Having two weeks away on holiday gives someone too much time to think.
Blogging has been a lot of fun during the last couple of years but takes too much time every week, especially as I am no longer politically active.
You can also, as the man behind Arsembly once said to me over a pint, get too caught up in blogging and just become part of the noise.
Given the new job, a new business and too little time on my hands, I have decided to stop posting on this blog for the foreseeable future.
For all those who have bothered reading and commenting, many thanks for taking the time.
Of course, for those who continue to be interested, I will be carrying on with my weekly column on Saturdays in the Western Mail and in the Daily Post on Mondays.
Pob hwyl
DYLAN
Update: Just as I thought I wouldn't have to blog again for a while....! It would seem that some political mischief makers have been suggesting that I have also resigned from the Conservative Party.
Nothing could be further from the truth - when I meant I am not politically active, it was to mean that I am not thinking of standing for a seat at the moment. However, I am chairing the Economic Commission (which will take more of my time during the next few months) and supporting different candidates across Wales in the run up to the general election.
Anyway, who would be so daft as to leave a winning team!!!!

A great shame. Yours is a genuinely unique and authoritative voice in the blogosphere.
Thanks for providing so much stimulating material over the past couple of years.
This is bad news. Are you getting too much flak?
Please reconsider and if necessary post less often.
A real shame. I've enjoyed your blogging a lot.
I read your Western Mail column regularly (one of the only parts of the paper I ever look forward to).
Best of luck with your future projects.
I'll miss your blog. It did provide a different kind of analysis to the vast majority of political blogs and that made it very interesting and always worth checking out.
It might interest you to know I started reading the Western Mail column after first reading your blog.
All the best for the future.
Pob lwc Dylan.
shame your going Dylan, hope you’re going to keep being just as robust in your newspaper columns.
best of luck.
Dim ond echdoe oeddwn yn cyfeirio at dy flog di ac yn cytuno efo dy sylwadau parthed yr economi.
Dalia ati efallai nid mor aml ond mae gennyt gyfraniad mawr i neud ar lein ac mewn sawl maes arall.
'Da ni gyd yn bobl prysur rhwng y teulu, gwaith a gwleidyddiaeth ond fel arfar ni ydi'r pobl sydd yn gwnued y pethau eraill (fel blogio er engraifft).
Felly dal ati ond blogia llai.
Welai di'n fuan.

Quit your name dropping. Let's go for another pint soon.
That's a shame, but I understand what you mean about the time it takes. My blog has been sadly neglected for a month or so due to other commitments.
I hope the new projects are going well!
It is a shame, but at least you are staying in Wales which is the important thing.
Pob lwc,
Ian
Great shame.
Not a lot to be added.
All the best.
I am delighted!
I thought DJE would never stop writing his unique form of drivel!
There is a God after all. Praise him!

Well done - and you managed to spell that all by yourself!
Testosterone Tony or whatver alias you are using this week - where has DJE got it wrong during the last few months? He is been absolutely spot on with his comments on the economy.
Hi Dylan. Sorry to hear that you are not going to blog. Your blog offers insights that break out of that narrow parochialism that Wales has become. I enjoyed your article in the Ninnau (august/September)
Look at this -simply hilarious
