Contrasts

The Blogosphere is fascinating for numerous reasons. It is free, full of contrasts and there are no age restrictions: 18 year old from California blogs at Always and is currently in Malta. Her thoughts on this country:

Malta is...interesting. Lots of history, lots of beautiful pink and white stone, clear blue waters and sky. Malta is a tourist island for oberbaked post middle aged Europeans. I am 18, from California and just the right kind of golden. I do not fit in. I don't want to buy the lovely lace dolilie for 21 US. I don't need doilies!!! I would love to buy some alchol while Im here and legal but Im not sure the risk witht the parents is worth it...


Winifred Clara Boggs is 83 years old and is a frequent visitor to Malta. She has been wired to the internet for years and has just set up a new blog called Velvet Utterings. In her first post she writes that she feels like a teenager:

Right, you lot ... I have been reading quite a few of these Blogs and I must say they make very interesting reading indeed. Because I am in my 80's it doesn't mean I'm all washed up - the internet doesn't just belong to the under 70 year olds you know! I've been quite interested in "Blogs" (what an ugly word that is) about Malta and so far I have found...

Dear Robert,

Thank you and other 'Blog folk' so very much for your very kind message.

I have, since 'Blogging' made a point of reading your work on a daily basis - and very informative and well-structured it is.

I might be in my 80's but I am as mentally fit as any young adult - I just have 'experience' as my soul-mate ... as you will discover!

Thank you again.

Winifred Boggs
