So here it is...

Welcome all.

Have decided to join the 21st century and start sharing thoughts and messages with the world.

Actually, thought this may be a new way of imparting large amounts of news (as if we have any!) in one foul swoop. Email seems so.... last year.

In my eagerness to get writing, I haven't yet looked at the design of the blog layout. Thoughts welcome. The only criteria to date is that it had to be brown. Like the Desert. And Abu Dhabi after a sandstorm.

A quick word on the title "Not Enough Sand". 'tis the answer to the age-old question of "What have you got if your lawyer is buried up to his neck in sand." Seemed strangely appropriate.

Anyway, more ideas and commentary as it comes to me.

Must work out now how to link in Messrs Smith and Sutton...
