Forgotten Blog Posts
The subject of unpublished blog posts came up the other day, so I thought I'd have a look at mine. There are quite a few - 52 in fact - some of which I don't even remember. Some are half finished, some just a few words or a title and one or two nearly complete. Some of course were reworked, renamed and published, but a lot just didn't make the cut. Some of the titles are interesting - to me as much as anyone else - as I can't think what they were going to be about. Two - maybe three - are not too bad and after a little tweaking, I'll likely publish them.
Of others I don't remember, one is titled "Fleece". What was I going to say about that for goodness sake? Another, intriguingly is called "Talking Shite" and yet another "What's Normal Then?" Both these sound promising, but are a complete mystery to me. Of the two mentioned above, one is nearly ready to publish and was written on 18th August 2011. It is called "Those Were the Beers of My Life." It occurs to me that it would have been a valid entry in Pete Brown's recently hosted The Session - Beer Moments, but too late.
Watch out for it soon.
I imagine 'Fleece' was going to be quite avant-garde -- a stream of consciousness, ATJ-style. Jazz blogging.
ReplyDeleteThe Fleece is a pub in Whitby overlooking the harbour. That one perhaps?
ReplyDeleteI've got a few unpublished blog posts myself, but not that many!
ReplyDeleteMy money's on it being Victoria Secret's Fleece Pant: "The Fleece Pant makes hanging out a time for style with blingy Victoria’s Secret graphics and an effortlessly sexy fit."
ReplyDeleteMuch more likely it should have read "Fleeced". But BrewDog Manchester wasn't open then, so maybe not.
ReplyDeleteBailey: I never know WTF ATJ is on about when he does that.
ReplyDeleteWas there ever a delightful shed brewed pong with the nomenclature "Golden Fleece" rather than the usual misogynistic "humour" ?
ReplyDeleteFleece would have been about cask jackets, I expect.
