This time of year I keep my blinds shut all day so as not to overstrain the air conditioning, and put reflective folding shields in the windshields of the car.

Thanks anyway. <br /><br />And just to prove another aspect of Blogger's crapness, I've got a spam comment (since deleted).<br /><br />The HTML wasn't too bad once I started noticing where the breaks were, though I doubt I'll do anything very sophisticated with it, it will certainly resolve some problems.<br /><br />RB - with your blog's being so popular, and your conscientiousness in replying and dealing with everyone's comments, a thinning of readership might be quite welcome! Also, you were at a point, I gather, where you rather wanted to start afresh to free up your writing, so the move was right for you, I guess. It wasn't any trouble to follow you.<br /><br />Thanks Dave for the advice, which I'll keep a note of.<br /><br />I am especially impressed with Catalyst's cutting edge grasp of IM language, (thanks Elizabeith for telling me what it's called! I love hay rolls too) and with BB's mum listening to Gregorian chant over the ironing, as well as the fulsome praise in comparing my blog to this experience!<br /><br />Lovely to see you all.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-79633963329997074482009-06-30T22:07:26.040+02:002009-06-30T22:07:26.040+02:00Let me know if you need any help with the html sid...Let me know if you need any help with the html side of things for your pictures!

In my experience, this can take many months. But then after that, you're free to relocate the blog to anywhere else, and everyone who's switched to your new link will be taken there automatically as soon as you switch where the address points to.Davehttp://www.vianegativa.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37070024.post-25941769720511740492009-06-30T19:59:36.494+02:002009-06-30T19:59:36.494+02:00I'm sure you know how much I love early mornin...I'm sure you know how much I love early morning light, no matter how early that might be at this time of year!

Opting for Twitter would be like cutting off your arms and legs and saying now any dress fits. Shorter forms are not you: you resonate like the Gregorian chant LP (mono but hair tingling) my mum used to iron to and which kicked off with a slow serious toll of bells from the abbey at Solesmes mingled with early morning bird song. See what you've done? Stirred up a memory that has lain buried for perhaps forty years.
