I'm a retired guy who enjoys blogging. I try not to take life too seriously, that's why I have called this blog Silly Old Sod. I suppose sometimes I am silly and I'm definitely getting old so the name suits me. I hope you enjoy your visit and if it made you laugh then I have achieved my mission. Thank you and I hope you visit again.
