A tentative blog to test the temperature.

Ten years ago I was writing several blogs on various subjects - F1 motor racing, Music, Classic Cars, Great Romances and, most crushingly, a personal journal that included my thoughts on America, memories of England and Africa, opinion, humour, writing and anything else that occurred. It all became too much (I was attempting to update the journal every day) and I collapsed, exhausted and thoroughly disillusioned in the end.

So this blog is indeed a Toe in the Water, a place to document my thoughts in and on WdC but with a determination not to get sucked into the blog whirlpool ever again. Here's hoping.

Thirsty

I was thinking about SandraLynn's suggestion of Blursday for Thursday when I realised I already had an answer for that day. It harks back to an old joke that I shall now regale you with (nothing like a spot of regaling, dontcha think?)

Two drunks are stumbling homewards. One says to the other, "Where are we?"

"Wembley," he responds.

"Really?" says the first drunk. "I thought it was Thursday."

"So am I. Let's have a drink."

It seems today should be Thirsty.
