Opposite side of the sun

Well it has been six months since I started this blog and lots of stuff has happened including getting a new job, finding a new flat, going to a wedding, getting a speeding ticket, going on holiday, getting up early (more than once), serving a stop notice with a police escort and how could I forget, getting threatened by agents of the North Korean Government.

I think it has taken a little while to settle into a blog rhythm and reading back I do cringe at some of my earlier posts which I think were, on occasion, pretty cruddy (and no I don’t want confirmation of that). However I think I have settled into a reasonable pattern now and for the most part can come up with something at most times that at worst passes a few moments of dullness when reading at work and at best is something folks like to keep up with.

I have some objectives for the future, including a few fairly ‘grand posts’ that I am keeping quiet for the time being as I don’t know if they will come to fruition because they involve more effort on my part than I have had to commit to any other post thus far.

Meanwhile I am happy my blog has got this far and that people keep reading. I think if I stopped getting any readership the blog would close down pretty sharpish. I wonder if I will make it to a year...
