Once again, I’ve taken my eye off the Ukeblog ball for five minutes and more than two years have elapsed.
After this most recent Ukeblog hiatus, I felt moved to post something, having just stumbled upon a rather splendid blog, dedicated to all things P. G. Wodehouse. I discovered Honoria Plum‘s A Centenary of My Man Jeeves post via Twitter and soon found myself diverted from whatever it was I was supposed to be doing, as I enjoyed a pleasant stroll around Plumtopia.
I now realise:
a) I’ve neglected P.G. Wodehouse for far too long; I must revisit old favourites and discover new gems I never got round to reading.
b) The person expecting an email from me by 5pm is now disappointed and will become even more disappointed, as I’ve barely started putting it together.
c) My tea’s gone cold.
All signs of a very welcome distraction.
You’ve made my day for writing this lovely piece. I understand what you mean by a distraction. My entire blog is written during moments that I ought to be spending on other things, but I love doing it.
Reblogged this on Plumtopia and commented:
Taking a short break from shameless self promotion here at Plumtopia because, I am gratified to report, an outstanding chap by the name of Phil Chapman has said all manner of nice things about Plumtopia at his Ukebloke blog.
The credit is all Wodehouse’s of course, but I still get a warm inner glow knowing people enjoy the curated highlights here at Plumtopia.
How do you reboot something like this? Can’t see the button.
