Seems I am having a slight blockage of thoughts lately and although I am happy to say I have actually followed through with my list as per my last post, I can only get about two paragraphs into a post before I loose my train of thought and move onto "something else" (namely shopping). This does however mean, that I have started writing a few things and once I am done I should have numerous posts ready so my good intentions have not yet backfired.
