ÔWhatÕll you do?Õ they all said and I replied that IÕd a number of projects that needed attention, not least the exploration of the world of life as an Idler Ð thatÕs what this blogÕs intended to be. Then thereÕs the Chatterton thingy; Mrs LagorioÕs Diaries; a new Mr Polly for our times; a photo project; the Compostela book; crap clearing and a bit more e-Baying; the garden; a minimum of a book a week read; my running, swimming, cycling and walking; the garden; a holiday or two and a few beers Ð will I ever find the time?
