New South West YCL blog

I've not posted on here in a while. Or at least, I've not actually written a post on here for a while. Some of you may have (hopefully) noticed, there is now a South West England and Cornwall District website, www.southwestcommunists.org.uk (plug plug plug) and with it is a new YCL blog, www.swycl.blogspot.com (more shameless plugging, it's the capitalist in me). To say I had a big part in setting these up would be an understatement - call me a control freak, but yes, I did it all.

So while I've been distracted, this blog has been neglected. Whether I manage to redress the balance all depends on how many people now start to contribute and take some of the work off my hands. And if I let them. . .
