New blog

Today we officially launch the Collings & Herrin blog. Please bookmark it and sign up to the feed, as it will from now on become the indulgent home of all C&H news, and I can post up as many pics as I like without testing the patience of people who visit this blog but get fed up of all the C&H plugs and news. I may occasionally post things on both, but by and large, if you follow us, go here.

Any chance of getting an RSS feed set up on the new blog? Please?

I'm not sure how to put an RSS feed on the blog. Any help?

Does this mean the new blog will be your main home?

By the way, I can't RSS feed this blog to mine, so perhaps the new one might work better.

Love the new blog but slightly concerned when my employers logo immediately came up as a follower. Presumably everyone see it so can it be deleted please?!

Far from it, F-C - this will be my blog. The other one will be the C&H blog. I suspect the other one will have less written content, but more info and plugs. It seems like a good way of separating the two strands of my life. (Some ingrates have complained about the frequency of plugs for C&H gigs etc. on here.)

Helen, I don't really understand "followers" - and I'm not sure I can remove you. Have you tried removing yourself? I don't have followers on my other blog and have never felt the need. I could get rid of the facility, although I'm not sure why your employer's logo has come up?

Helen, when you sign up to "follow" you are given the option to follow privately, which means you don't show up. Try that, and let know if it was successful.

Ooh, there seems to be an RSS feed on the new blog now. Or maybe it was always there and I'm an idiot. Either is possible.

Honestly I didn't do any signing up to follow just opened the page and can't see where on the page to sign up to follow either.
Will try for the home PC.

Kind Regards
Helen

Excellent news AC. Hopefully this blog will now return to what it was before all the plugs began- lively debate on interesting topics. Get in!

A joint blog could be the first step on the road to civil partnership.

Never had a problem with you putting C&H stuff on here personally but hey.

hi Andrew, Is there any possibility of you doing a podcast show in Dublin? :o)

Although I don't follow the podcast, I've never minded the relevant postings because at least it means there are fairly regular updates here. And those postings, and the responses, can still make entertaining reading. There's a danger, without the C&H stuff, of this blog not being updated for quite long periods. That's good news if it means you're busy, but it may actually make the ingrates whinge more.

If it hadn't been for the podcasts leading me to your blog I would have missed out on all the interesting posts, and can't help feeling that others may now be unwittingly deprived of your uninterrupted view of the world. Also the new blog has a "report abuse" section, someone is going to be very very busy.

Very nice, though collingsandherrin.com is blocked by the Great Firewall of China.

Joining a list including: twitter, facebook, youtube, opendemocracy.net, BBC in Chinese, dalailama.com ... good company, I guess.

A brave new world for C&H... H being far to complimentary about you on his blog these days, have you worn him down!!

Welsh One - some very funny moments, couldn't detect the fatigue of the marathon day.

Any views on the new Clooney film before we head off to see it, trailer looked okay.

I thought Up In The Air was excellent, but you'll have seen it by now, I guess. Just saw It's Complicated: it's overrated!

I noticed on the CH Blog you state

Some of them, we've played, but sort of grudgingly, as there's something about "production" that feels wrong on the podcast.

and now you have a dedicated website, T shirts, tour dates..

hmmm...

looks like a lot of 'production' to me. ;)

Bit late to this because I'm only just catching up with podcasts, but please read this about the MMR/autism debate, Andrew.

hi andrew,
can you add the C@H blog to your list of links on the right hand side of your blog?
makes it easier to navigate to and presume will increase your hits.
