Causa Absentiae II

Me hard at work

Once again I find myself in the unenviable position of having to inform my countless loyal fans out there (yes, you know who you are) and readers of my blog (well, there's me and my shadow for starters) that the current lacuna in my blog posts is due to a very heavy workload (that's me opposite slogging away - dashing fellow, aren't I?) which leaves me no time to enlighten and entertain my large and dedicated following with my lavish servings of the thinking man's pearls of wisdom. 

But at the first opportunity I will be back with a new post in my continuing crusade to explain the world and everything in it to my readers and bring some light to bear on love, life and lederhosen! And the Universe, of course. So be patient, don't despair, the wait will be well worth it, as I will once again titillate your intellectual palate with more gems of penetrative observation and scintillating commentary, and maybe a bit of plain gossip... if you're lucky. 

Me rushing to an
appointment!

In the meantime I must dash, duty calls and work beckons and there's no time to lose if I'm to earn my meagre crust of bread. But in spite of the crushing workload, I have, as you can see, taken time out to inform you, my avid followers (wherever you're hiding), and set your minds at rest. Now how many other bloggers would bother to do that? Not many, I bet. My followers may not number in the thousands or hundreds, and may even struggle to reach double figures, but the handful of acolytes I have are worth their weight in gold - I can't afford to lose a single one of them!

Oh, and one other thing while I'm about it... err... never mind, I'll leave it till my return, I don't have the time and it can wait.
