About Me
- Nige
- Nige, who, like Mr Kenneth Horne, prefers to remain anonymous, was also a founder blogger of The Dabbler and a co-blogger on the Bryan Appleyard Thought Experiments blog. He is the sole blogger on this one, and his principal aim is to share various of life's pleasures. These tend to relate to books, art, poems, butterflies, birds, churches, music, walking, weather, drink, etc, with occasional references to the passing scene. His book, The Mother of Beauty: On the Golden Age of English Church Monuments, and Other Matters of Life and Death, is available on Amazon or direct from the author.
Has The Dabbler returned to the blogosphere or did I step into a time warp?
ReplyDeleteIt's still there on Facebook Waldo, but differently constituted...
ReplyDeleteEgmont's book looks like the sort of thing J.P. Donleavy parodied in The Unexpurgated Code.
ReplyDeleteOddly, the link you supplied took me to the mothballed Dabbler website, where your review sat like a shiny new coin on a dusty attic floor.
ReplyDeleteAs to connecting with The Dabbler on Facebook, uh ..... no. Not my style.
The Dabbler is currently undergoing internal renovations in preparation for a return at an unspecified date. It will be the same but different.
