The Why of Sometimespace… I started blogging just before my son, Alex was born, as a diary that he can look back on one day to see what was going on in his early years – Humour, rants, politics, technology, cars and plenty of other stuff. Various family occasions and events get thrown onto these electronic walls, and a fair bit about me. Occasionally Christine will post an entry – so keep an eye out for any horse related stuff! I thought I knew a lot about my Dad before he passed away, but after talking to his old friends and colleagues I realised I hardly knew anything about him! I am often surprised about the things he did, and as such this triggered me into a bit of family tree digging….and the decision to leave a family trail for my own son and family. Although it was meant as a blog for Alex to look back on, it has grown into something that people can read without having to know me or the family. It has become a melting pot of words and pictures, and sure you may find some of it irrelevant but I hope you get something from the bits that you find interesting.
