What to do.


I have delayed starting this blog. I wanted it to be perfect. Not to spoil the page. I've been fretting endlessly about what I might tell you, what I might show you, whether to do it at all. And then I found a very fine piece of advice. Somewhere amidst all the baffling 'techie' advice and the downright demoralising 'getting popular' advice and the wonderfully optimistic 'how to be a good writer' advice I found this superb sentence; "Just do it because, I promise you, no-one will be reading it." How refreshing. How liberating. So to anyone who is reading, I apologise for the unpolished result and in my defence, I can only say that I took some very good advice!
So here it is, my first post. I just did it. (I applied the same frivolous 'what the heck' to these oh-so-pretty chocolates too! )
