BEAR WITH ME!
Hi everyone and welcome to Elisha Blogs!
My site is currently under some serious construction due to my previous theme screwing up and leaving me without a site. I am trying to get a new theme of some form sorted but it is very difficult to find ANY time to dedicate to sorting it out currently due to working 7 days a week, plus commitments to local theatre productions.
So apologies for the dysfunctional layout right now – I hope you can see past it and enjoy reading my past posts. Hopefully Elisha Blogs will be back up and running as normal soon! 🙂
