Intermission....

Bit of a gap.  This was due to my interweb service being broken.  We took a cheap monthly deal here as we didn't know how long we'd be in this house.  SFR are the service provider who rent the line from France Telecom (now Orange).  So when the line broke the customer service wheels spun into motion like something from Raferty's motor car.  Anyway it's all fixed - for now.
