Introduction

Thare are five important things that should be borne in mind when reading this blog. (1) The Slog is more than the sum of her parts. Not all these posts put together will put together a complete picture of The Slog. (2) This blog is merely a record of the Slog's experiences throughout the years. Of course, The Slog has her views and her comments should be taken with a pinch of salt as they are colored by her beliefs and experiences. As we all know, everything is relative. (3) The Slog disclaims all liability to the fullest extent permissible by law and makes no warranties whatsoever, express or implied, in relation to or arising from or in connection with her posts. Her views on this blog are fair comments which are aired and shared without malice with a view of assisting those reading to be in a better position to make informed decisions. (4) The Slog and her CEB have two little mini ones who will henceforth be known as The Bug and The Bird. (5) This blog has been silent for six years (set to private) and hence, the information in this blog for earlier posts may be outdated. For example, certain places may have ceased to exist or may have changed their addresses/menus/way of doing things. Again, as we all should know, the only constant in life is change. Read on at your own peril.
