This isn’t a proper post, just a piece of admin, and advance warning that this blog is about to undergo a redesign.
I wanted to warn the regular readers (hi Gina, hi Lyndon) that things could get a bit chaotic around here for a few days / weeks. Nothing serious – but things might look out-of-place while I’m rearranging the furniture.
I know that I should do this offline in a sandpit and sweep the new look out in a blaze of glory, but it’s just not my style.
Actually, it may not get a new look – but it is getting a new WordPress theme.
This could break a few things here and there, especially the way images and pullout quotes are displayed on older posts. Please bear with me.
I’ve also recently taken the spam captcha system off comments, as I realised it wasn’t behaving itself. So far so good, no great influx of spam. If you’ve been frustrated in the past attempting to get past the errant captcha system, many apologies. Please try again now it’s gone.

:O I have just discovered this! Noooo lol. I don’t mind the design I think its nice :/ but that is just me. What you thinking of doing? Anyway, cheers.
Jakk – you’re probably seeing the new design. If there’s orange in the header area, you’re on the new version. It was all going smoothly until I discovered that the technique I’ve used in the header, which uses a transparency, apparently doesn’t work in Internet Explorer. If there’s a big white patch in the header area for anyone, then the transparency isn’t working.
There will still be a lot of messing around to do. But the content will still be here.
Ahhhhhh okidokie. My mistake! My blog works fine in IE8 but refuses to do so in IE6. Oh well, its a technology blog anyway, and anybody using IE6 obviously aren’t interested in technology or development
Yeah, I’ve abandoned IE6 users as well I’m afraid. I just couldn’t figure out a way to do my header that would work for them.
