I hate it when people apologise for not blogging for a while because lets face it, no one really cares. So with that covered I wanted to draw a little attention to something I call commitment.

Then before leaving you send a stamped addressed envelope to your home address to prove you were there.

I was recently given a large box full of these very recordings done by my late Gramps which is a nice little sugar coating for the book project soon to be released....
