Sometimes you come across a blog that just grabs your attention. If you're like me, you'll end up following them. I did just that a couple of years ago with fellow Brit Indigo Roth. His mind and his blog occupy a world that is convoluted, bizarre, fascinating, endearing and entertaining. Above all, it's entertaining. He's currently trying to reach a bigger audience. He deserves one.
His fictional (?) world contains amongst other things, a flat sharing lion with a penchant for regular showers and tie theft, engineering badgers, evil Genius (previously part-time) Dr Max Tunguska, Amy – a bare footed, blonde haired, summer-scented neighbour - and visits from fellow blogger and coffee addict Eloiste Petite. His escapades, japes and jaunts involve ancestors, time travel, gourmet coffee, talking animals and a multitude of scenarios and situations that quite frankly I couldn't imagine anyone else coming up with, written with that unique style of his that often leaves me with a grin on my face and plenty to think about across the day. He may be mad, he may be affected by a diet which seems to revolve around coffee and pizza but one thing is for sure; he's worth a visit. And I have no idea what a 'fractal slacker' is........
See you later.
This one's for you Indigo.

Hi Alistair! I don't know what to say. This is a lovely hat-tip, and flattering beyond words. I am not worthy. Thank you. Indigo
I was a dedicated follower for a long while. I still drop in to his blog now and then, but I must confess that either I am just too Canadian or he is just too particularly English for me to really 'get' him. I blame myself. I'm very glad you enjoy him, though!
