pwned
Why can't people just write better code?
A few weeks back someone took advantage of some crappy code (thankfully not mine) and successfully compromised my dads site (it wasn't his code either). unfortunately that site is hosted on the same server as this one, so I had to take them all down.
Since then I don't seem to have had much time to fix things (sorry dad) and it's taken a while to get things back to normal.
Working on it.
Kids and Cake
Claire and I felt a need to create a forum
For reasons that I won't go into right now, Claire and I have created a new forum, it's called 'Kids and Cake' and you can find it at http://www.kidsandcake.net .
It's a general parenting forum, aiming to be free / open / fair and I am trying to get new people on-board.
So, go along to http://www.kidsandcake.net and register and/or send the link along to someone that might like it.
Comments now open
I have gone and done something stupid
I've gone and added the ability to comment on posts. It's secure right now but open to abuse.
I'll lock things down in due course.
(addendum - half a day later)
Spambots have already found the site and started posting.
Seasonal update
For the minority of people that would read this
A few little bits of news about everyone, this site and stuff generally. Not that most of you need to pay attention.

Pagerank five
This post is brought to you by the number five and the word awesome
Months and months ago I thought I'd spend a little time promoting my site so that I started to rank well in the search engines for my own name.
Update
Update in the world of Bob
This is just a few words to let you know that I haven't forgotten to update. I have just been *really* *really* busy and really haven't had a chance to sit down for what seems like weeks.
Things for me to do before the long weekend is over :
- Write some of the thoughts that I've been about stuff that I've been working on
- Write about places that I've been in the past couple of weeks (bigass easyjet rant coming up)
- Clean / tidy stuff at home (honest)
- Mow the grass at the back of the house
- Go and by a table and chairs for the back garden
- Finish (well, do some more of) my dads new php'ized database-backed website
- Print some stuff for work BEFORE Tuesday morning!

Well, three out of seven isn't *that* bad. Is it?
