You there! You at the back!

Blogging can be quite a solitary business and I'm still not quite sure who is actually reading this (maybe no one).

So if I can ask you a favour... if you've read this, if you've read the previous entries, can you pop a comment here and let me know? And if you've got any questions or any topics you'd like me to cover in a future post you only have to ask. That embarrassing story about the nude pictures, my job phoning porn lines, my very worst dates... you name it. I might even tell that Vaseline story.

Don't be shy. I'd be really interested to know just how many (how few?) readers I actually have.

I'm here!

A request for:

* Nudity

* Worst date(s)

I'm pretty sure there was another one you mentioned a while ago too but I don't remember what it was.

That's part of the lure of the blogging mystique you see, the feeling as you commit those virtual words to their electronic autonomy that your carefully crafted missive may well be an unheard scream into the black depths of your monitor.

Mr London Street said...

Hmph. I'm glad there's someone funny writing on this blog.

So, so far two readers and an anonymous heckler. It's not looking too clever.

I'm here too and the vas story sounds intriguing :o)dr

Mr London Street said...

Who are all these anonymous people?

Suzanne said...

I even subscribed to your feed!

Also, you should probably talk about music more.

Wolf said...

I wasn't heckling. Even had to go through the rigmarole of allowing the scripts on this page JUST to placate your literary insecurities and confirm that your witty maunderings are indeed perused. See the lengths we go to for you?

Well, you know I read it.

Natalie said...

I'm here too. I'm always hanging around.

I like your observational stuff. As someone who wanders around in their own little bubble, I'm always impressed when people observe stuff.

Don't worry your posts are so entertaining i can't help but to get a little excited when i see you wrote a new one :)

I look in every now and then

I look in every day and this week I have only been disappointed once, on Monday, when you didn't write.

I found your blog through "3 Beautiful Things".

The first post I read was "Friday Night's all right..." and I laughed and laughed! We've all been there, trying to look as though we're not really listening and glaring at our other half as they try to carry-on the conversation that you're supposed to be having.

I've read all your posts now,and they're really good.Please keep writing - it's great to read something that makes me grin.

Please explain the busdriver.

I'm here - and I'd love to hear the vaseline story ;)

Mr London Street said...

Wow, so many comments! Thanks everyone who chipped in, I shan't ask again. Well, not for a bit anyway.

So, I have requests for

- the bus drivers (the funbus in general merits a post and I'll do that at some point next week)
- the Vaseline story (I shall change names to protect the innocent)
- more stuff about music

That's great, if I run out of things to say I think that will keep me going. Incidentally, if anyone hasn't heard my swinging story I'll have to immortalise that one in print at some point too.

Rebecca said...

Hey now, don't my requests count? Hmph!

Mr London Street said...

Oh, I took your request to be a general request for nudity which of course I don't condone.

Ally said...

I'm a brand new reader, which is great as it means I have Archives to go through :D

"long time reader - first time poster!?!"

I always think your musings catch a certain random yet 'in-the-moment' feel about them. More: Thoughts on current events posts please!

Found your blog recently and thanks! You've made me laugh more than anything has for quite a while.

Mr London Street said...

Aw, thankyou! Glad you like it. Out of curiosity, how did you find it?

lardaholics said...

Ah the new blogger needs post his "who is reading" post. I'm reading and enjoying. Tell the Scampii Fries story...

Mr London Street said...

The Scampi Fries story... it's a possibility.

camilla said...

I'm reading every single entry on your blog today, in one sitting. If it means I get NO WORK DONE WHATSOEVER then so be it. I'm taking one for the team ;) And laughing my head off, quietly...

Tux said...

Just wandered by today and was compelled to read all the entries! I am now dying to hear the vaseline story too! I a Canadian and I like hearing a little bit about Reading and area as well. Keep up the good work!

Mr London Street said...

Hey Tux, thanks for the comment! I have family in Canada (Ontario, as it happens), glad you like the blog.

The Mad Fat Girl said...

You obviously don't need this now, but I've started at the beginning today. You are an amazing writer and an inspiration! :)

I'm a fairly new reader and I was going through your archives (very entertaining stuff) when I came across this. So, hi!
