OK, back to normal then
I’ve been trying to upgrade to the latest version of MT for several days. First of all couldn’t ftp stuff because of our firewall (except that I didn’t know it stopped you doing this, so that took a while to sort out). Then it all seemed to work but I kept getting error messages. Finally gave up and went back to Blogger. Then thanks to the lovely people at the MT forums, re-uploaded one small (but apparently crucial file) and now all is well.
This version of MT has better spam protection built in, but it may take me a while to tweak it, so if some of your comments are rejected, I apologise – but please drop me an email so I can sort it out. I’m still undecided as to whether MT is worth all the hassle of hosting it myself, when I almost certainly don’t make use of all the functionality of it. But for now, it’s set up, it’s working – so I’m sticking with it. However we’re planning on moving webhosts soon as well, so I expect that will cause no end of hassles as well.
On a brighter note, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas. I haven’t had my ‘proper’ Christmas yet, but I did get G4′s latest CD from Newt, and although I had to work on Christmas Day I had a lovely delivery and spent all shift with a really nice family, so it wasn’t so bad at all. Newt is off visiting his parents for a few days, so it’s just me and the cats for now, and they’re very grumpy because it’s too cold for them to stay out for long.
