Comments:
The first impression of Mad Baggage is that there is a lot of text and very few images. Cheryl’s style of writing is very thought provoking and descriptive. The main content seems to be lifestyle issues – family, health, pets and the home. When it comes to current affairs it’s a serious blog that makes mention of topical issues – however, every so often there is a real nugget of humour. There are some particularly funny YouTube embeds lurking about in here too. I also like the ‘Free Association’ series of posts – Cheryl thinks of a few random words and writes a few comments about them. Kind of word brainstorming. With a varied range of content and regular updating this is a sound blog.
