In the news...

- 23rd August. Things have been deliberately quiet around here lately while I tested if apterous could survive without my constant intervention. It appears it can, which is lucky as I am off on holiday til September. Everything should work as normal but donations may take a little while to be processed, and I'll probably get a little behind on other correspondence (notwithstanding that I already have a little behind). So long, Britain!
- 26th August. Paul McKevitt joined.
- 30th August. Seems we've had some downtime. We'll see whether it stays up now. PS Yes I am having an awesome time in Italy.
- 30th August. Reuben Kay joined.
