We Are Back
Its going to take a few days to pick up were Anna left off when she decided to finally enjoy her retirement from blogging.
We fully intend to continue highlighting and acting on cases like Nick Hogan jailed for infringing the rules of the nanny state on smoking, and that of Sheila Martin hounded by the Green Police in Sandwell.
Hopefully we can maintain the same high standards as ‘Anna Raccoon’

‘Just had a look at a website about Hollie Grieg. Why arn’t they happy
about what’s been said about them by Anna Raccoon?’
Asking the wrong people, you need to ask them why they are upset.

What can I say that has not been said!
Keep it sharp – and keep it
pointed.

Welcome back, Anna – this has to be the best news this week, especially as
Mr E has hung up his blogger’s hat!
Perhaps he’ll follow your lead!

Yeeehaah!

Spot on Fred. It was Anna’s wonderful french pieces and the often humerous
but always understanding observations on French life that first attracted me
to the blog.
I would still nominate her ‘This is France’ piece, about the
highwire act as probably the best piece I read online anywhere in the last
year.
Please Anna some guest posts would be lovely.

Nice to see the site back up and running, lets hope it continues
uninterrupted.

Fab!
I’m sad, though, that Anna didn’t share her troubles more with her
readership because she might have been bouyed up by the support she would have
received.
I’m looking forward to this new phase.

Anna won’t believe this, but it’s true. I really am pleased to see this
blog back; disappointed that its incomparable founder will no longer be
gracing us with her pen.
Anna infuriated and captivated me in equal measure. At her best, she was
simply sublime; a writer I would kill to be able to emulate: at (for me, at
least) her worst, she would wreak fearful havoc with my blood pressure. But
perverse though it may seem, writers I actually like do that.
Anna’s pieces on Holly Grieg were incisive, meticulously researched
searching and powerfully stated. It was mainly her pieces on the McCanns that
gave me apoplexy.
Anna is inimitable; I know nothing about those who will take up her mantle.
Their style will inevitably be different from Anna’s, but I’m sure they will
do full justice to a fine tradition of blog writing.
I look forward to reading the new pieces. And I may even offer the odd
piece of feedback. Over to you.

Good to see it back.
Will the entire history of everything blogged there in the past also be
resurrected, the archives preserved for research and quotation sources?

Hurray!

Thank God I didn’t delete the link from Google Reader.
First the resurrection of Obo; now Anna R rises from the ashes. Anybody
would think it’s Easter.

To coin a phrase: Hello (again) Good Evening and Welcome!
So very pleased with this!

Another reason to smile today.

PS
And I hope you’re signing up the monastic community!

Sheer joy to see the site surface in my RSS reader. I left it there on the
offchance something might reappear one day.
Any chance you can persuade
Anna to write the occasional piece on expat life in France? We didn’t read her
*just* for the heavy stuff you know.
