I hit quite a milestone last week. My last blog was my 200th written on Ben Blogs since I started in 2008. I have written all sorts of columns for a while and feel quite honoured that people have wanted to read them and have commented on my thoughts. I now get over a thousand hits from all around the world each month. I have had over 200 comments from dozens of people, from all viewpoints of life.

I will continue column writing (aiming to get to two a week again with some better time management), and would love you all to keep reading and commenting.
