The First Post

It is disturbingly easy to get a blog. Ten minutes ago this blog would have been best described as a vague notion, and now it occupies it's only little piece of Google's prime virtual real estate (physical location - no idea but I would guess it's well cooled). Contemplating this disturbing notion I have at least the solace that it will probably never be read. With that in mind the mission statement of this virtual backwater will be to record a selection of my views and observations in the sure knowledge that I can disown them as necessary - because in all probability only I will ever have read them!
