And so it begins. Come with me, as I spend the next 24 hours descending from the substandard to the ridiculous and back again. Some bloggers have themes, some do giveaways, some have detailed plans of everything they're going to write about, some do terribly serious thought-provoking posts about their chosen charities... but me, I just make it up as I go along.
Things I hope to feature over the next 24 hours include dog pictures, cat pictures, videos, music, the Dogwarts Sorting Hat, voice posts, random and not-so-random polls, and - providing she remembers the instructions I gave her for leaving comments, MY MUM!
Before I hit "post entry" on this, the first of way too many Blogathon entries for this year, I'd like to beg you to please, please sponsor me. You still can, even though I've already started. The link is here and also at the top of my links list over to the side there. I've got far fewer sponsors this year than last year, and that makes Spike sad.

See you in half an hour!
