Required reading: Tags and Categories-Tagged Again! Part I
Many thanks to Grandad. This absolutely horrendous, disjointed post is all his fault but he’ll probably blame it on K8.

No I didn’t win the lottery.
But the Something Temporary that was inserted into Somewhere Personal has been removed! Now if that ain’t some kind of restored freedom then I don’t know what is and I’m happy to report that all associated machinery is back online and running at nominal parameters (in other words…well, never mind).

….as you may have guessed from the previous post.
 I just wasn’t sure if I could last out a longer one at the time ya’ know what I mean?
