Monkey business!
There is now an army of editors across Trinity Mirror Southern (a vast empire that runs from the 'sands' of Southend to the 'beauty' of Berkshire taking in places like Uxbridge, Croydon and South London on the way) who have entered blog-land.
Some seen more keen than others with the task of producing daily updates - but secretly we all love it really!
It's always interesting to see what my fellow editors are rambling on about each day and what gains the most reaction from you out there.
In Croydon the editor of the award winning Croydon Advertiser, Ian Carter has certainly provoked some reaction with his rants about the BBC. Go to http://www.croydonadvertiser.co.uk it's well worth reading.
However, my favourite read at the moment comes from my colleague down the road at the Ealing Gazette http://www.ealinggazette.co.uk Since recently launching his blog Shujaul Azam has very quickly acquired a new friend - a monkey no less.
The Monkey is very quick to pick up on Shujail's daily comments and yesterday
in reaction to the big tram debate in Ealing his reaction was a real cracker. I quote: ' I heard we might be getting a tramway to ease the parking problem. Monkies like me like trams as it is easy to get about so long as they travel close enough to the trees to enable me to get out easily and also the great thing about being a monkey is that you can travel on the roof and don't need to pay!!!'
Anyway, enough monkey business for this time of the day it's time to get on with some real work as I have a busy schedule of meetings to get through before the Local Heroes Awards tonight.
PS: If you have any particular rants you want to get off you chest don't forget to contact me.
