In January 2007 this blog was born. I'd tried blogging a couple of times with very focussed themes but they didn't really get any traction, so I decided to just do anything and everything related to my fascination for CP. The blogging world has changed a lot in that time and I've enjoyed surveying other blogs that related to my interests. I've had an opportunity to publish a few series of related articles from CP furniture through to the Chinese scene. Then there came the Favourite of the Month feature. Plus an ever expanding blogroll. I branched out into Twitter at a point in the journey as well and I feel that through the blog and Twitter I've got to know some good friends.
Somehow, in 2022, in doesn't seem enough any more. I don't really know what the future holds. What I do know is that it won't include this blog. I just don't have the urge to express myself through this medium any more. I didn't want to be one of those bloggers that just suddenly disappears overnight and leaves everyone wondering why, although I can't really explain why I'm making this move. I have already left Twitter ('though probably nobody has noticed). The blog will continue a little while longer. The very final Favourite of the Month will be on the first of June. I'll continue posting in June as and when things occur to me. There will be no Favourite in July 2022 and no more posts. At the end of July or beginning of August I'll delete the blog for good.
So, it's the start of quite a long goodbye.
