Hello from Susie Lawrence

So, a blog then. This is actually my second attempt as the first one mysteriously disappeared into some black hole in our system. This just about sums up me and anything to do with technology.

I’m finally jumping on the blogging bandwagon, although very grumpily because I thought I’d finished, and less than enthusiastically so maybe it’s not quite the bandwagon, more the trailer that’s being towed behind it. See, I digress already, just one of the many fears I harbour about blogging. Others include:

· Waffling at length about things that nobody is interested in – so looking a fool

· Talking nonsense about something I am supposed to know about – so looking a fool

· Wasting valuable client time trying to look witty and clever – so looking a fool (while losing said client’s account)

· The chip that is clearly hidden somewhere in me that reacts with anything to do with technology preventing me being able to post anything – at least this could stop me looking a fool!

Stuart tells me this paranoia is completely normal for a novice and that it’s unlikely anybody important will read what I write anyway. Which is reassuring, kind of. But he also says this is a vital tool for letting people know who we are and what we do. So here I am, doing my bit and actually secretly getting a bit excited about moving even outside my comfort zone.

I was trying to reproduce what I wrote the first time but I’ve forgotten the rest. It was too long anyway.

First (well, second but nobody saw the first) blog post complete – and another fear thereby conquered. I’ve cheered up now.
