For a while there, I thought Alisher Usmanov had sent in some Spetsnaz-trained goons to close me down but it was only my webhost suffering from a major hardware meltdown. Things aren’t yet back to norm, my email is still down, so I’ll hold off posting anything new until tomorrow.

In the meantime, can I just say that it’s a pleasure to be back. I think I needed the break. I’d managed to post a picture a day pretty much for a whole year. Blair’s resignation and Prescott’s departure also hit me hard. It was like losing the ability to tell jokes without the letter ‘k’ in the alphabet. I’m now learning a new vocabulary and I’m beginning to see the funny side of Gordon Brown. I’ve also got lots of housekeeping to catch up with but my sidebar is now newly trimmed and in come a few new blogs including Dave Hill’s new Big Britain.
