This is about "The Versatile Blogger Award", which I have been trying to tell the fifteen people whose blogs I nominated, on 1 November 2017, about their nomination for. Having tried numerous times to post a special comment under the latest blog post of several of the blogs whom I have nominated, only to … Continue reading Dear WordPress And Versatile Others
Building the Blog
A Catch-Up With Readers

There have been so many levels of learning involved in simply posting … Continue reading The Blog page called “Home”
Dawning of realisation
Note: "realisation" without a capital "R". I think I am getting my head around the mechanics of Blog Land, for my own little Blog Land at least! Having taken several years to get to the point of actually 'hopping onto the stage' of blogging, I have tripped over all the cables and potholes of the technicality … Continue reading Dawning of realisation
