Blogging All Over the World
There are lots and lots of blogs out there, of course: here are two new ones which I'd like to mention:
Pixie's Ponderings, written by Debby who is currently to be found in Sebring, Florida, and who doesn't like being greeted by a Wal-Mart greeter and I don't blame her:
and Compost your Billet, written by my friend Christine in New Zealand - we've been friends since the mid-1970s, and she's about to visit Europe again soon. You may, perhaps, be wondering what the strange title of her blog means. When you're in France - and possibly other French-speaking places too, I know not - there are signs at railway stations which say "Compostez Votre Billet". What this means is "put your ticket in the machine which will stamp it".
Quite why this must be, I have never worked out: they check your ticket on the train anyway so what the point of all this composting is I don't know.
Anyway, I hope that Debby and Christine will enjoy blogging as much as I do and I look forward to reading what they write.
