I had thought that it might be nice to mark the occasion of the 1,000th post on this blog with a special post. Unfortunately, it would appear that I’ve missed it. If you delve back through my archives, you will see that technically, I’ve produced more than 1000 blog posts by now, as I did not migrate all of my blog posts from blogger.

You can still see my blogger archives if you visit my last blogger-powered post. Some of them were migrated, but many were not. By my reckoning there were 48 posts which were not migrated, meaning that this is actually my 981st wordpress post, and in total, my 1,029th blog post.

Well, I think for such a significant figure as that (look, let’s just pretend it’s a nice round number, okay?) I am entitled to be a little self-indulgent, so what I have chosen to do is to selected one post from each block of one hundred published to date and link to them here for your delight and delectation (as I’m sure some of you naughty, naughty people haven’t yet read all of my archives).

But, as it’s a special post to commemorate the fact that this is my 1,029th blog post, I am going to mention one more. This was my 413th post, and it isn’t so much notable for the post itself — Hi, Barry Scott here… but for the You Tube video embedded in it. The Barry Scott / Cillit Bang Techno Remix. If you’ve not seen it before, it’s worth a look!
