House

Going Off Air - updated

Just a quickie: easyweb — site and all mail accounts — will be off the air from late in the day on Monday 17th September until a week or so into October.

This is because it all runs on a server at home, and we're moving house, with some time in a caravan in between.

We'll be back up once we have ADSL in the new place.

Update

Back, obviously. Took a bit longer than expected — no thanks to BT and their useless Moving House process that doesn't work if you have an inter-regnum between houses.

New ADSL providers are WebTapestry, who are fab, affordable, and approachable. We're getting 8 Meg despite being in a tiny village miles from anywhere. But it's in Scotland, so it has a BB-enabled exchange, which we're ~50m from. But the move has done something odd to the site's ability to fetch RSS feeds. I suspect it's DNS related as very little else has changed, but I'm still in problem analysis mode.

 

Housemoving

We're on the move next month - having finally sold the current house, we'll be renting a rather nice 4 bedroom house in Cockburnspath, (pronounced Co'path incidentally) which is a few miles along the coast from Dunbar.

While we're there, we'll be looking for a plot to build a house, of which presumably much more later.

Move-in date is set for 21st29th September and we'll be in a caravan for 2 weeks between houses, so I guess we'll be having a joint housewarming/birthday party.
