A Virgin Blogger

I had this idea that it would be fun to keep a diary of the season.  It would have been much more interesting if I'd done this from the start, twelve years ago.  So much work has taken place that you would have enjoyed sharing our suffering with us.  Now, though, when we're 'just running the guest house' is when I may find time to blog.

At the moment, we're finding it quiet in the week, though busy at weekends so this is a good opportunity to learn and practise this whole new world.

So much goes on in Swanage that our guests say 'oh, we never knew that'!  This is a way of sharing some of this news.

Last weekend was Blues Festival - a packed weekend of music when all the  pubs, packed out, rocked to the sound of music.  Declan and I went out Saturday afternoon, Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon - it's all only a few hundred yards from home so it's got to be done.  We're already looking forward to the next Blues weekend in October, but for now it's onward to the Comedy Weekend at the end of March.  Starting on Thursday 25th with a Comedy Quiz it goes on to an Open Mic night on the Friday, through to the three simultaneous professional gigs on the Saturday.  The first one was last October and it was a huge success - so we're doing it all again. 

Now, though, I have to find out how to make this all look more interesting - put up some more pictures and encourage people to find it.  See you here soon!
