Hello and Thanks

Well I’m finally here on tygerland.net – hello all

I have transferred all my old posts from my old 20.six blog, and will endeavour to transfer my Wordpress.com posts too (including comments), although there is a way to do this automatically using RSS, but I’m unawares as to how this is done, as of yet; research needed methinks

I must also sort the blogroll, so don’t be despondent if your blog has disappeared, it will be back!

First of all let me thank Robert Bateman, and his assistant Kate Carson, for allowing me to use the beautiful Siberian Tiger image that adorns the site. You can read more here.

Also I would like to thank Kaushal Sheth who designed the blog, and did all the technical work behind the scenes. I can certainly recommend Kaushal to anyone who wants to run WordPress themselves, but doesn’t want to get their hands dirty with the programming. The pricing was very competitive and the service top notch. Kaushal can be contacted on his site.

I would also like to thank my wonderful partner Olja, who has suffered while I laboured writing, and financing, this blog.

And lastly I would to thank all those who post on this, and my previous, blogs. Special mentions to effervescent reader Jose, and of course Chagnon, who was the very first poster to the new site.

Thanks all.

Now the sickeningly saccharine Oscar speech is finished, I can get back to being bitter and sceptical.
