This evening we held a social event at the Bridgewater Hotel in Worsley. I was delighted to welcome fellow blogger and Clwyd West MP David Jones to Salford as our guest speaker - I am very grateful to David and his wife Sara for taking the time to drive from North Wales and attend our event.
I had a very enjoyable evening and it was good to catch up with a few people who I haven’t seen for a while.
David gave an excellent speech and happily took questions from the floor afterwards. It wasn’t part of his speech, but I’m also amused by his observation that bloggers have more fun:
Research conducted at Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, concludes that blogging can help you feel “less isolated, more connected to a community and more satisfied with your friendships, both online and face-to-face”.
Quite right too. I feel more content already. Does having my blog posts shouted back at me in the Council Chamber count as being “more connected to a community” though?
