I am somewhat distressed to note that over the last twenty-four hours this blog has received considerable hits from an East Coast domain that suggests the readers are inmates at my former employer. I suppose the leak was inevitable.

Now that both my mother and my former (and, the way this world is, possibly future) bosses are reading "Taken At The Flood", you can be assured that editorial standards will reach new heights. As a consequence, a select few readers will receive an occasional email if and when events get a little too "spicy" (a colourful term much-loved by my old boss Swojo) for family entertainment.
