Why the strange URL name

This blog actually started its life, as a journal of serial walks (my wife and I often walk various tracks and trails just doing a short part of the journey at a time, the we pick up the place we got to the next time and walk further)

Well for the long time the journal had just one entry

Our first Serial walk was long ago, in the time before blogs. We walked from Mordialloc into Albert Park.


And that is all we will tell you about it!

so I decided it would be appropriate to re-cycled that blog (rather than start something new), I trust you wont mind.

Why do I use wikipedia so much?

No I don't have shares.

Wikipedia seems to me to be a fairly up to date and relevant source of a lot of the information I am posting about. I think it is a good way to let you the reader understand the scientoific terms and plant names. I also find that is largely correct, well presents the sames things I know.

Now that doesn't mean I'm saying it is totally correct, for example in matters to do with climate change. I am starting to worry that a lot, that you find on the internet may have political aggendas and in some cases be contrived mis-information. You must make up your own mind. Yet wikipedia is the most relevant place to review such issues, particularly contempary issues
