ANNOUNCING NEW BLOGSPOT IN THE INISH TIMES



ENVIRONMENTAL AND GARDENING BLOG SPOT (APRIL 07)

I succumbed to a cold a couple of weeks ago. I have been very lucky recently and have avoided having a bout for a year. Some wise salts say that a cold is nature’s way of clearing out the system, a bit like an oil change. Being laid up with a runny nose and not being physically motivated, I decided to sit at the computer and delve into the world of Web Logs, or blogs as they are more commonly known.

Blogs are very popular at the moment and puts a new slant on keeping a diary. I thought that putting one together for myself would be a good use of my time whilst I was laid up. I gave my Blog site the name of Inishindie, for no other reason than it wasn’t a real word and I could keep a track of it on the search engines. The next thing to do after picking a name was to start to download my ramblings. I thought it would be fitting to start off with putting on my old articles. What a job!! My gardening articles alone have been running for seven years so there is plenty of material to look through. I got completely carried away and spent the best part of two weeks trawling through old files and digging out not only a load of gardening stuff but the Clean and Green articles too. Up to yet I have put over 300 articles on and the list is growing everyday as I neglect all the other aspects of my life putting this together, but I am having a fabulous time! It makes me realise just how much the articles have relied on support and comments from readers over the years.


The Blog will rely on interactive comments and questions so I would be delighted if you checked out
www.inishindie.blogspot.com and added to it in some way with a bit of gardening wisdom or any questions or problems anyone could help with. If you have an environmental issue concerning Inishowen then you could add that anonymously if you like and of course don’t forget that we still need more household tips to help us work without the use of chemicals.
