I am still here!
Well, it’s been an interesting couple of months in the Beecroft household, starting in April when my aged father decided he could not cope with living alone hundreds of miles away from the rest of the family any more. Since then it’s been a full soap-opera worth of just about every ridiculous plot thread you…
MegaUpload taken down. Have revamped my website but now not sure why.
Seriously, this fight against piracy is a lot worse than the piracy itself.

I think so too. At least, someone clicked on one of my blog posts about morris dancing, which is all I’ve got on the subject 😉
LOL, I wouldn’t have described the Morris as silly but I suppose some might.
Even one of Coton’s dancers regards the Morris as silly – he just comes for the exercise and the beer 😉
