of you Masher *sniffs, wipes away random tear with balsam filled kleenex* no seriously, I am.

    If I was any sort of a blogger I would counter your vile inferred slur that I couldn’t be arsed to finish this year! But to be honest, I can’t be arsed. :)

    Blimey, next year? Already?

    Anyway, congratulations to everyone. It’s not the whining but the taking part that counts.
