That Was The Blog That Was

Friends,

It has been fun pointing out our industry’s foibles and follies every weekend, but all good things, etc.  So yes, the world’s longest, and longest running, professional suicide note is coming to an end.  Barring outbreaks of even more stupid stupidity, this will be my last TWTWTW.  Please note that I reserve my right to point out those outbreaks of particularly stupid stupidity in our industry, in the extremely unlikely event they come along.  Still, you would not write them off.  Have been known to happen.

I remain available to moderate and speak at conferences and so on, as well as teach and offer workshops and guidance.  It goes without saying that the Aviation Intelligence Reporter will continue for those discerning enough to realise that there are just as many cheap laughs, and a few quite expensive ones, in the AIR, along with analysis you will simply not get elsewhere.  We always welcome new subscribers.

For those of you not interested in sustaining original thinking and quirky outbreaks of humour, thanks for the support, as deafeningly silent as it usually was.  For those that want to keep being both entertained and amused by someone that does not feel the need to be loved by those that do ridiculous things and then demand unquestioning fealty; that is not afraid to point out errors, and silliness; you know where to find me.

It seems right that in this, the last blog of the year, I end with a rendition of the song that opened the show from which I take the name, and the inspiration, for this blog – That Was The Week That Was – the world’s first TV political satire show.

Wishing you all the very best for Christmas.

That was the blog that was
Its over, let it go
We had weeks both fast and slow

But never once did we not know
That yes, it was the week that was
That was the blog that was

Its over, let it go
It started out quiet and ever so humble
But sometimes offended if pointing out fumbles

In that week, the week that was
That was the blog that was
Its over, let it go

And all we can do now is say
That that was the blog that was…
Adeiu
