It's about the guest messages I get to deal with. Diplomatically.

I have blogged about guests and their requests. I called it 'guests and requests' because I'm imaginative like that.

Good morning. It's all gone a bit mental over at the Bear blogging site, where a post from a complete numpty (me) was sitting at the top of their trending posts list.

Which I wrote about later that day.
