More new blog discoveries

As you see, I've dropped the 'Blogwatch' title for my regular round-up of sites to click on in the wonderful world of disability blogging. This followed some understandable confusion over the 'Blogwatch' name. Besides, with Crimewatch and Springwatch already on the Beeb, we were entering a crowded field.
First up, let me tell you about Turtle's Page Of Joy. Turtle, whose dream in life is to review music for a living, is a regular on the Ouch messageboard. One of the latest entries on her blog concerns the music used to accompany oh-so-tragic TV items about disabled people - notably Trouble by Coldplay and Go Your Own Way by Fleetwood Mac (the clue's in the lyrics). Personally, I like something uplifting to accompany my disability-on-TV moment - Angels by Robbie Williams, maybe. Or maybe not.
Next, from Bristol we have Borderline Teacher. Cat is a 28-year-old French teacher with Borderline Personality Disorder (hence the title, see?) She's also included a nifty little widget on her blog homepage, which you can use to find out what it's like to be her and live with Borderline Personality Disorder. Very cool - though prepare your index finger for a LOT of mouse clicking!
Last, but my no means least (as they say in all the best awards ceremonies), we've got Mein Kampf by Stephen Miller. Stephen's yet another regular on the messageboard, and also a Paralympic athlete. He describes his site as being "full of quite deep poems at the moment", although Crippled Monkey has taken an immediate liking to Stephen's latest verse called Aardvark.
That's yer lot for now, then. Don't forget - if you're one of the growing legion of disabled bloggers out there, drop me a line at the usual address for a mention and maybe get added to our blogroll. I'm not going to rest until the crip-bloggers rule the blogosphere!
