To the right of the screen









Ok, I'm just going to try this as an experiment. You might have noticed that to the right of the screen I now have a followers space. Why I'm trying this you tell me? I have only spoke of this blog to a handful of people but would be keen to know who views. Squeeze in if you can. Left leg, Right leg, your body will follow. They call it walking. You one as well darling, show me a bit of life then. It's no good standing out there like one o'clock half struck. "Too late, too late" will be the cry when the man with the blog has passed you by.
