The Becks & Posh food blog was started in 5 minutes on a whim. Back in May 2004 then work colleague, Tim, was perhaps a little tired of hearing Sam rattle on about food all day long. "Why don't you start a blog?" he said. "A blog?", she replied, "What's that?". Tim explained to Sam that a blog was an online diary and that perhaps she could write one with restaurant reviews. He pointed her in the direction of blogger.com and thus, with what now reads like a rather naive review of Sushi Groove South, Becks & Posh was born. Sam would like to point out that she has absolutely no particular affection for, admiration of, or affinity with Victoria Posh Spice and David Beckham after whom the blog is named. She spent about 3 nanoseconds thinking of the trivial title, never dreaming that one day people would actually read her blog. 'Becks & Posh' is extremely tenuous modern cockney rhyming slang for 'nosh', which is in itself slang for food. Hence Becks & Posh was started in a void, and it was another 3 months before Sam discovered that the were actually other food blogs in the world, and that the biggest gift that blogging would bring her would be the chance to join such an amazing and supportive community of like-minded people.
