Hello, blogosphere...

So, here I am.  And I still haven't quite decided whether it is a good idea or not.  Having thought about it for a while, and then thought a bit more, I have come to the conclusion that the blogosphere is a good place to dump my thoughts on life, the universe and everything, which would otherwise be going round in little circles somewhere in the deepest recesses of my brain, or else residing, unread and forgotten, in a notebook somewhere underneath that pile of (probably useful) junk on my shelf.

I hope it will provide an entertaining/thought-provoking/interesting/inspiring (or all of the above) read although having never really done anything like this before I may be finding my feet for a while...

But (and I never thought I would say this), I have an urge to unleash some creativeness in the form of writing, so here goes.
