1237Someone Once Told Me has recently received its one millionth visit, a simply brilliant figure. Naturally I'm chuffed to bits about this, and have written a short blog post on the subject.

Thanks to everyone who's contributed to that marvellous statistic.

As for today's SOTM, our subject was talking to a friend about “relationships in contemporary society”. He told his friend how he found it hard to get involved in a relationship. She sent him back a poem, part of which he used for his SOTM.

He said his message here wasn’t a literal translation of the poem, but that the poem had “captured him”. Taken in Bethnal Green, London at a Centrepoint event.
