Sorry I haven’t been updating much recently – after Xmas I had a few health problems, then I’ve been overwhelmed transferring all my and my clients’ websites to a new server as our hosting company Lycos are stopping offering hosting. I’ve transferred most of the sites now, although Lycos have been unhelpful – in fact entirely silent – in allowing the many domains we have to transfer to their new registrars. They’ve not let one go yet… one hopes one won’t have to go to Nominet, but can see it probably being so!

I’ve also spent a lot of time over the weekend setting up my first gameserver for a client. Although I’m interested in (addicted to) online gaming, I’ve never felt the need to have my own game server… then again I’m a bit of a loner and have never been part of a clan despite ranking very high in many RTS titles throughout the 90s!

If you play Call Of Duty United Offensive, visit my friends :{WH}: War Heroes at 85.236.100.24:29160 – The server’s hosted in the UK and is blisteringly fast (I’m not that into shooters, but as admin I felt it my ‘responsibility’ to test the server after the mods and new maps were uploaded. United Offensive is a pretty old game now, but there’re still loads playing it.

I will be back on board properly in the next few days, when we can get a new year of posts, discussions, debates, laughs and friendship started properly. I’ve allsorts to spill about my recent successes, failures and nasty shocks!

Stay cool,

Rob
