Back to Basics

I've got a new look.  It's supposed to be less cluttered, more calming; less off-putting, more inspiring of a desire to spend time here (for me, mostly, but you too).

Is it all those things?

Or is it just dull to look at and slow to load?

Thoughts please.  And if anyone really hates it (and knows a web designer who fancies a play on blogger) do get in touch...

  1. Oh, I miss your big pregnant bump with a tape measure round it! But I suppose that was a while ago now...

    1. I sort of do too, but I haven't looked like that for a long time!

  2. I like the simplicity - takes a long time to load though for something so simple which is strange

    1. Well, you were on your own... everyone else, including two of my nearest and dearest, hated it.

      Hence the change back.

      Sorry!

  3. Ooh, I'm not sure. It's a bit too minimalistic for me.

    1. You weren't alone. But is this really better?

  4. I've newly discovered your blog, so I don't know what the old one was like. But this is refreshingly simple and easy to read. Which, in my view, helps foreground the good writing. It loaded straight away for me.

    1. What a lovely thing to say. Thank you - both for your flattering comments and for reading.

      As for the design, this is the original reinstated after some rather strongly worded feedback from friends and family! Glad you approve anyway!

I know. I'm sorry. I hate these word recognition, are you a robot, guff things too, but having just got rid of a large number of ungrammatical and poorly spelt adverts for all sorts of things I don't want, and especially don't want on my blog, I'm hoping that this will mean that only lovely people, of the actually a person variety, will comment.

So please do. Comments are great...
