Regular visitors will notice minor disruption to the site home page from time to time. This is because we are improving "Haiku of the Moment". And like all software development, and this is a major rewrite, we have a bug or two. Well we pretty much expected that to happen. After all, I never knew a software implementation that went 100% to plan yet.

Bear with us and the sometimes odd appearance of the homepage while we comeplete development.

We seem to have hit a major and amusing bug. We changed HotM every time the home page was visited. So loads of people got a HotM award which we are resetting AND a small pile of email.

Er, "Sorry!"

BTW, this may happen a couple more times

Hectic but fun.

We had backed the database up and just restored it. I say "just" coz I have NO IDEA how megaman did that part!

Anyway we'll have another run at it tomorrow. We are now having a chocolate break.

It would have been nice though!



Friendship is the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts or measure words
