toujours ici!

Two years ago exactly I started this bloggery, while seated at the Argos-bought desk in Hornsey Lane while my wife watched The Master's golf - I'd been banished from the TV area because I make too many silly comments about the golfers' names. And today, the same Master's was on (different winner though), same Augusta, but this time at a decent hour (ie, before Easter lunch; I made a long-awaited roast, naturally). Back then the blog was an 'I-should-be-writing-about-medieval-stuff' (procrastination being the mother of invention) distraction, then it was a 'going to America' blog, then it was a 'coming to America' blog, then it was a 'living in America' expatriate blog, then it was a 'what you talking about willis' blog, then it was a 'still living in America' blog, then it was suddenly a sketchblog, at least 75% of the time. I've not been writing as much as I've been drawing, I've not been thinking as much as I've been daydreaming. But I'm still at the desk, holding in the jokes about bogeys on the green (it's allergy season), nibbling a cadbury's cream egg and sipping a cuppa tea, albeit 5000 miles west of usual. Happy Easter!

Here's to Pete and his blog! Long may they prosper, and let that blog continue to be nice and fat with all sorts of inspiring stuff. Two years without one single rubbish entry is impressive.
Happy Easter!

many thanks rq, (your blog's far better though), and i've decided on a pseudonym, 'je ne suis pas pete'. A nod to my fellow charleroi citoyen, rene magritte; best i can do (on a budget). New song going online.

Aha! Still MySpace, presumably? Will track you down sooner than you think...
