Morgana, I\'m afraid your blog is a bit boring
Sorry. Bit dull to read about how you got up and had breakfast (ran out of eggs so just cereal heyho) and hung about until dave and julie turned up, bit late as they were stuck in traffic on the A12 (when WILL those roadworks be finished i wonder) and were all ready to go when -gah- the starter motor jammed, dammit. Fixed eventually wth a bit of help from Nick who was around (thanks Nick!) although by then it was 2pm. But still time fr a pleasant spin around the bay, back on the berth at (still quite early) dusk 4:40pm.
See? Dull innit. Oh yes it is and it's poor buggers like me has to read it. Jeez.
First off, don't mention any meals or waking unless while you were doing the boring thing, something really interesting happened.
Much more intresting to read summink like New year's cruise with Dougie, the local chainsaw lunatic. Wel, ok, he's got a chainsaw. Actually, heh, it's my chainsaw. Or tell something else unique (or as unique as possible) about dougie.
And so on. I mean, telling us about meals and waking up times and going to bed times and that there was some crummy weather but then some sunny days is dull because that's the wallpaper of life for anyone. WHEREAS none of us know Dougie or whatever your other mates are called. We don't eant to know if he's 5'10" but we do want to know if he's a midget or a giant. The out of the ordinary is what interesting writing is all about - something worth pointing out, no? I bet you wouldn't bother telling anyone in the pub half the stuff in the blog. So what DO you talk about then? The internal workings of your mind, the quirky details that make your day between getting up and going to bed completely different from everyone else's.
Well, um, i've obviously been a bit horrid here, so i oughta tell you what i've done today. Which is, erm, change the gas, quite a mission as the gas bottle weighs a ton. Well, okay, 25kilos. The previous bottle was red, and the guy sez he's only got brown. Hm, what the heck, it butagaz on it, bound to be fine, I hope. I had a blue bottle once, and that was fine, and brown matches the cushion fabric as well. And then i stopped off at the wifi caff and ripped into morgana's blog. Hm, not easy is it? Well whatever, at least i didn't mention what i had for breakfast, which was croissant. Damn, now i've just mentioned what i had for breakfast...
So anyway, sorry about this. You could always just ignore it all, but perhaps change your tagline to "Bored? If not, read my blog!" which is *nearly* what is says at first glance anyway, which is why i read it, and then ripped in. After all, it was you started it using the word "bored", see?
Actually, perhaps ditch the word "bored?" cos otherwise others will read it and think hmm i'm stil pretty bored, really. Yes, praps that's the problem - the reasder is promissed too much i think. I mean, a blog would have to be incredibly rippy to un-bore someone, really, unles you were spiderman-type and even then you'd have to be good wth words, to stop it sounding a bit heyho, usual thing, swinging through the city rescuing people again today, got up at 8:15 and had some power bars etc etc, just like the films which also got boring.
hope this helps
