Today I spent the day pondering matters of great importance. For instance, I wondered, if I was a heating and plumbing type bloke, if I'd be able to get more messages on the side of my van than 'O'Dwyer Heating & Plumbing', it's a big ask.
I wondered whether my new shades were too cool for school (decided they probably were).
I wondered whether saving the planet was going to get any easier - the plastic has to be hand delivered to the council (unlike the metal and the cardboard).
And finally, I considered where I am and where I'm going.
Then I pondered blogging about it all.
Then I did.
we are grateful you did.

I've been so tempted to unsubscribe from your blog over the past months. Maybe cos your blog is so different from others i read. But you really came from me with this post about the plumbing and heating van. Having laughed as much since "American Pie"

"Tempted to unsubscribe", I imagine there are many similar to you. Asking themselves every day - "why do I read this rubbish?".
Anyway, glad you liked it, Fraser.

I'm not tempted to unsubscribe Paul. These posts fill the caesuras of the day with, well, the same sort of stuff that fill caesuras themselves, really.

I have no king but caesuras.

Fraser, I came very close to unsubscribing. It was a difficult time for me. On the edge rather than in the middle.
But I now think Paul is getting his mojo back.

We should also be grateful to ITV News for featuring this very post in their montage about online stuff.

We also got a quick snatch of Georgie the cat. There is quite a discernable swagger to her walk today as a result of the national coverage !!!!!

Who would have thought - Georgie on the news.
