**START HERE**

OK - getting the hang of this blog thing now, by no means a master, nor are we newbies. One of the things I love about building and this blog is learning cool new stuff!

Now you have told us about the zillion other building blogs out there, we have put the best in the links on the right hand column (where are the British ones?).

Reading these also helped us make two more decisions:

• because this is supposed to be helpful to others doing the same thing, and not just getting a vicarious kick out of it (but it is OK to enjoy the kick too), we will title the blog entries in meaningful ways - dull but useful
• because this blog started some months after the conversion, we will prefix the old pictures and stories from now on with the word "REWIND" in the title
