does anyone here have one?

Yup.

Just putting the finishing touches to it.

Yup. I enjoy the writing side, been going for about 14 months now. Doubt I have many (any) readers, but it does import into Facebook where I know people read it. Most recent post is a bit heavy though (to the extent that I've thought long and hard about posting this).

just started one myself, still in planning stages really, what's the deal with the 'get paid' for having adverts on the page?

beej, that's awful news, 100% with you about bikes and thinking time though

It helped writing about it too. I can understand the fatcyclist a little better now, how his blog must help him.

No idea about the adverts – unless you get really popular I doubt you'll get anything.

What are you going to write about?

terrible news beej my dad is dying and i wish i could put into words how i feel im sure it would help . With you on the bikes thing im doing a sponsored ride for cancer research to try focus my mind. Oh and on the original post i started one then realised i couldnt write for toffee 🙂

Sorry to hear about your Dad – dealing with things like that over an extended period is incredibly difficult (in my experience). It's important to allow yourself time out – a sponsored ride is a great thing to do.

Good luck with your ride.

Yes fatcyclist's blog is hard reading at the moment, dreading THAT post.

Mine is here

So sorry Beej.

Several others over the years – The Times called me a "serial blogger" once.

I'm a bit reluctant to post now as things have gone a bit heavy but anyway.

It's incredibly dull for the most part and serves mainly as a platform for me to record the times I've been out on my bike but very occasionally I like to think I provide a snippet of humour or insight. I used to get drunk every friday night and create some rather spiffing rants liberally scattered with clever swear words about a variety of subjects but since my company made us start to do implementation changes at the weekends (on Friday and Saturday night), I can't remember the last time I had enough to drink to start getting cross about something.

Sorry to read about your dad Beej – big man hugs.

Started this as a way to record people's bikes being nicked, of which there are not exactly a shortage in Bristol.

It seems to be generating a steady trickle of reports from unfortunate theft victims, and I'm amazed at how easy it was to set up and post to. It's also very visible to Google searches, which suits its purpose nicely.

Thanks folks.

Samuri – humour is better than heavy.

cheers beej

beej – the riding helps – its always got me through my dark times, especially when close family have been seriously/terminally ill. The writing must help as well – not something I have ever done myself though (but perhaps I should??)

Anyway, my recently started one is here:

I have discovered that whilst I am great at writing technical medical documents, I suck at other stuff…

trio25 – are the Ros and Gavin in your blog Ros and Gavin Baxter?
