My Blog is a waste of time...Nah!

An entry in my Guestbook from ashley burnette …………..

“I'm not sure I understand what these web pages are for? it seems a total waste of time but I guess someone might find it to be of some interest.”

This made me scratch my head!  I think I understand what the web pages are for…. they are for me primarily. 

My boat log…. After all I could show it to BW if they want me to prove how long I have been moored.

My diary… well it saves me loads of paper and pencils… but  I could just write all this to a file on my computer. 

Nope,  it is ‘live’ out there in the big world wide web…. Now this is where it comes in very handy… My grandchildren have a map of the Inland Waterways, and their Mums read the blog… the grandchildren mark on the map with a gold star where their Grandma is! .  So you see, I am never forgotten by those little ones even though they do not see that much of me…

Then there are others who have found my blog… they must find it interesting to return to read the latest.  I receive a lot of emails, and a lot of entries in the guestbook.  I have gone on from my primary reason for this blog.  I am enjoying writing a few ‘tutorials’ on how I do stuff…. well others wanted to know!

So for me my blog is not a waste of time…. ashley guesses right when saying “I guess someone might find it to be of some interest”!
