Essential maintenance

To the 800+ readers, lurkers and bloggers who are now checking in here each month... or alternatively, to my 1 reader who is clicking in here 800 times a month... have a fantastic summer. I'm now off to the beach for a few weeks with a big pile of books and an iPod. Back later this month for site upgrade (or just a bit of tweaking, depending on how technical I'm feeling) and all the latest news from the world of words. Take it easy out there.
