Despite rumours to the contrary, my blog isn’t entirely dead, I’ve got many half written articles all stored up for when I get a spare few minutes to turn them into English. Oh, and some content might help too.

I’ve noticed a distinct upturn in the quantity of unhelpful comments being left on some of my more widely linked articles, so to ease the strain on my email inbox telling me I’ve got 45 comments awaiting moderation this morning, I’ve swapped my spam-resisting plugin to one that’s harder for a machine to parse. I’m sorry to say that this time you need javascript in order to get as far as my moderation queue now, which is horrible. If this proves ineffective then I’ll have to break out Akismet.

I’ll have the Lobster Thermidor with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and spam.
