For many years I have heard people say "You should write a book, you're so funny". Well, I didn't quite get there, although I have had some poems published, and used to write reams of letters, detailing the intricacies of my life to those who's sole intention was no doubt to aim the contents of my epistles into their waste paper basket as soon as possible! But, life changed ... and so did the frequency of my missives.

Had it been suggested that I wrote a blog a couple of years ago, no doubt my quick response may well have been to tell that person to "blog off" ... but somehow timing is all that it comes down to, and maybe now is the "write" time for me to have a go. At least these musings will be aimed firmly into cyberspace, without being forced in front of anyone's nose, and reams of paper will no longer be destroyed whilst pouring out my heart and soul. I can't promise that there'll be no pouring however - should the need arise.

So, if you've come across this little "Newth sense" by accident, well, its been a pleasure to have you read me (as it were), and if you choose to follow me - you may well be in for a bumpy ride - so hang on tight ... here we go!
