I'm sitting in a Blog workshop, run by my friends Karin Herman of Wood You Like and Lesley Perk of Ashford Computer Training. As part of the exercise I have to create a Blog.....
.....so this then will be my attempt to produce a vehicle to enable my scattered, immediate, family to share their thoughts and activities. If I look at the immediate family, geographically we are really well scattered, from Folkestone to Vancouver and from Baltimore to Northampton and loads of other places in between. In addition a quick tour of the "world-wide-web" for "Tolsons" shows they are scattered across the world like a rash, and this means that we are, perhaps, genealogically interesting.
Another thing that I find fascinating, and who knows, others might too, is the range of activities and interests we cover from long-distance marching to rebuilding vintage cars and from sailing to riding horses. Also how we make our livings, from cooking food to landscaping - from building to selling utilities - from being retired to being educated from primary school to university - from administering business to looking after old racing cars - from teaching to audio visual - and all the rest.
Of course a blog is only as interesting as the participation it draws from those who contribute so - contribute - all you Tolsons out there - tell us all what you're doing - what your plans are - your latest planned project - successes and failures - any details of your day to day life.
