Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone on blog.co.uk, and especially my friends here.

will be one year old on Tuesday, 26 December.

Mind you with this being only the 34th entry it has been very much a secondary blog, as I've outlined here previously.

My main blogs are Flighty, and to a lesser extent, BookBuffs both over on Platform27.

I nearly gave up this one some months ago but I'm glad that I didn't. Although I may not do many entries I really do enjoy all aspects of blogging.

The number of friends I have here has also increased lately through both invites to, or from, me. All these have been accepted, or chosen, by me as being good blogs which I like, read regularly and often comment on.

I'm making no promises but I hope that next year I will not only do more entries but make them proper ones as opposed to the rather brief entries most of them have been this year.
 

over on 20six is one of my favourite bloggers.

She also has a penchant for writing, and getting published, excellent short stories as you can see over on this BookBuffs entry.

is the title of the third, and last, Disappearing Britain programme being shown on Five TV tomorrow, Monday 4 December, at 9.00pm.

Actress Wendy Craig looks at Britain's enduring love affair with tea, rediscovering the rituals and traditions associated with the drink that seems to be gradually disappearing from British life.

Not in this home it's not!
