Sick note: Part Deux and new blogs
Right, wrist agony is not going away so the blog has to go on the backburner for a few days. It’s not getting better and one-handed typing is driving me mad. Better listen to the doc and rest for a few days…
While there’s nothing doing around here, there are lots of new blogs I’ve discovered - some new, some I’d just missed - since returning to blogging that I really like, so be sure to check out the following: The Red Scrapbook, Emerging Writer, Eoin Purcell, Two Wheels on my Wagon, Dante and the Lobster, Shane Hegarty’s Present Tense, Rapture Ponies and The Newish Journalism. Special mention goes to three in particular: Nadine O’Regan, arts journo with the Business Post and presenter of the very fine Kiosk on Phantom FM has started blogging; and two mysterious types who usually work in music PR have started blogs at I Prefer the Obscure Remix and Shapes and Shadows.
Hopefully be back soon…

Ooh, thanks for the mention. Hope your wrist pain eases up soon- but that in the meantime you’ll be reading, listening to and seeing loads that you can blog about later.

Thanks for the linkage, Sinead. I’ll do the same.
Take care of your wrist in the meantime.

Cheers for the plug Sinead, wishing you a speedy recovery.

Maybe one of the staff over at Experimental Audio studio’s could whip you up a newfangled voice recognition type thingy?

hello there, hope you’re feeling right as rain soon
thanks for the linkage, and the info on the other blogs that i’ve missed!
my mam used to always make a hot water bottle for sore legs, or backs, or pulled muscles, maybe it would work for you wrist!

Many thanks for the mention Sinéad! Very much appreciated, and I wish you a most rapid recovery. As Red says above, I trust a suitable stockpiling of blog worthy subjects has been taking place over the past few days… I look forward to the onslaught/release! All the best now
