I have now had a chance to look at the damage caused by having to re-install WordPress, and I am pleased to be able to report that things are nowhere near as bad as I feared! From what I am able to glean from the reports, the previous version was unstable, perhaps as a result of me load balancing (a stab in the dark), or just me screwing something up because I didn’t read the manual (male trait, I’m afraid). This incarnation would appear to be a lot quicker and has yet to give me any errors (fate has now been tempted).

I spent most of yesterday and today correcting errors and filling up galleries, and I think that the blog is almost ‘As Was’ before ‘Armageddon’. I am aware that there are some flags missing, which I will sort tomorrow morning, some of Cristian’s stuff is not in the right place (again, tomorrow), and a few of the images have a size of 0 x 0 pixels!! These problems will take a bit of time to sort, but are in hand. If anyone sees anything that I have not mentioned, such as a link that no longer works, please let me know and I will try to fix it.

I have managed to add a Google Translate to the footer of each page (which I have tested in French, but I can’t test in any other language), and also a Countdown to the end of the March Caption competition.

We are looking to hold another competition for a Ladies jacket in April, so please let me have your ideas as to what type of competition you would like (default is another caption, so please make suggestions). If you haven’t entered the March competition, the timer at the top right will show you how long you have to go.

Catch you all soon!!
