I’d been wondering for a while if I should resurrect the old text blog as a sidekick to the photo blog, which over the past year has taken up all my blogging energy. Link the two of them together and call it a website or whatever the current buzzword is. If you had been a visitor to my old blog, you’ll no doubt have noticed the tendency to waffle on random subjects, whatever crossed my mind at the time. It did eventually become more focused (if you’ll excuse the poor pun) on photography and finally I got sick of having to write and just setup glassey alley.

But, as it often happens, I began to miss scribbling down random thoughts. The kind of stuff that strikes you when you’re out taking photos of a particularly interesting bit of wall, an old tyre on a beach or waiting for clouds to pass by to shoot a landscape. Not necessarily all photography related, but I’m sure it’ll gravitate heavily toward that subject.

I was sick of having to write, now I’m sick of not having a place to write. To expand a bit more than my photo captions or my twitter account will allow. Bringing the old blog back from the dead seemed an option, but it’s better to let sleeping dogs lie. Or dead dogs. Dead dogs lie quite well too I’m informed.
