Maintenance ...

Going to be playing with the blog set up over the next few days....

Also going to update the blog roll a little. I've taken the view of using it as my own set of bookmarks, but few have gone out of date.

The fallen are going to include:

ContraTory : who has gone inactive .. but promises to be back.
Drinking from Home : who has just stopped - no one seems to know why. ( If you do please post a comment below).
Cupcakes and Kalashnikovs : The Daily Telegraph link has gone dead. I enjoyed Christina Lamb's reporting and thought she did a good job of drawing peoples attention to the reality on the ground in Afghanistan - but she's gone now. She has a web site here.
Woking Political Discussion Group : This carries on - but no-one updates the blog ( as the founder is on some sort of round the world trip - lucky for her !).
