Can all you bloggy people please explain in idiots terms what you have to do with a blog and how you do it and how much it costs and everything else I need please? I love looking at peoples blogs but know nothing about them and doubt I would be very good at it.

Free!
Simple!
Write a post about whatever you want, upload pics quickly and easily and click POST!

We basically mostly use blogger (google based) Register and away you go!

You can set up a basic template from there (in a wizard, very easy) and then if you want later on you can set up a pretty background, up to you

You don't have to be 'good' at it, you can blog about ANYTHING

I am officially an idiot.

I decided to make my friend a card for her new baby. I knew it wouldn't be great but still it'd be nice.

Spent AGES deciding on the layout (this is where i'm rubbish because I can follow instructions but i'm not all that creative) I finally decided on one, it was quite simple but pretty. I had then printed off an insert with a little message...I stuck this on some pretty backing paper and stuck it in the card....

UPSIDE DOWN!!! :rotfl:

I swear if my OH hadn't been laughing his head off so much (in a nice way) I think I would've cried but I laughed too luckily! I am hopeless!! :rotfl:

I may try and make her another really simple one before I go see her (hopefully tomorrow) but not bother with the insert or anything too fussy!

Oh deary me!! :rotfl:

Jammy re your blog, I really liked the pic you posted of the frozen leaf...so anything like that really. But pretty much everything Mel said would be great

Hayley that sounds like the kind of thing I do ... an example this evening I have made something for someone (can't let on too much as she is on here) I decided to just get started and I did it all wrong!!! ... turns out now it looks quite funky and made it unique so I have just left it .... I will post pics once I know she has recieved it ... well providing she doesn't hate it!

Well I am now stuck ... I did everything it said Jammy but you never told me I would need to think of a name!!!!! :rotfl: I can't think of a single bloomin thing!
