A blog on the landscape.
Ok, I know it’s been a while! Things got in the way, I haven’t had time, the dog ate my drafts………….
The list of excuses could go on, but I don’t do excuses as a rule. I had a Corporal in the Army who said “Don’t give me problems, give me solutions. Don’t give me excuses, give me results.”
He said this a lot, perhaps too much, not always in the correct context. He used to enjoy tearing beer cans with his teeth as well. We never gave him excuses and removed empty beer cans at the earliest opportunity.
Anyway, I digress. For the last six months I have been quite busy with work, DIY, family and getting all political (good reason to blog, you may think? Not so, politics could be likened to sex – The more you get of it, the less likely you are to talk about it!)
I have also been quite tied up with a local community campaign to stop houses being built on our green and pleasant land. The latter has tested my researching/writing/blogging skills to produce and manage a campaign blog for Wesham Action Group or WAG for short. Yes I am……… A WAG! Something I never thought I would be described as. The acronym could be seen as somewhat misleading if you are thinking along the lines of ‘Young, slender shopaholic with a lapdog in one arm and Pro-footballer’s (Soccer [US]) wallet in the other.’
Some very rich women
No, afraid not that at all! I like to think my fellow WAGS and I are more refined in the pursuit of personal happiness. We basically just want to speak on behalf of our community and tell major developers that destroying countryside is wrong, very wrong! Take a look at our ongoing work at www.weshamactiongroup.co.uk. I could continue to wax lyrical about how large developers are attempting to ride on the crest of flawed policy from Central Government….. blah blah blah, but there is no need.

So there it is, my explanation (excuse) for not blogging for so long…………………….
Now where’s that empty beer can?
