Blogging

I promised a decision on my on-line activities for today. You'll be pleased to hear I'll be staying as a blogger, but far less prominent than before. Those who followed me on the Shell Gallery will have got a taster, in other words, a sort of diary, interspersed with the Remembering Today entries. There is not one today, as there are no casualties that fell on January 6th during any of the years of World War I who came from the Isle of Lewis. I'll also try to keep up with you all, but am not promising to make a daily attendance.

My digital camera, in case you did not gather from the Shell Gallery, has failed and is due to go away for repairs by the end of this week. So, no pictures for the time being. I do have a film back-up, but this costs me £10 per roll of film, so am reserving those for my images of wargraves across the Isle of Lewis. Weather permitting, I'll be visiting a couple of cemeteries this week.

  1. I'm glad you aren't giving up blogging. I am going to try to get back to blogging and visiting blogs a bit more now, but I don't think it will be a regular thing like it used to be. I just have to much to do these days. Hope you get a new digital camera soon.

  4. That is good news for sure. There are still a few aol journalers I don't see or hear from anymore. It's good that you aren't leaving too. Over the years lots of names have become friends and I like seeing the familiar ones sticking with it. 'On Ya'-ma

  5. Good News, indeed! We couldn't get along without you my friend! I haven't priced film here as I've retired all those cameras. I suppose the day will come when it's no longer available, anywhere. Linda in windy, rainy Washington

  8. The photo you have on the top of your blog is awesome, and we'll certainly be blessed to soak that one in for some time to come. Even if I wish a speedy return of your camera, of course.

    I think you'd miss blogging too much to stay away 100% completely ;)

  11. Guido, this is wonderful news. Blogging has been hard for me on Blogger but I think it would be hard anywhere else also. I'm just clinging to all my AOL friends at this point in time. Hope you get the camera fixed soon. xx

  12. So very glad you are staying Guido. That has made me happy. I have decided to stay as well but will not be doing as much as before. I made so many friends on here I simply could not turn my back and walk away.
