A Toe in The Water

10-06-2018 After a couple of false starts I have put a toe in the water of writing my own Blog. I often write lengthy pieces on Facebook about my fishing and shooting activities but because many of my family don't share these interests, my efforts are deemed boring. This only spurs me on to write more and unfailingly my detractors continue to read and dismiss me. I have an idea that they are in fact closet fans. I would like to think that I have something to offer, hence my step into the unknown as a Blog writer. A famous Chinese proverb written by Laozi (and not, as often misquoted, including by me, as attributed to Confucius) says " A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step", at the moment for me that is just a toe. "Hold on Cooky, we are in for a bumpy ride".
