God bless the lovely people at L&M hosting who managed to retrive the database dump from Sunday after the hard disk of wabson's web server died earlier that day. I still have no explanation of why it happened, and what they're going to do to mitigate the chances of it happening again, but at least I managed to restore all the data. It means some of the comments along the lines of "Where did all the photos go?" look a little strange now, but I'm not really worried about that. It's not me who looks silly, anyway :o).

I'd also like to thank Mike at 4G for restoring my wireless net connection to its full glory by killing the connections of the users that were hogging the connection here.

Lastly I'd like to thank my agent, my many fans, and my mother. Natch.
