How to Leave a Comment

A number of visitors to the blog have informed me that they have posted comments which have not appeared.  It’s possible that the process of leaving comments is unclear so here’s an attempt to explain.

At the bottom of each posting there appears something like the following

Click on the word ‘Comments’ and the following form should appear

The boxes in which I have put “your name” and “your.email@address” will be empty (unless your computer has filled them in automatically) and you must fill them in or WordPress will not accept the comment.  Once you have typed your comment in the large blank box you must then click on the “Submit Comment” button.  Sometimes this button has disappeared off the bottom of the screen so you might have to scroll down to it.  There’s often a short delay after clicking this button but providing you follow the steps above your comment should reach me.

All of your comments are welcome - this might be a comment on my work, a question, or indeed a criticism   (and please remember that adverse criticism can be just as valuable as positive comments!)   Alternatively, you might like to respond to a comment left by another reader.

Whatever your message is I would really like to see it.
