Editor’s Note: And So... We Rumble On

ast month I told you I was confused… well, maybe the confusion
has eased just a tad – however, it seems I’m stuck in an inverse
Lequation. As confusion eases, frustration grows. Frustration with
the situation but mostly frustration with the diet of odd information
we are fed… by those who have usurped power. When last I looked, it
seemed that many dodgy statistical anomalies are/ were used to scare
the global population… into submission.
But – as I said last month… this is supposed to be an apolitical plat-
form – so, I’d better stick to the rules… before management kicks me
off! Imagine. That makes me wonder, what else can I tell you about?
Let me begin by saying we are somewhat more fortunate than you may
be. Our two kilometre radius has been lifted to five kilometres and we
are now allowed to load our 90 year old family member into the car
and take him down to the beach, even though he just sits in the car, at
least to a small degree, he has almost escaped the clutches of manda-
tory self-isolation. So yes – the rest of our household’s activities have
been geared toward ensuring we don’t bring the bug into the house.
Something I’m sure you are also mastering at this stage of the game –
so much for herd immunity. ual situations, we have managed to produce another great magazine,
thanks to all the contributors and the FenderBomb… our magazine
And so… we rumble on. Last month, I shared a backyard boredom magic man aka the Magazine Mechanic. After a wee chat with the MM,
breaker segment – challenging you to go out into your backyard and we decided to place some of the free adverts on the website too. So…
take happy snaps… or, do ten push-ups. OK… as promised, I uploaded keep the adverts coming – we’ll keep updating the website and keep
my push-up clip… yes, it’s really me… no faking – no fake news on this striving to build friendship and help in our small way.
platform. Go over to the “Home” on the website – you’ll see me hard at
suffering. Right so… as the Irish would say… we rumble on. I’m taking it upon
myself to introduce you to a very special person. But… you have
However – we continue stumbling on… irrespective of our individ- to promise you don’t tell her, because she is likely to bullet me for
exposing her. But you see, if I’m the editor then this good lady is the
Editor in Chief! Yep, that she is… and actually, she has carried that title
for a number of years as she has always put the final touches on most
anything I dare to publish. However, her participation in this magazine
does not stop at crossing the “i’s” and dotting the “t’s”. Truth.

As many of you have worked out… I am guilty of harassing people to
contribute. Let’s just say I’m quite good at chipping people off… until
they submit. On the contrary, my good lady asks sweetly… and her
contacts usually help voluntarily… by supplying great stories and imag-
es. Long may the soft touch last – because we all benefit greatly.

It’s time to rumble on again. Before I bid you another pleasant month –
do please visit the website. The Auto DJ is always on… and we update
or reshuffle the music to keep the listening pleasure fresh. I’m doing a
Friday evening show – it has become quite an event – join the lot of us
who enjoy the boogie. We would love to put on more live shows – but
we can’t do it all by ourselves, even though we mistakenly think we can.
I will note again – we would love others to join the DJ ranks. It’s easy…
it’s like chatting with a friend – while playing the music you love.

Right… time for me to rumble out of here – you’ve had enough of me.
And, as always – do subscribe to the magazine – and join all our social
media pages… and share, we like building friendship – for the fun! As
my latest motto goes… be positive, stay safe – be happy!
