At today’s Blog Club we did an exercise to kick off with. We had ten minutes to write twenty-five titles of blog posts we’d like to write. I ignored the “like to” bit and just wrote as many off the top of my head titles I could think of. I came up with thirty-five. The thing is, when you let go of actually having to do anything with them, you can come up with a lot more than you’d imagine.

The next bit of the exercise was to choose five to actually write (one of which was “Ten blog posts I’ll never write” which I’ve turned into this one).

So that leaves the other thirty, which I didn’t want to throw away, so here they are:

1. Eating dinner with Chris Brogan
2. How to play the violin if you’ve never done it before
3. The hypocrisy of babies
4. Jelly – my part in it’s downfall
5. How to have hope
6. Using household objects to make a movie
7. How huge is this artichoke?
8. The three types of people you meet at an unconference
9. Is there anything bigger than this experience?
10. The view from Clee Hill
11. Eating out in Rhyl
12. How I turned my bedroom into a cinema in 2 weeks
13. On the bus
14. Calamari
15. How much coffee is too much?
16. When caring goes bad
17. The dark side of Jaffa cakes
18. Dear Lazyweb, please recreate Posterous.com
19. A man on a train in West Texas
20. Apricots: what’s the point?
21. Fifteen amazing people in Bridlington
22. How corned beef saved my life
23. Twenty-two things to do with a bottle opener
24. Crazy golf without the crazy
25. When did you last see your Aunty Beryl
26. Eating shellfish: a primer
27. If you can’t do this thing, you’ll never do anything
28. Don’t wait, keep it moving
29. Primary School Blues

On second thoughts, I probably will write some of these.

But what were the other five?

1. Great tube journeys in Zone 3
2. Ten (thirty) blog posts I’ll never write.
3. Stop thinking!!
4. Today I shot a gun for the first time
5. The devil makes work for idle hands
