And my new blog is called.....

Closed beta testing having seen my new blog name getting the thumbs up - thanks Dizzy, Blue Eyes and Catherine - I now declare my new blog open.

It can be found here - http://quizzicalgaze.blogspot.com/ .  I think that the name is fairly suggestive of content and it has three zeds in it, which is really rather fine.

Any readers linking, subscribing or reading Croydonian should change their links, as I am closing the blog.  I will not be posting here again, and I will switch off the ability to make comments.  Thank you readers from 2006 to date, especially those who checked in of late to see whether I was ever going to post again, in particular these fine folk - in alphabetical order - All Seeing Eye, Capitalists@work, JuliaM and Lakelander.

I intend to post on the same sorts of thing as before, and the dropping of the name does not indicate that there is anything amiss in Chiswick or my life more broadly - very far from it, more that the url and the croydonian name appearing on my posts and comments is both inappropriate and anachronistic.

perhaps u can archive some of those mega-threads from 2006-7 ?

You're to remain "Mr C", however, as there is only one Mr Q & he writes for us !

You've cornered two of the best words in the language there, Q, 'gaze' and 'quizzical'.

Nick, I am not going to delete it - honest. Mr Q is indeed a Capitalists@work exclusive...

HG - Thank you for that vote of confidence.
