I won’t be blogging today, as we are off on a trip to visit friends for lunch. Depending on when when get home, I will try to look at some of your blog posts.
Failing that, see you on Thursday!

I Ran Out Of Time
Because I wasn’t blogging yesterday, it has taken me all my free time this Sunday to answer comments and leave comments on other blogs.
As a result, I scrapped posting a Sunday Musings, and didn’t get around to completing and editing today’s serial episode.
I am going to cook our evening meal soon, so apologies for missing the serial two days running.
Comments Issue
As I was busy this morning, and have just got back from an afternoon out, I had disabled comments on my birthday post, (so I thought) as I wouldn’t be around to answer them and we are off out again this evening.
However, it seems to have affected other posts for some reason. I have just been fiddling around with the settings, and I hope I have cured the problem. (Which was probably my mistake, on this occasion) But if you are unable to comment on a particular post, please let me know by email.

Thanks, Pete.
More Time Away
We have to attend a funeral on Thursday morning, which will involve us stopping overnight in a hotel quite close to London on Wednesday.
So there will probably be no posts from me or comments on blogs I follow tomorrow or Thursday, just so you know.
Don’t worry about Ollie, he will be spending the night with neighbours who he really likes.
However, I will do my best to compile the recent serial into one long complete story, and that may be published later today or early tomorrow.
Something I Just Discovered
For someone who spends a lot of time looking at Stats on my blog, (6002 posts since I started in 2012, for example) I definitely took my eye off the ball earlier this year.
Something on my Admin page caught my eye today, and I chuckled to myself for not noticing it previously. On the right hand side of the page, below the boxes for ‘Save Draft’ and ‘Preview’, I saw this.
‘Twitter is not supported anymore’
My main reason for being on Twitter (or X if you prefer) is to publicise my blog posts. At first that was my only reason, but over the years I have followed other people on Twitter, especially many of my followers who are on that platform.
Clicking the link below that line to find out more, I was shocked to discover that WordPress has not been automatically sharing my posts on Twitter since May 2023, and will not be doing so in the future. Part of the reason I was unaware of this is that I do not look at my own Twitter profile, so I had not noticed that my posts were not being tweeted.
So for anyone else who didn’t know this, you do now.
You can of course share your own post on Twitter by clicking on the box once it is published. That’s what I will be doing in future. Probably.
Off Again!
Completing a very busy September, I will soon be off the blog again until Sunday evening. As usual, I will be unable to read your posts or leave comments, or reply to any left on this blog.
I hope you all have a great weekend, and see you soon.
Not Posting Much
Julie has a week off work this week. Today we went to Pensthorpe Wetlands Country Park in Fakenham.
We are out again tomorrow, and on Thursday too.
So you are getting a break from my posts. And I am sure that some of you will welcome that, as I am aware that I often post too much.
Back soon, with much more of the same old stuff.
A Blogging Apology
Due to being occupied with our family yesterday, I only had time to quickly publish two posts already in draft, and reply to a handful of comments.
Today, I am trying to reply to all the comments left yesterday, but as I also have had to take Ollie out and soon head off for the supermarket ‘Big Shop’, I have not managed to read and comment on everyone’s blog posts for the 11th.
Sorry about that. I will be back on course soon, and the second part of the new serial will be posted this evening.
A Blogging Thank You
I am still not feeling well enough to comment on posts and reply to comments on mine. I will have to start from scratch once I feel able to sit at the PC and write something coherent.
Meanwhile, I would like to thank everyone who commented on my recent posts, and apologise for not taking time to reply to you all individually.
If you are still celebrating the season, I hope you have a wonderful time.
A Busy Weekend
This is the first time I have logged on to WP since Thursday, and I am just back online after a busy weekend away.
I will be starting from scratch, as I cannot hope to catch up with all of your posts. The next episode of the serial will appear at some stage later today, and meanwhile I will try to reply to all of your comments on my posts.
Best wishes to everyone, Pete.
