Yes, I know, some of you will be saying, “Blog? What the (ahem) are you doing?”, or, “You said you’d never do a blog”, and others maybe, “About time too”. Let me explain…

That said, I’ve never really subscribed to the whole blog for the sake of blogging thing. I was always caught between the “Who wants to know any of my nonsense?” and “I don’t have enough to say to justify doing it”.

I’m already involved in a couple of other blogs, but they’ve got a specific purpose, so that’s a no-brainer really. One is a promotional vehicle for my puzzle site: bimbogami, and the other is a light hearted side project with my old mucker that’s been running for a while and may even eventually end up in print…

So why now then? Well as if I didn’t have enough diversions that take up my time, I decided I needed another.

My plan is to use it as practice for a number of things; increasing my creative output in readiness for maybe writing something (yeah, one day), a forum for the thought process in the continuing running of the puzzle site and a platform for moaning about stuff (hey what blog doesn’t do a bit of that).

Enough of the preamble, on with the blogging!
