<p>In June 2009 we launched our Blog.  We know you are reading our Blog! From our hometown of Manchester to our regular visitors from Zurich and our loyal fan in Greece, we know you are reading our Blog. <strong>Why don’t you talk to us?</strong></p>

<p>Blog’s are written to be read, shared and debated; it gives us a nice feeling to know that someone somewhere is reading what we have to say.  <strong>We’d like to know what you have to say</strong>.</p>

<p>Cheeky Monkey love to communicate, it’s the perfect way to share our knowledge and experience, and learn from others.  We always have a lot to say but <strong>we believe in democracy </strong>and understand that <strong>communication is not one way</strong>.</p>
<p>In June 2009 we launched our Blog; overcome with excitement we actively encouraged our loyal followers and supporters to leave a comment on our first two posts.  Since then we have left our Blog to fate, fate has no voice.</p>
<h4>Would you like to say something?</h4>
<p>We know you are reading our Blog! From our hometown of Manchester to our regular visitors from Zurich and our loyal fan in Greece, we know you are reading our Blog. <strong>Why don’t you talk to us?</strong></p>
<p>This week Nina and I have had a number of conversations and debates that have stemmed from my last Blog post <a href="http://www.wayofthemonkey.co.uk/blog/2009/07/31/honesty/">“Honesty”</a>, my question to them has been, <strong>why didn’t you comment?</strong></p>
<p>The general consensus is that our readers feel they are <strong>“not qualified to comment”</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://www.wayofthemonkey.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/comments-encouraged.png" alt="comments-encouraged" title="comments-encouraged" width="288" height="242" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-570" /></p>
<p><strong>We want you to be part of the discussion</strong>, your comments, whether they be shatteringly honest, frustratingly stupid, sincere or insightful are what will make our Blog come to life.</p>
<h4>We’d like to get to know you</h4>
<p>Blog’s are written to be read, shared and debated; it gives us a nice feeling to know that someone somewhere is reading what we have to say.  <strong>We’d like to know what you have to say</strong>.</p>
<h5>Feel free to say hello</h5>
