Dipping the toes in...

I have been thinking about writing a blog for years, but apart from a couple of half-arsed attempts, have never done it. I think mainly because I have a multitude of topics that I am half-interested in blogging about. These are:

1) My Top 100 songs of all time.

2) A record of how my ongoing attempt to develop a profitable horse racing betting system is progressing.

3) Possibly a link to the many Tripadvisor reviews I write.

4) A few posts about my extraordinary family history.

5) The awesome fun I am having with my kids rediscovering Lego!

6) My own awesome family, life as an expat, and who knows what else!

So I was out walking the other day (I think that would also be an interesting blog post) and thought why not just have a blog of all of it. After all, it is 90% for me, maybe 80%. There may be a few curious friends and family who would browse past occassionally, but that's about it. I am interested in writing though, and have toyed with the idea of making an alternate career out of it, so it makes sense to have a go.

And here I am. Dipping my toes in the water so-to-speak, and finally having a go. If I can figure out how to make this page actually look half decent, then I may even stick with it!
