Lately I've been thinking a lot about a lot of things (mainly because it is one of the few things to do whilst pruning) and I would like to share with you two of these which relate to this blog. they are also currently relevant as I will be posting more often when I leave Margaret River on Saturday (finally!)
Firstly the content of the blog (there is a quicker summery of what I am about to say in the next paragraph if you do not want be be bored/mildly amused*). Whilst some might say the content is long winded, others enjoyable and others something entirely different, I feel I write to much and I'm not leaving much to talk about when I return. Many of you will be happy about this, but I like to talk so in the future I will be writing in less detail, with less stories so that when I return and show you all my photo albums or recall stories over a brandy when I'm 50 the stories will be new to you (maybe not when I'm 50). In addition to this I will be posting less photos of my ugly mug or of Australia's less ugly scenery. The less comatose of you may have noticed I stopped posting all my photos on bebo a while ago, mostly because it was too much effort, but also because I didn't want to be left with nothing to show everyone, and now I still feel you are getting to see far too much thus less photos.
To sum up in one, less long-winded sentence, I am reducing my blogs content so I can talk more about my travels to you all when I return and not bore you quite so much.
Secondly I have been thinking about the title of my blog, or rather the last word and the correct spelling of said word. Is it traveller or traveler or is it both. Likewise is it travelling or traveling? When I search the wide wide web it comes up with both spellings, this blog also recognises both versions as correct. I would like to know which is correct, if anyone can enlighten me please do.

Hi Rob, i think it is 2 l's.
Not related to what u have wrote on your blog, but i was just looking at your photo's and was wondering if you have had your haircut yet cos it's looking a little bit long?
Yeah, I it cut week or so ago, was gonna grow it long and hadn't cut it since February, but got bored. Long hair is irritating and the fringe kept poking me in the eye and just cutting that would have looked odd so it all went.
Hi son,
So just let me get this right, in future your blogs are going to be 'more but less' That's a bit like 'yeh but no but..' isn't it.
I also thought the idea was to make us jealous, but if we don't know everything you're doing, how can we be really jealous.
On the subject of the double ll issue, it's all to do with our wonderful english language, and something about when adding ing etc, there has to be 2 consonants between vowels - hence the doubling of the last letter of the word - and of course, because it's the english language, somewhere there will be an exception to the rule to be found.
Now after this rather lenghty and wordy english lesson, I'll let you get on with enjoying yourself.
Happy travelling
Take care
Lots of love
mum and dad xxxx
