I only read blogs (such as Gnarlydog's), that I find really interesting. As a kayaker, I'm interested in keen, right to the point stuff with feeling, whether it's commercial, amateur, or whatever. I'm not interested in "I had porridge" stuff. Yawn.

On the topic of lots of words and lots of pictures: I wish I had said it as well as you did at the top. I think I came off as xenophobic when I only meant to make an observation.

I have achieved my initial aim of the blog with the Hunter Klan site and my own views are probably too dull for the average punter. I still get around 2000 looks a month, though. Go figure. I just can't find enough content to be relevant to that many people and I now consider my blog to be just that, a log of my kayaking life; irrelevantAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
