I’ve made some minor under-the-bonnet changes to this site, hopefully not breaking anything in the progress by updating the PHP engine and so forth. An aesthetic upgrade will have to wait till I’m yet older and greyer.
One very small addition: in the side bar, you can sign up to get email notifications when there are new posts or new pages. A bit old-fashioned, I know: but a few may find this handy. (You can unsubscribe again from the foot of any email you later receive from server.)
