What's the Craic?

NB: For those of you unfamiliar with irish sayings "craic" is derived from a gaelic word that alludes to the unmistakable combination of chat, laughter, music and the special atmosphere that accompanies these things. I like to think of it as having a good time, enjoying the company of others, friendship, fun and a lot more besides.

NB: For those of you with whom I work, the use of the word "craic" in this instance bears no relation whatsoever to the illegal drug, crack, maunfactured from cocaine to become smokeable, so there is no need to fill out any Occurance Reports. Thanks!


So, this be my maiden voyage into the blogging fray. It is my hope that on this voyage i'll have the opportunity to share some good craic with you all. Everybody is welcome and if I can hold your attention for 30-60 seconds, well, it's a mighty feat in my books! I tend to process the majority of life's events and happening's via the left side of my brain, so the results can be quite colourful or completely baffling. I have gained some skill in using the right side of my brain to tackle such skills as structure and organisation, although at times they still seem very foreign to me. So, there may be some days when this blog has some nice structure and organisation to it but please don't expect it on a consistent basis. I will only let you down. My alpologies to all you "righties." I'm sure it was a wise southpaw that once uttered "Right is nice but left is best!"

So hey, kick back, somebody put on the tunes and enjoy the atmosphere...
