I've just rebooted the server machine here after 115 days of unattended and painless uptime. I only did so today because I had a couple of updates which I needed to apply.
Most remarkable of all is that this is the machine cobbled together from the old Duron box which was originally going to be sold. The buyer disappeared, and I ended up getting a very reliable little box it seems!
I've had a home on the web for more years than I care to remember, and a few kind souls persuade me it's worth persisting with keeping it updated. This current incarnation of the site is centred around the blog posts which began back in 1999 as 'the daylog' and continued through my travels and tribulations during the following years.
I don't get out and about nearly as much these days, but I do try to record significant events and trips for posterity. You may also have arrived here by following the trail to my former music blog Songs Heard On Fast Trains. That content is preserved here too.
