He got out of the car at one point to buy himself a snack, he was starving the poor fellow, while he was gone she let out a scream , and said "if you read about a bloke being murdered by a petite brunette you'll know it was me!"
"I'll testify," I said, "justifiable homicide!"

Dude, every single post you've made has been with links to your blog (which I'm not reading). Just put it in your sig.
Well done on returning the bag.

I'm very confused...

One post was a load about some girl who legged it on you and this is about a couple?

were is your point? were is the story? apart from trying to embarass people who paid you for your service, (minus the girl legging it but you could have got the money) what are you trying to say?

Not to dump on your writing too much but I'm sure you could make it a bit more interesting to read.

I know from just talking to taxi drivers on the spin home there are many good yarns out there.
Maybe just work on your writing style a bit more and make it more engaging rather than spilling out the facts.

Finally some constructive criticism, rather than the "oooh a mod left a negative comment let's all follow like moronic lemmings" tactic

No I don't mean to embarrass, although the stories are true and those concerned should recognise themselves, I change locations and details so nobody should feel embarrassed, others like the girl getting the "mindless self indulgence" tattoo, are asked if it's OK .obviously she wouldn't have agreed to the photo otherwise.

It's just a blog....... somewhere to put down my thoughts and hope it entertains??

Well I guess it's horses for courses, I get about 50 returning visitors and over 200 unique visitors, (some of whom may not have cookies enabled therefore could be returning??) each day and have just been given a paid job writing articles for a magazine.
I agree though, when I read my posts back I cringe, my excuse is most are written at 5 in the morning!
