OK, on to the excuses, oh sorry - reasons for not posting.

1 - new house (see (much) earlier posts)
2 - new car - OK, it's not really a good reason for not posting, but it is a nice car. Just don't tell the LandRoveristi.
3 - new job. Probably the easiest excuse, it has occupied a lot of my time.
4 - new granddaughter. Rebecca is enough of a good reason to forget computers for a while, and when you add the others - Samantha, Rian and Ross - we have more than enough to be thankful for.

Since things have now reached a more stable state, I'm going to try to keep this up to date a bit more. Not too much - wouldn't want to be accused of trying to supplant the official journalists - but Im going to be far enough behind the times not to be considered a news source.

And don't expect any earth-shattering insights either. What is likely to appear are just comments on local and unimportant events, plus commentary on whatever bike rides I get chance to take this summer. Which, I am assured, is definitely on its way. Well, winter seems to be gone. Well, apart from the snow showers forecast for next Friday. Hmm, think I'm on four wheels for a while longer.
