When I first started blogging in 2003 when you could only post txt, I used to write what I thought was funny stuff and satire. Then Blogger objected to our politics and totty so we moved here. It was only British politics to start. Then I posted something (I can't remember what) but it got picked up and shared by an editor at the Boston Herald (who is probably still regretting it) and all of a sudden I had an American audience. I quickly picked up many contributors from the US (sadly many are no longer with us) and we became very US oriented. We had totty and everything. Then due to work and a few other things I posted less for several years. Politics stopped being fun, I blame the Democrats and Labour in our respective countries.
Ok back to how Theo was born. Originally we were 'The Spark' which I thought was quite catchy. Then I wanted an email address in that name. So I put in the spark into what was Orange (now EE) and it chucked out theospark and that is how Theo was 'born'.
How things have changed since it started. Social media didn't really exist and bloggers were just putting stuff out there and hoping someone would read it.
I am glad you still pop by to see what I and by default Rico still post.
Any suggestions as to what we post will be appreciated. It all seems to be social media and tits out totty these days.
Anyway thanks for still turning up.
Regards Theo

I'm not sure how long I've been following you here.... But it's been quite a while! Everything is good, though this old man has come to appreciate the totty posts even more, every time you post one.
I believe I found this blog via one of the sites on Instapundit's blog roll. All the best to you and I hope you keep soldiering on. BTW, you have at least one Canadian reader, namely me. Cheers.
I for one, are glad you are still here and posting. I love your site, since I love the Spitfire.
I've been here everyday since 2004. Found a lot of my daily visited blogs through links that were posted here. Matter of fact, Theo Spark is #3 on my Bookmark list. I greatly appreciate what you and Rico post for our entertainment and enlightenment.
