There was going to be a whole new look and feel to the website today, brought on by changing the company who hosted the old pages for years, to a new one which will hopefully be a bit cheaper, but no less reliable. \u00a0I say was, because after making the change last night, seemingly failing to import the old site via the provided links and starting again to rebuild it, even managing to import the blog text into a single archive page, \u00a0in the midst of more editing this morning I came to a crashing halt.<\/p>\n
The web page demanded I log on again, \u00a0all last night’s work had vanished and then in the next breath, the old site reappeared! \u00a0I don’t know whether to laugh or cry! \u00a0So it’s as you were, but I’ll look at re-jigging things and add a bit more content anyway.<\/p>\n
