On the rocks is a lovely eatery at Blouberg strand with beautiful views of Table Mountain

Hey Nick,

Why o why do you have FIVE Blogs!! Are you trying to sell your Body?

PS: I am not being mean, I just read your article about Bloggs, and it confused me a bit!?

Anyhow... seeing that you are one of ''us'' why do you dislike yourself so much??

Nick said...

er...I'm confused. *I* don't make sense?

Morning Nick,

"Beware: You are entering the Blogosphere

Is this your work??

And you think I am the one who does not make sense!!!

Nick said...

Explain this thing you keep repeating that I don't make sense? True, I don't always make sense, but if you want me to respond to something specific explain what you mean.

Dear Nick,

What I am trying to ask you is... Why do you write a whole article about how dumb (understatement) Bloggs are?? And then in the mean time you have FIVE bloggs??

And by the way... I did not REPAET anything about you not making sense? You are in fact the person who said I do not make sense?!

And I am not being nasty! All I am saying is don’t judge other people using Bloggs if you are in fact one of them!!

No, I actually said MushyPeas was a dumb blog (compared to what is out there and compared to what we could be putting out there), and also that blogs that report what you have for breakfast aren't particularly meaningful. I also said that I am not a blogger, but a writer who blogs (in my opinion), and there are things more important to me than the number of hits I get. If I am going to bother to put information on the web, then it seems to me worthwhile to put information out there that's fairly worthwhile.

I see you also found the time to post a comment under Non Ame (No Name) on reporter. Not sure why you are taking so much time trying to make a point, when, as far as I can see, you're not making a very good case, can't spell and aren't accurate in what you say. But you're welcome to your opinion, just try to articulate it a bit better because it doesn't make much sense (as in it isn't logical) in the way you've presented it).
You could say you think my blog is dumb, or that you think it's strange that I criticise someone's blog when I blog myself. That's fair, but then make the point clearly. You haven't.

Nick,

Okay fine so I miss spelled REPEAT big deal!

"I see you also found the time to post a comment under Non Ame (No Name) on reporter." - All honesty that is not me.

Like I said, I am not trying to be nasty or anything. (And yes I do enjoy your Blogg) But wouldn’t it be boring if everybody's Blogg was educational - come on! We need a break once in a while to sit back and have a laugh. And to refer to Peas's Blogg - Realise that we are not the only ones with mistakes, hangovers, boyfriend problems and the list goes on...

I just feel that you were really being nasty. There are tons of people (like myself) who enjoy her Blogg (and many like hers)

And please I have better things to do (like reading Peas’s Blogg) than to try and make a point! You are the one who took it to the second and third comment by not knowing what I was talking about!

One last comment, then I promise I will leave you alone.

And I am the one who can’t spell?

Maybe it is an age thing. I mean, I can tell you're quite young. But my girlfriend is 24, and Peas is 26, and although I like to have fun (perhaps less than some), getting shit faced every day/every weekend and then bragging about how dumb you were seems like a lousy thing to do with your time (and as a way to entertain others). Just my opinion. Thanks for the edits - took me a while to pick them up myself, but thanks to you I've corrected the errors. Want to volunteer as a 1ce or 2ce a week editor? btw if you want to email me use the email function of the blog.
