Decided to actually make an entry :-)

Greetings all

I'm very new to this live journal thingy. My diary is a leatherbound notebook which lives in my drawer. I have no mobile phone. I can remember the age of typewriters. I have had *jobs* in the age of typewriters :-) Hopefully this gives you some idea where I'm coming from!

So what does one write in a Live Journal? First, I suppose, that I am an author who now and then gets paid for it and also a gardener. I will cheerfully carry on about my sunflowers etc as long as anyone will listen, since it's not so long since I moved from a flat to a house and am still not over it.

I have five pet rats who rule the house and let me out one night a week on average. It's ok if I work on computer so long as I keep the snacks coming.

I know I'm a dinosaur but I'm trying. Very trying, as friends will say.
