My TweetsThis blog is 95% made with an Android Smartphone …menus and widgets need a pegman like google maps to move widgets on an android so until that happens …Sept 2015 for a while posts are via the pc sadly the Android Smartphone isn’t working at the min!
The menu and widgets are only updated occasionally…kk
It was created when the beautiful Enjoy the East Midlands website was archived.
The lovely 3Mobile co have now organised a means of a sim only contract which allows All you can Eat Data with 35Gb of tethering (use your phone like a mifi-wifi) for a reasonable price!! Awesome – so in the next few weeks the blog can have a spring clean and evolve a little!!
Love youtube music- would like a linked profile and links … with a widget maybe to bring in new likes… spotify or myspace or tunehog or vimeo? sadly we had to pay, but in 2017 this may have changed!! …..
All the pages and everything is made with the Smartphone that’s every post and page (the theme had to be sorted with the pc) to prove that anyone with an Android could make a blog – everything made on the phone but the headers and widgets from 2011 to 2017! Now we can choose themes and add widgets with the wordpress app. Now all we need is a the ability to add a few affiliates, not actually advertising but maybe tickets or books and music!! Currently wordpress.com isn’t into money making!!

Christmas 2013 Thanks for all the lovely comments - they are much appreciated. These are bloggers who have followed the Wollypark blog - - lovely folk and a big thanks goes to them for following. Just a cautionary note for parents - occasionally the software that sorts the real bloggers from the computerised lets a blog follower through that is either advertising or not suitable for children - mostly the bloggers are lovely and there a real world of creativity out there! Feel free to check out their inspiration! Wollypark doesn't accept any responsibility arising from any link to other blogs.Next: Splendour Festie 21 July 2018

Blogroll in a Pearltree soz authors the pearl isnt the latest blogpost!
A blog that plays around with images
The layout changes from here to two smaller columns
The blog is intentionally unprofessional looking in the sense that it isnt sleek and modern. If you prefer that style, the author offers her apologies. As an individual who likes lots of info, bookshelves crammed with books not categorised or in tidy rows but just crammed full with books leaning, some on top of others, no sizing order, not hardback but just lovely information to dip into all over the place... and lots of creative stuff, embroidery, painting, internet programmes, lots of photos, cookery, home made bread and pizza and other recipies (morissminorarcana) then perhaps this blog will make sense. It would be nice however to be able to change the column sizes just slightly ...so if anyone out there knows how please advise.... so far the theme style wont allow it. I have made a few more modern approach wordpress blogs, one in particular for learning stuff... anything at all at http://businessstudiesalevelrevision2012.wordpress.com/Learn anything from a text book…at any level

Quals: (not that anyone needs them to blog)
PGCE: Secondary: Bus Studies and ICT
Print: RSA Typewriting level IIIThe blog is not perfect –
The aim is to make this blog using an Android Smartphone, so some edits and info may be a little less than perfect … but it proves an android smartphone can make lots of pages and lots of posts and artwork!
The objective is:- have a go a making a blog yourself on any topic but try to take your own pics and make your own artwork!!
see the Making Blogs (with wordpress) page
The blog really really is made with an android phone.
There are thousands of blogs on wordpress.com and blogger – you may need an account with either system to start blogging (i.e. you need an email address and the ability to verify it) then you can make blogs and also use the wordpress ‘read blogs’ option – a super world of ordinary people information.
Info:-
The blogging world is not aiming for marks for perfection – its aiming at ordinary people’s creativity. For perfection try serif webplus software and create a website and keep improving it – they have free downloads of older versions of software! 2017 sadly their webplus is not longer a current product but there are versions still working.
NB: There aren’t any people in the pics on the posts as their permission would be needed to be uploaded and online ..Maybe a gallery soon…
Lots of people do visit the park and other Nottm/Notts Attractions – 80K at Sherwood Festival Aug 11th 2013 – with a little help from the Tweeters!
Interested in Astrology?
Years ago I studied Astrology – before the EU banned it for predictive purposes so now it is for Entertainment only (was it ever anything else??).
I belonged to the Nottm Astrology Society and did talks for groups all around the UK. I was even on TV with the Time and the Place programme once!! My focus was always that the majority of people don’t understand that Astronomy ie the Planets can be seen in the sky (Starry Skies, Astronomy groups) and that sky picture is the one in your Astrology chart from the day you were born so its quite special but its not going to control your life.
Many years ago people used the stars to navigate and determine when to plant and harvest so it was important but became ‘occult’ or hidden in the Victorian times, and now with the Internet (and lots of countries still have a really big interest) its evolved more. People know some information is for fun and entertainment and is not too serious.
If you are interested in finding out about Astrology and want an honest up to date viewpoint, or would like a beautiful artwork chart as a pic for your phone or frame, email dilydaydream.direct@gmail.com and use the subject *ColourCharts
Its a de-mystifying type of Astrology so people who may use it to manipulate you cant do so any more!!
