Following a suggestion by AModMillyMum, here is our blog post thread, week by week to make it easier to find new posts.

If you have missed any posts, the old thread is here

First blogger who posts on Sunday opens the new weekly thread.

This week I kicked off with a post about Lazy Sunday Afternoon Cookies and yesterday blogged about teaching of foreign languages in Scotland

Over to you.

Oh, I have a blog Facebook page too. Its useful to link up posts, plus as I have a good proportion of friends who don't blog, they can veiw the posts directly, even without Google Reader.

I updated today, just abour pre labour www.chroniclesofmamak.blogspot.com and on twitter - originalmamak hope you find it entertaining and amusing. There has to be some funny side of hours of hell in labour, right?

Mme, just a quick thing about your Facebook. You've actually signed up for a full account, not a page. There is no option to 'Like' it, iyswim, and the page doesn't allow our blogs to be friends.

A page is easier to connect with than an account, as you then can keep your privacy, but share your posts. Do let me know if you want some help with it.

Ah, thank you. I couldn't work out which was better. It is a bit confusing. Will have a look and change it later

Yes, a page is definitely better, MmeLindor. You can use facebook 'as' your page, so that you can interact with your page's name and profile pic etc.

MmeLindor. · 07/09/2011 08:51

ok FB page

So do I now need to re-like everyone?

Have posted about my baby and her special relationship with my dog here

Question re facebook: does one have to give up one's anonymity?

Angel786 · 07/09/2011 09:14

Fab idea!

FlamingoBingo · 07/09/2011 09:21

Cheria - how do you mean? On a page, no one knows who you are unless you tell them. You just can't have a page without your own profile.

Check out mine - tell me if you can work out much about me personally from it.

Here's my post for today, in response to questions about what water is safe for making up formula milk.

FlamingoBingo · 07/09/2011 09:21

Ooh, I'm your first 'liker' MmeLindor!

Cheria · 07/09/2011 09:26

OK I have set up a facebook page here can't work out how to like anyone from my page and not from my profile....

FlamingoBingo · 07/09/2011 09:42

Cheria, if you click on your page yourself, there should be an option on the right hand side to 'use facebook as cheriaspage' - click on that.

Then, to go back to being cheria, you go to your profile, and click on 'use facebook as cheria'

Cheria · 07/09/2011 09:50

I think I've got it now

MmeLindor. · 07/09/2011 09:51

Just had a close encounter with a tiger at Longleat

I shat my pants when the tiger roarded - just about to scribe blog post!!

Cheria · 07/09/2011 11:42

Poor loves - how come they're all caged up? I though it was a safari park. They look so bored :(

Cheria · 07/09/2011 11:42

yes, i'd have shat myself too though :)

Amodmillymum · 07/09/2011 12:54

They bring them in at night - to keep them warm and then let them out in the day:

Cheria · 07/09/2011 13:02

Had to repost mine damn google here

purplemom · 07/09/2011 13:50

Hi there, I've just started blogging, my blog is a week old today. I'd love some of you more experienced bloggers to go take a look and let me know what you think. My most recent post is www.purplemum.com/2011/09/my-post-baby-body/
Obviously I'm blogging for myself yada yada but it would be lovely to have some pointers

Cheria · 07/09/2011 14:00

I think it is lovely. And I am going to use that green tomato chutney recipe.

stitchthis · 07/09/2011 14:20
