Service interuption

Well guys, I may be offline again for a while….
On Christmas eve my recent technology woes reached a new peak.
My laptop has died.
It seems converting some DVD content to ipod format was too much for it and something went pop inside.
So please forgive yet another reduction in posting.
I am beginning to think it may be time to make the switch to Mac.
Hmmmm…. a MacBook Pro maybe?

Quote of the day

I found another amusing quote today, and I felt it warranted a special mention, as well as adding to the Randomness Suggests quote rotation to the right….

Middle age is when your broad mind and narrow waist begin to change places.
E. Joseph Crossman

How very appropriate! Although for some of us it appears already too late - eh boys? :wink:

Bugged RSS2 feed - Homer says….

D’oh!
Yesterday I was informed that the main RSS2 feed for this site was broken/blank/snafued/buggered (delete/insert term/s as appropriate), and it took me until today to sort out why….
I recently upgraded my software on the server for this site, and when I did so it seems the file that handles the feed was corrupted - hence blank feed.
200feet wishes to apologise for the error, and can assure you that normal service has now resumed.
Those of you wishing to subscribe can use the links over there in the ‘Feeds’ section of the right sidebar, where there is an option to subscribe to the posts and/or the comments.
Have a nice day y’all! ;-)

    • OK .... So I don't live that high up anymore.
      I moved. I miss the view loads, but I don't miss the stairs if the pissy lifts break, or some of the neighbours (see pissy lifts).
      I kept the name 200feet cos I liked it - so sue me!
      Plus some would say I have one or two views of my own - cue 200feet.com.
      Feel free to post comments on each entry or page, or use the Contact form.
