Pompous and Pretentious
So, pompous and pretentious… Strangely enough, that’s not a firm of solicitors. Although, if Cedric Pompous and Celia Pretentious, Attorneys at Law, are reading this, please don’t sue me, it’s just a coincidence, honestly.
I’ve written a couple of new blog pieces now, read them back, laughed at myself and scrapped them. Mr Ego is not my friend, I must not trust him, he is always setting traps to make me look stupid. When I get enthusiastic and start banging on about something, it’s so easy to jump on the banana skin and slide with it. 😊
So, if you do catch me sounding like a hybrid of Captain Mainwaring from Dad’s Army, Mr Micawber and a, ‘trendy vicar,’ just ignore me. I don’t mean it; I will probably grow out of it and I’m sorry.
Where was I… Oh, yes… Now, you know writing, writing is a little bit like God’s love…
