This picture represents exactly how I DON'T want my very first blog to go. To sink faster then the titanic. Wow blogs are hard. It took me nearly the whole day to come up with that starting haha. If the first one was so awkward to think of it doesn't really bode well for the rest to come :-S I've been thinking about starting this up for a while now but never really knew what to write about. To be honest I'm still totally lost about the blogging world. Maybe you can help and tell me how you got on when you first started your blog??

I don't really have a big set plan of what I'm gonna do each blog on. The reason I started this was to try and get myself into some sort of routine. I'm soon to become a first time dad to a little boy (Woooooo!) so every few weeks I will give an update on how things are going. I'm a big movie, game and gadget buff so I will also occasionally give reviews on some of the new and upcoming releases. And some of the top iPhone apps too :) If you like the sound of this let me know, or if you think its a bad idea and I'm totally wasting my time starting a blog send me some comments :)

Alright people guess thats my first blog done! 1 down, hopefully lots more to go. Like I said, have your say and tell me what I'm doing right or wrong.
