Ptarmigan Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 I just sorted out my Blog today & am now wondering how many folk here actually make use of them? Just in case anyone here is interested in the Traditional Music of the North Antrim area, especially if they are thinking of visiting this area, they might like to check out my: 'Traditional Music of North Antrim' Blog I'd hate to miss you, while you were over here! Cheers Dick
JimLucas Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 (edited) Do I blog? No. Edited to add: Have you considered turning that question into a poll? Edited July 1, 2009 by JimLucas
PeterT Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I just sorted out my Blog today & am now wondering how many folk here actually make use of them? No. But if I did, it might be along the lines of: With the temperature dipping below 80 degrees, and my patio in shade, I ventured outside to enjoy a coffee in the early evening. A sweet, heavy, scent wafted over my garden; presumably from a neighbour's house. I'm not 100% certain that it's from a legal source! Ah; England in early summer.
chris Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Hi I'd have to understand what 'blogging' is about first , and, as with 'facebook' I really can't be bothered life's too short chris (technologically challenged)
Ptarmigan Posted July 2, 2009 Author Posted July 2, 2009 Do I blog?No. Edited to add: Have you considered turning that question into a poll? Judging by the limited response so far Jim, I'd say I have my answer anyway, so I guess a poll is not needed.

Hey Peter, I certainly couldn't write anything like that today ... it's fairly pishing down ouside now! Edited July 2, 2009 by Ptarmigan

My old Grandad read National Geographical until his death, in his late 80s. He was always keen to know what was going on around him & wanted to at least understand anything new that came along. I'm hoping that sort of inquisitiveness will keep me thinking young, ...... even if I am already starting to look ancient & decrepit!
Fergus_fiddler Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Beatiful pictures, Dick. Are you really playing or only posing for the picture? I've seen - and collected - your 'tina videos. Would be very nice to see your skills with the fiddle! Cheers, Fer

I'll do my best to make you envious with today's blog.
LDT Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 My youtube is effectively my blog....used to have a proper one but just don't have time to update now I have facebook.
Steve Mansfield Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 I'm a very intermittent blogger, and my priceless pearls of entertainment / inane witterings are available at http://lesession.blogspot.com. So that puts the score at about 9/2 in favour of the non-bloggers I think ...

Leo Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 No don't blog, keep diaries, or anything. It took me forever to get used to a cell phone and responding to forums. Thanks Leo
Ptarmigan Posted July 2, 2009 Author Posted July 2, 2009 Beatiful pictures, Dick.Are you really playing or only posing for the picture? Thanks & yes, I was caught in the act of performing! I've seen - and collected - your 'tina videos. Would be very nice to see your skills with the fiddle! Cheers, Fer I only have one so far, & thankfully my scratchy old country fiddling, is well disguised by John's Pipes: Cheers Dick
Ptarmigan Posted July 2, 2009 Author Posted July 2, 2009 Just for the record, I have a Concertina Blog up too, now. Cheers Dick
