Enjoy your coffee Bob. I suppose your current situation is a bit like when you live like a King for the first week of the month and then bimbling along to the next payday (which I am doing now!). Keep going

Don't start a new diary Bobs! It is a record of how far you have come, and when (like, next month or something - fingers crossed for you) you are rolling in the dosh you will inspire others having a hard time.

How frustrating but some good things which help balance things.

Enjoy the coffee, I'm a tea girl x

Tea for me is an afternoon thing. I need the harsh kick that coffee gives you first thing.

Yes similar it's true. The way I feel sometimes is like one of those queues where you get a number and wait. And you keep looking at the board but somehow your number is never called.

I wonder sometimes whether the super long diaries are that accessible to new readers though? I know there are some names I see on here and just think I'd love to know more but the stories are years and years long. So is it less helpful to people after a certain point?

I think the same Bob - I don't read massively long diaries either. I started a new one after a year, and may do the same again when I get to my 2 year spot.

Enjoy your diary and the good thing is with first post being saved at the top you can still get a good idea of how far someone has come since starting it

I feel like I'm 'butting' in on long diaries and unable to 'catch up' so I tend to read and thank posts and not reply.

That saying I don't think you should start a new diary for that reason along you'll always have your regular followers and friends

I can't believe it will be two years since your DFD Cat! When Ally said it was 3 for her the other day that just made me think 'How???' and here we all are

Thanks that's nice of you. And true enough I suppose.

I hear you. I think that's why I stayed on the threads for so long. New week new chat
