Advice…
March 31, 2008 — BondBlokeI was give a piece of advice today, the person who gave it will know who they are, for which I am very grateful. It puts a lot of things into perspective when one realises that there are friends out there in cyberspace, even if they are people that ones has never met, nor will ever be likely to meet. The person who gave the advice has been through hell on their own blog, and has far worse insults and comments thrown at them that I have had to endure here; the adviec was as follows:-
My only advice would be to build a support network (in the background if necessary) and to carry on what you you want to do. Whether that means the blog or anything else in your life.
This is very good advice indeed, and has made me sit up and think twice about leaving this blog to posterity. I have now worked out a strategy for the blog and will henceforth continue to make my thoughts known here and elsewhere I knw that there are people out there who will not always like what I have to say, but I suspect that those eople are so far up their own arses that they can no longer see the light of day…
Thank you fellow traveller for the advice!

I have experienced the same kind of support from many fellow bloggers (including you). In my lowest blogging moments, there were people there ready to pick me up and talk me out of exploding my blog. The good really can outweigh the bad. I am very glad that you are still speaking out.

Thanks for the good advice, it was most welcome. Many have tried to shake me out of the bottle, so to speak, but no one put things in quite the same way that you did; that is in term which would penetrate this thick head if mine. Thank you for that.
