Let me know when you get it started.

Mailed me? Oh dear, sorry about that. Yes, it would be really good to show you No7. I’m sure there’s a direct train.

More of a long, dark journey so far, but it might get exciting once the first material is ready. I may just trial wp beforehand. Typepad ain’t bad, but it ain’t cheap either, so I’m considering the move.

Don’t know if you’re anti-spam filtered it but I had emailed you recently – it’d be good to visit you soon, see the gaff and say hello.

Yes indeed. WP.com is absolutely fine though, and tbh I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. It’s a far better system than it’s nearest rival. And the benefits of hosting your own (mostly all about how it looks) are pretty negligible now that most regular readers use RSS to read the pages anyway.

More importantly – a new blog?! Exciting. Can’t wait to see what you’re up to.

I’m considering wordpress for a new blog, so the volume of posts on the subject of hacks is rather worrying, as is the apparent need for technical knowhow.
