I've Been Thinking

I didn't choose a Saturday song for a bloglet yesterday.

To be honest, I've kind of gone off the whole idea (of Saturday songs, not bloglets).

You see, it seemed like a good way of making sure I blogged at least once a week after all the excitement of the A to Z, but I've noticed that that's all I'm using it for - something easy to write about each week - and it's becoming more of a chore than a pleasure to choose a song.

I don't particularly like the idea of this blog being a chore to write (or read), so I am nipping things in the bud and putting a stop to Saturday songs. It might mean that I don't blog quite as often, but I think I need to concentrate on quality, not quantity for a while. I hope you'll still come by now and then.

The Cookie Challenge

Remember when I mentioned I'd started video blogging with a friend and we were sending each other challenges? Well, I've filmed a new one. Do take a look if you're interested. I can't see why you wouldn't be interested in watching someone you've probably never met eat cookies ...

Side note: don't watch if you're eating - I'll probably put you off.

Saturday Song: Docteur Qui

Bill Bailey is one of my favourite comedians. He's also a very talented musician. This song is taken from his 'Remarkable Guide To The Orchestra' which was filmed at the Albert Hall a few years ago. If you like this, I've included links to more of his stuff at the end of this bloglet.


The Cockney Overture
American vs British News Themes
Cow Bells
Cars
Sirens

Saturday Song: This Is How You Load A Dishwasher

An instructional song about how to load a dishwasher.

I don't think it needs more of an introduction than that.

I love the vlogbrothers.

Looking Back

I realised recently that the vast majority of blogs I now follow and visit regularly are ones which I came across in the A to Z challenge. It's great that I have new bloglets appearing in my reading list on a pretty much daily basis, but I have to admit that because I've been spoilt for choice with all these new posts, I haven't really spent time reading the old ones - the stuff you wrote about before the challenge - and I suspect I'm not the only one.

So, I have a request.

I'd like you to choose one of your bloglets (blog posts) from any time before the challenge started and leave a link to it in a comment. I don't mind what it's about or when it was posted (as long as it was before April) - the choice is yours.

I shall start things off by sending you to this bloglet which I posted back in February. It has a video for you to watch and everything.
