Hi everyone

BC are about to launch a Blog.

This blog will be full of weekly reviews, interviews, tips, exercises and more. We have assembled a team of writers who will bring you great content on a regular basis.

We're still looking for one or two people, so I'll be adding to the team over the next few weeks.

At the the same time, I'll request that from time to time people submit articles for publishing to the blog, for example if someone has a big project on the go, or write ups from BC bashes and so forth.

We hope you like it and enjoy reading the articles; you'll be able to comment on and discuss them on the forum and post video responses of your own.

Once we have the infrastructure to support it, we are looking at being able to host your on personal blogs on BC too, which will be readable from the same tab.

More updates as they happen

Cheers

I can't wait. My nipples have curdled with excitement. I never knew they could do that! I like the tips bit too, especially nipple tips. I need to ensure the curdling thing doesn't happen so in the future though. Can anyone on Basschat advise?

They got the Internet but that was on the understanding that they took kiwi back. Some call it a fair trade.

I hope I'm not too late!

What you need to do is stand up on a desk or table in public, pull the front of your T-shirt up over your head, put your elbows up & put your thumbs under your oxters & then ping your nipples whilst shouting "Bring the Milk".

Good luck.

Is this general advise or just for Kiwi? :P

Be wary. They grew up in a different age.

Ooops! I seem to have walked into the wrong room - I was expecting a conversation about the BC Blog. This seems to be the embarrassing confessions thread.


My mistake.

I've had a good look around myself using a variety of ingeniously positioned mirrors and a pencil torch, and can confirm that everything's peachy (including my nipples).
