AT THE RISK of offending some of my regular contributers, I reckon this comment by Timbone just about sums up most commenters’ approach to blogging:

Tom, another enjoyable blog. Looking at some of the comments I have come to a conclusion. Let’s say you put up a blog about whether biological travelwash was a good idea when visiting the Amazon, I guarantee that there would be comments about subsidised food and drink in the Palace of Westminster, do the rainforest trees lean to the left or right, and the myth about MPs smoking indoors.

So say we all.
