Sorry we were down!

Thanks to a credit card issue, the blog was down for a couple of hours this morning. My card (with which I pay online bills automatically) expired and a new one was issued, but for some reason that caused absolute chaos. I fail to understand why in this day and age, a credit card for the same person with the same numbers but with only a new expiration date cannot automatically update itself. But it can’t. All the information has to be reentered manually. A pain in the ass.

The problem was compounded by an old email address on file for the account, which meant I had no notice.

At least it’s a relief to know it wasn’t the spammers.
