Great list! Reminds me of the time I heard a big crash in the street, went out to investigate it and my neighbour’s child was coming towards me saying “You can’t blog about this!” as it turned out they had crashed their car. I went all pompous “Oh no of course not” but in fact I did have my iPhone in my pocket in case there was the chance of an Instagram.
Love it. Thanks for featuring mine.
Brilliant – I was nodding along to nearly all those points! 😀 So true.
you write blog posts in your head and think about blogging even when you don’t have an actual blog yet 🙂
