Well, yes, hello world! It would seem silly to have got this blog when I already have one at LiveJournal and a Vox.  But I once tried to fit a wordpress blog into one of my domains and failed miserably.  The thing is, I have no understanding of php or things like that (and hate them anyway) so was unable to work out how to fit the blog into my domain’s style.  In the end, I gave up. And anyway, it seemed as if it sucked up horrifying amounts of bandwidth.  So here I am instead, letting wordpress do all the nasty, fiddly code stuff. Nice wordpress, bless ‘em!

So, what to write about?  I daresay all first posts are rather bland and “oh my goodness, what to say”.  You don’t know me, I don’t know you. I can’t say go look at my LJ as it’s locked. If anyone is reading this, then just hang on, I’m sure it will get more interesting later on (I hope it will anyway).  A potted bio? Okay, well, I’m 45 and married with a 20-year-old daughter and 6 cats.  We currently live in Merthyr Tydfil, in south Wales but are moving to Aberystwyth in a month.  Our daughter is a student there and we just fell in love with the town.  We’re not actually Welsh; we came here from the north east of England in 1993 (though my husband is a  Brummie).  We’re Welsh by adoption.

Well, that will do for now. Bore da!
