So, my first blog post. This should be fun.
Maybe I should start with a story of how this blog came to be. The day before yesterday, my Dad and I pitched a tent in our back garden. It barely fit, we had only a few spare inches, but we did it. It was all for my brother. He had gone on a camping sleepover, and wanted to do the same, so he and his six ten-year old friends slept in the tent that night. Or, they should have, but they got scared out there and trudged into the sitting room, where I intercepted them and parked them firmly on the kitchen floor, in a bid to not wake up my parents. They were up all night. It was hell for us adults (or, in my case, semi-adult), but they loved it. So I invited all my friends to stay over the next night.
We faced one disaster after another, from dad's Swedish friends coming over to his american pall dropping in for a surprise visit. Two of the three I invited couldn't make it, and we were pretty fed up by the time we got to the intent. Cue three hours of the most epic conversation, music playing and game invention ever known to man kind. We discussed a wide range of topics, from Harry Potter to Twilight to our families to our tastes in music to whatever we could think of. And one of the things we discussed?
Blogging. Which is why this is here. So, in summery-
Camping+disaster+conversation=Blog.
