An Experimental Post.

Seems that I spoke to soon in one of my comments that not much goes wrong with my blog. I seem to have lost all my followers, and my total page views, and there is no evidence that my last post has even been published. Although there is a comment from Emma, so it must be out there somewhere. This post is just a little experiment to see what happens this time.
Strange things are happening in blogland. Here is a strange picture I painted recently. I have titled it 'The drowning man'. Is it me that is drowning? Or am I the man in the hat? I really don't know why I painted this. I'm only the artist. What do I know?
Just previewed this and the followers are back, and the total page views. I'm off to have a look and see if there is any evidence the last post was published yet. Back in a minute.
It looks like my last post is being read, according to the stats, but there is no sign of the post title. It's the one about oatbran and healthy eating. Maybe the stats compilers are fed up with oatbran too.
I don't get lots of comments, but only to get one in 24 hours is strange. Thanks anyway Emma. If anyone else commented on what was, after all is said and done, a fantastic post, I am afraid I did not receive it. This not knowing what is going on, is so frustrating. Perhaps someone could e-mail me a possible answer.
I am about to hit the publish post thingy. Lets see what happens this time
Bye for now.

  1. Yes, unusually, I didn't get the usual amount of people daring to acknowledge me. my life is obviously too mundane to read about.

  4. Everything looks ok to me, apart from your followers not showing, but then again, neither are mine. There's always some problem or other with Blogger.

  5. Well I'm here and I'm new. Who's the man in the hat? Is that you? Bonnie and Sadie are more my style -- 'though the photograph is definitely intriguing.

  6. I've seen no oatbran, but I think perhaps you need a little more fiber in your brain. That picture is scary.

  7. All seems well now. Others are complaining of blogger problems today too.

  8. Blogger is saying that a lot of people are reporting the same problem. So you're not alone, and they are working to fix it. Hopefully they'll have the problem corrected so it won't happen again.

  9. Well, let's try to get your comments back up. I thought you to be the man in the hat watching the man drown. Maybe it symbolizes the old you being gone and the new and improved you watching the transformation. Or maybe I'm just full of it.

  13. Hi John, the blog seemed OK today but then blogger is notorious for strange things happening. We don't use blogger to compose posts but use Live Writer from Microsoft, a free editor. As strange as the art may be, I liked it!
