One Hundred And One Things

What's this about?

I used to think that my family was a bit odd. Later, I worked out that it was indeed a bit odd, but not really much more so than anybody else's. Anyway, it has some fantastic stories, and also occasionally communicates in a fasion not entirely comprehensible to the outside world. ('Snape', for example, is not a character in Harry Potter, but a baby's nappy.)


Why do I want to do this?

I hate the thought of stories being lost as people die or grow senile. An oral tradition is all very well, but I'm not convinced that there's enough of us with good enough memories to keep it going. Safer on paper.


How will I know when it's done?

I'll have twenty family stories, and fifty family words or phrases, written down. This will only scratch the surface of the stuff that's out there, but it'll be a start.


I'll record this on el_staplador.
