OK...here we go!!!!!

So I thought I'd give this blogging business a go. Being a technological neanderthal this is quite a step for me but I am embracing my inner Bill Gates and going for it. I'm hoping it will be a fun way to keep in touch with my friends and family who are spread out across all four corners of the world. So feel free to leave your thoughts, comments and pearls of wisdom...we're bloggin' baby!
