Just catching up.... As it would happen, I just had an idea the other day on the way to a coffee shop. Because I keep a Moleskine notebook in my pocket I was able to write it down and blog it later: It was pouring down with rain as I walked, but fortunately I had an umbrella. Unfortunately for quite a few other people I passed they didn't. I did offer to accompany a young lady with my umbrella, but she was going the other way (she said). Anyway, here's an idea I had for promoting your organisation/business/club/church/whatever: You could have umbrellas made with your logo printed on it plus some words like, "This umbrella is given to you for free. Please pass it on to someone else who may need it after you." That way you're not only promoting your organisation, but generally being nice too. Sorry this is late. Just catching up….

All I needed was a little encouragement from a friend who said he enjoyed reading them and missed them. A life-lesson for all of us I think. So Dave, I thoroughly enjoy your cartoons and your blogs and it is the only blog I check on a near daily basis it is that good. I finally managed to write a blog this morning.

I thought of that ages ago, but the brim ruins your wind resistance. The Ford Trilby has promise, and I'm told can run on tweed. What, a Triumph Fedora?

Yesterday I did so much ironing that I ran out of doorways to hang shirts in. I'm a recent convert to ironing, so maybe I'm a bit over-enthusiastic.
