Itās 1st October, and it seems Iāve decided to do Blogtober again. This would be a perfectly sensible idea if I had lots of spare time, nothing much going on, and the kind of organised life that allows for daily blogging.
Unfortunately, none of those things are true. 😂
The last time I did Blogtober was in 2021, and for some utterly unfathomable reason Iāve decided that five years later would be an excellent time to have another go.
So, for the next 31 days, the plan is to post something here every day.
Some posts will be about soap. Some will be about running The Soap Mine. Some will probably be little glimpses of workshop life, home life, Jac, autumn in Beddgelert, things Iāve learnt, things that have gone wrong, things Iām currently obsessed with, and whatever else happens to be going on that day.
Some posts might be useful, some might be mildly interesting and some may simply prove that I remembered to write something before going to bed.
Iām deliberately not setting myself the task of writing 31 enormous, beautifully polished blog posts because that would almost certainly result in me giving up by about the 4th October.
Instead, Iām treating this as a little diary of October 2026.
Thirty-one days of soapy life and everything in between.
Letās see how far I get. 😬
