Close-up

I’ve liked the idea of having my own personal blog for many years, but never got round to actually setting one up. So I decided that my one and only resolution this New Year, was to start a proper blog (yes I realise it’s already September, but the year’s not over so it still counts). I use a Tumblog for interesting links, photos and videos, but it’s not quite substantial enough for writing en mass, and I wanted to dedicate this blog to thoughts alone. Down the track, this may change, but that’s my intention for now :)

So. First post, eh? I’m presuming most of you reading this already follow me on one or more social networks, so you’d probably have a good idea of who I am. And although I have posted this before, it’s probably a good way to start for those who don’t know a thing about me.
