All great ideas... and they may come to something. But I hope you'll excuse me if I just try to make sure the blog, podcast and tweets run smoothly first 
Happy New Year to you!
Happy New Year to you!

One thing I forgot to say:
The individual diary entries will be posted in the late afternoon / early evening of the appropriate day. We chose this time, rather than making them live from midnight, as it seemed to be closer to the time than Nathaniel would likely have written them. So you should not assume that something has gone wrong when 1 January's post is not live earlier in the day!

Hello again
Yes, it would be great if you could post links to the existing discussions. You can't post comments on 'pages' (eg: Intro to the diary) but you can on 'posts', so the one you might want to start with is the 'Step back in time...' post (https://victorianclerk.wordpress.com/2015/12/19/step-back-in-time-to-victorian-pimlico/). Please note that comments are moderated, so there may be a delay before they appear.
It would be great to see discussion happening on the site itself, rather than all readers having to jump back to this site all the time, but obviously there is a lot of background here so it's a matter of getting a balance between what has been worked through on here already (perhaps the conclusions could be summarised as comments on the WordPress site?) and what new discussions may happen. As each day's entry will be a separate post, it would be great if information and discussions relevant to each entry could be added to the appropriate posts - without giving away too much of what is yet to be revealed - whether or not it will work out like that remains to be seen!
You are probably right that it won't generate quite the same frenzy this time around, but we hope that the new format and the podcasts will prove to be worth revisiting for those of you who enjoyed it so much in 2010.

Dear all,
I hope this is the right thread on which to post this news...
Nathaniel Bryceson's diary will be published again online, in the same way as before (ie each entry on the appropriate day, throughout the year), from 1 January 2016.
This time it's in a blog format, accompanied by a weekly podcast, and you can follow by subscribing to the blog and/or the podcast or following @VictorianClerk on Twitter. Should you wish, you can add comments to the blog posts themselves.
Here are the links:
- Blog (and podcast): https://victorianclerk.wordpress.com/
- Podcast on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/life-loves-victorian-clerk/id1069837849
- Nathaniel Bryceson on Twitter: https://twitter.com/VictorianClerk
We hope you enjoy it. Merry Christmas!
