If it has been a long time since I blogged, it has been even longer since I splunched!

For those unused to Splosh! terminology, a Splunch is a Splosh! Munch where fans of sploshing meet up in a vanilla setting (usually the pub) to sit and chat about all things wet and messy. It is a good way for people new to the scene to meet up and feel a part of things, and now there are several to choose from. The London Meet gets together about once every three months, the Bristol one meets in spring and summer (they like to hold a mud shoot at the same time) and various venues up north do their best to get people to come to ones there as well (for details of all upcoming events, go to the forum).
Again, not wishing to be seen as egotistical, I haven’t been to one of these for ages but Mike Nomic who runs the Bristol do made me an offer I couldn’t resist (ie beer and food) so off I went to Bristol…

Sorry to abandon this part of the website. For a while I thought it was adding nothing that didn’t appear already on the forum except some egotistical ramblings and showing off (which is how a lot of blogs read to me!). However at a recent event (of which more later) it was pointed out that some of you like hearing about our shoots, the behind the scenes stories and so on. So, I shall give it another go, but feel free to encourage me on the forum! If you really want to know about my life (both inside and outside of Splosh!) then you might like to join www.facebook.com/bill.shipton where there are numerous photos of me, mates, sploshers and others – invariably pissed!
Meanwhile, the blog is back – for now at least!
