Fact is, we are now spending more time answering E-mails, responding to Comments and even being accosted 'in the field' to explain why the Bagsy Blog needed to come to an end, than we ever would have saved by not having to compile a daily Post! Add to that the personal 'heart strings' that were being tugged as we tried to put our Beloved Blog to bed, it was decided to give the issue a longer and much more serious rethink. While the 'memoir' will remain priority, some juggling of our daily routine (4 afternoon naps rather that the usual half-dozen), some reduction in page content and occasional absences of publication may allow us to fulfil both of these ambitions. For the near future, Moth numbers are already dwindling and will soon be absent altogether, while daylight hours are also becoming much reduced adding to the time we will be confined to Slight Return II and happy to fulfil both commitments. If 'statistics' are anything to go by, daily readership has grown rather than fallen over the days since our 'closure announcement' which we know in part has been due to avid readers 'clicking the link' repeatedly to see if we have changed our mind. However, we also know that many readers haven't so would ask you all to use any form of Social Media to regenerate or increase interest by transmitting this

Try just One Post a week Paul. Just feature the most interesting images you have taken in the previous recent days. You have to be selective though and not many similar images. With all the interesting things you shoot it should be easy.
ReplyDeleteOK Roy, am going to try every second day for starters and see how it goes and if not working will give your suggestion a try. It worked yesterday as spent the whole afternoon in Southern Argentina and the Falkland Islands. Only 10 years to go and loving it. Thanks Matey.
