A Missed Anniversary

Yesterday was the 20th anniversary of our first blog post.

The blog started as an open letter to our friends and families, partly to counter accusations of "you didn't tell us that". At first we posted whenever we had something we needed to say and had time to write about it, which meant we wrote on 2 January 2007 about the fact we had bought this house - an event which happened on 21 November 2006. On 8 February 2008 we started posting daily at 9.00am. More recently we stopped posting at the weekend, because even scintillating writers like us need a rest.

Two weeks ago we also missed the 20th anniversary of signing to buy this house. Our only excuse is that the recent string of canicule (5 so far this year) have turned our brains to mush.

We recently lost probably our most avid reader, which caused us to question whether we would continue.

As you can see, we have decided we will. We have met many interesting people through the blog, and it would be a pity if we lost that.

I don't know if we have another 10 years of blogging in us, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
