Don't you hate it when...

Someone swipes their Oyster card on the reader before you have swiped yours? That happened to me this morning and then the lady got annoyed because I went through on her top-up.

I heard her exasperated complaints as I was walking out of the tube station but I feigned deafness. I know it is mean but some people have to develop some patience and personal space. London Underground is bad enough, I don't need an idiotic commuter to add to the misery.

Why am I writing a blog?

This is an interesting question for me and maybe those who actually read this (which is one major concern I have).

I like to write (I like to talk also but I can't really expand that to the world wide web without revealling my identity - and I need to be gagged on occasions) and I thought the best way for me to get in the writing habit that you lose touch with after formal education is to write a blog. I will admit, I have criticised blogs in the past (and I don't think I will ever delve in to the realms of Twitter. I did join up for less than 24 hours and was nearly failed to extinguish my account because the cartoon Twitter bird had tears in its eyes) but I think in this technological age it easy to promote your writing via a blog.  

I am worried that no one will read any of my internal wanderings, and would rather people give a negative comment than nothing but it is cathartic all the same. If any one has a topic they want to discuss, provide a list and/or rant about, please fire away!

Over and out.

My first blog!

Okay, so this is my first ever blog and I'm very excited! 


I shall be airing my grievances and joys to the virtual world, just to warn you now.


Speak soon!
