blog V facebook.

It's only us bloggers who read blogs.

I'm sure that the only people who read blogs are other blog writers. I don't have much proof, but I sent a link to my Facebook friends and they all had a look. They made there comments, how they liked the tone of the blog and this and that. But at the end of the day they don't return. Even the person who first asked me to keep a blog.

I'm not that bothered, I would sooner write for ten people who enjoy my trials and tribulations than a hundred people who feel obligated to read because they know me.

It is strange I write completely differently for facebook. There I have to have a punchy one liner or a very short story that makes people smile.

Here are a couple of my recent posts on Facebook, but remember I'm writing to people who know me.

'I made cinders for tea, two spuds and a bratwurst burnt to a cinder. Jam butties (sandwiches) then.'

'I've been finding my mouth wash a bit ineffective, so I've made my own mix. it's 1 part Domestos, 1 part Listerine and 2 shovels of rock salt. I works for over 21 minutes. I'm going to start work on a deodorant next, I'm thinking a creosote base.'

'I shaved my beard off yesterday and it felt good,but then I noticed that little tuft of hair on my shoulder so I shaved that off. I jumped in the shower and still had the razor out so I shaved my lower legs, this made the top of my legs look bad so I shaved them as well. At this point I realised that my belly hair was a bit neanderthal so I shaved that off, this led to my chest hair all grey so that was off too. By now the razor was a bit blunt as travelled down my arms, nicking my elbows. The ring of my arse was the hardest having no mirror. I finished off with my head and armpits. I'll have to tell the folks at the golf club I had chemotherapy.' This one made me laugh.

It makes people laugh, so that makes me happy. My Grandson says 'You must spend hours writing those.' I told him he was wrong and I just exaggerate real life.

I think I finish with a few photo's of some of my sisters. I'm a millionaire when It come to sisters. These are Number 3 & 5.

Good night.
