Next Door Neighbours

I'm afraid, like this blogger, I am a site meter junkie.
Occasionally, when I have a wee look to see who has been looking at the blog, I spot a referral I don't recognise. First time that happened, I convinced myself that my rantings and ravings where reaching out to a new audience that went beyond Edinburgh Branch of the Socialist Party and a few friends and family. This became a bit feverish when I started imagining such crazy thoughts as a quorate Branch meeting or a write up for 'Small Party of Good Boys' in the blog section of the Guardian, but then I realised that it was little more than a case of someone clicking the 'next blog' button on the top right hand of the screen and stumbling upon my blog.
Surprise, surpise, they never stay longer than 0.00 seconds but it's always interesting to see the blogs out there that exist but which fall outside my remit of ultra-left politics, pop music and Glasgow Celtic. The latest blogger to refer to me is Solutions Publishing. From what I can gather, a blog solely devoted to treadmills and physical fitness. They must be keen on the fitness thing, whoever they are, because they have only blogged three times in three months, which can even allow a lazy swine like me do a Stakhanov impersonation over their Oblomov. And the one before that, was the blog written by a Fundmantalist Christian living in Kansas.
What is blogger trying to tell me exactly?

I rarely laugh out loud - only the most spectacular comedy, such as The Producers, Catch 22 (book and film), Del Boy in Only Fools and Horses falling over in wine bar, Rangers getting beat, etc etc etc, make me laugh. But this and your last post have resulted in me laughing out loud. Thanks!
