I guess we all go through phases; right now I can't seem to stop an urge to put things out here and I don't know quite why, other times I feel less communicative, but I think that's just natural waxing and waning! As long as you keep it live, it's always there when the moment's right. I feel just the same about the relationships. That side of it is more significant than I could ever have realised.<br />Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075393268513251879.post-73739890295692404072014-01-24T15:55:45.844+00:002014-01-24T15:55:45.844+00:00My commitment to blogging (at least as I'm doi...My commitment to blogging (at least as I'm doing it now) is being seriously tested. It's not just my own pair shaped blog...but, the work computer I use to keep up with blogs during the week has entered a death spiral.<br /><br />The relationships I've developed with people through blogging is proof of it's worth to me. e.f. bartlamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05940814285264472785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075393268513251879.post-61825555479725023412014-01-22T23:03:27.634+00:002014-01-22T23:03:27.634+00:00Ah thank you John... same here.

I think it's a simple case of doing what we enjoy - and I enjoy both 'ends' of it, the reading, looking and listening part and the writing and sharing of my own. Why the hell not!<br /><br />I think the pub in question might have to have a lock-in...<br />Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6075393268513251879.post-72650578273201391262014-01-22T18:50:24.398+00:002014-01-22T18:50:24.398+00:00I'm totally at ease in your world C.

We should arrange to hook-up, all of us, and shoot the breeze over a couple of beers - other drinks are available. I've met up with fellow bloggers (and all round good eggs) Mondo and Piley <a href="http://johnmedd.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/away-day.html" rel="nofollow"> a couple of times now </a> and have always had the best of times.

I hear something I like and want to share it with other people, with a bit of chat included. The personal stuff I occasionally get into is by way of an aide-memoire, something to leave behind, as I seriously doubt that I'll ever be called upon to pen an autobiography! I don't find writing easy and I'm well aware of my shortcomings in that department, but I enjoy it tremendously and find it very rewarding. So in that sense, your friend is dead right - it is a vanity project of sorts! But I also really enjoy the interaction between the blogs and bloggers that I'm particularly fond of, now that I lead a somewhat more reclusive lifestyle. If I sat down in a pub with you, Old Pa, Singing Bear, flycasual, John Medd, Monkey, Kolley & Bel Mondo (where did they disappear to by the way?) and the rest, I'm pretty sure that eventually the conversations would flow in much the same way as some of our posts and comments do. I am indeed at ease in my little corner of the internet. Still working on being at ease with myself in the real world though.The Swedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237251779370596904noreply@blogger.com
