Let's get this show back on the road

We've had a brief pre-summer lull it seems - so it would be good to get the Carnival of Socialism back into action.

The excellent Cruella has volunteered for the next edition (and I've got her down provisionally for the 25th July). It would be good if we could have at least another couple of bloggers who've not taken part recently to step forward for the challenge too.

It could not be easier to put yourself forwards for the carnival - all you need is to be a socialist with a blog and an open mind so we get a broad sweep, rather than a view from just one corner of the left-o-sphere.

It's also true that the more support we give to those hosting the Carnival a) the better it will be and b) the easier it is to host - which are both good things I hope.

All you need is a core of 26 bloggers to have at least one carnival every two weeks on a regular basis. You can put me down anytime you wish from September onward. I will commit to host at least once a year. Cheers!

Cruella: I'm braced!!!

tvfs: I think that's right and will be taking you up on the September offer. In fact I'll sign you up now.

Nice post. I learn something more challenging on different blogs everyday. It should always be stimulating to read content from other writers and apply a bit of something from their store. I’d prefer to use some with the content on my blog whether you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a link on your web blog. Thanks for sharing.
