How time flies. It's almost a year since I took part in Blogathon 2002. Anybody remember? It sounds like hell, staying up blogging for 24 hours, but was actually really good fun. Not only that but we did a pretty good job raising money for my favourite charity. Over $7,000 in total and enough to win us the prize for most money raised. That wasn't the only prize either. It was an interesting time. Not long after I was interviewed for Newsweek magazine. Although it didn't amount to anything other than being accused of "Blogorrhea" by some nerdy-looking guy.

Anyway, you'd think that, as contending "Best Blogger", I would be eager to take part in this year's event. Well, I am keen. I just don't know if I am going to be able to do it. It sounds selfish but that is the week I was planning my holiday in the sun and Karen has booked the time off work. To get over the guilt I am going to make my own contribution on the day as a lump sum. If you are one of those who would have donated, please do! I can't offer much in return, like I did last year with this site's template, but I shouldn't really have to should I...

If you want to reminisce or find out what happened during those long hot 24 hours, the whole transcript has been preserved for posterity. Start from the bottom and amaze at how boring it becomes. Hey, you try blogging 48 times in one day! I even managed to spell speech wrong in the last entry ;o)
