Back in the early spring I received an email from a bloke called Gavin Lloyd Wilson. Was there anything that he could do to help? Well, I had been doing the bloggo on a daily basis for about five or six weeks by this stage, and I had the bright idea to start a news blog to add to the network.
Now, it is sad but true that although we receive a lot of offers of help, most of them don't amount to anything. People lose interest or they get distracted, or their circumstances change, or whatever, and nine out of ten volunteers fizzle out after a few months at best. So, although I gladly took Gavin on, I had no expectation of it being a long-term thing. How wrong I was!
Nine months later he is still going strong, and what's more, last night we reached a real milestone. He wrote:
Hi Jon,
I believe earlier in the year I estimated that we might make it to 2,000 posts on the news blog by the end of the year, and I've kind of had that in the back of my mind as a target to aim for.
Well, today, I'm glad to report we reached 2,000!
We're building up quite an archive!
Gavin
Bloody well done, mate! I am very proud of ya!
