About Me

Gerry Active: To write too much would just be an ego trip but then isn't that what a blog is? To think that anybody has the time to look at your blog is surely conceit of the highest order? So I am just an individual trying to make sense of this wonderful and frightening world with it's joys and sorrows. As this blog is not likely to be read by many people ( if any ) I intend it to be a kind of diary to myself. As we are always changing it may be interesting to look back and see what insights (or total rubbish) pass through my mind.Well I was wrong! People like you are looking at this blog. Amazing.I wonder what you think? Please leave a comment.
