*Big news*

The Patch is moving to a self-hosting set-up.
If you are following us I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to move you right along with us, and hopefully we’ll all be ready to go by the end of the month at the latest.  I will schedule a blog post for the 1st of May, so if you normally have us come to you and you don’t see that post we may have had a hiccough.  You may need to re-subscribe – apologies in advance if this happens to you.

I’m looking forward to learning a whole new set of skills and hopefully not messing up the whole shooting match.
I figure that I’m leading the way, showing the kids that you can always learn new things.

As part of the changes I also have ideas about a new look for the blog and adding in a new feature or two.
Then eventually I hope that I can encourage my pair to provide the odd blog post – dutifully typed by me – and have them become more participant than subject from this year onwards.

In the meantime, wish me luck for the move.  See you at our new home shortly.
