Why am I doing this ?

I've often thought about keeping a diary but never actually lasted more than about a week. At least a "blog" can be occasional but since it also can attract comments from a wider audience it could possibly be like Topsy - and simply grow. I guess it depends on how interesting it gets. It should certainly be a platform for expressing opinions ! Well let's see how it all goes. I'm not sure how it all works.......but it's almost certyainly something to do with ether !
