Rumours of my death are somewhat overstated

Where has Aardvark Daily been for the past few weeks?

Was I taking a holiday on a remote pacific island where there's no internet connectivity?

I fear not. I've actually been laid flat by an accute attack of sciatica that left me in agonising pain and unable to stand or even sit.

My GP prescribed me some medication and I was starting to improve before I had a major resurgence of the pain and ended up without sleep for three days.

The wife called an ambulance because I was out of my head with fatigue and pain so I ended up in the hospital where they gave me the really serious painkillers and some stronger anti-inflammatories.

I'm home again now and the new meds certainly seem to be far more effective than the ones the GP prescribed so here I am, able to sit up or stand for several minutes at a time -- before the pain starts to returm.

At the rate things are getting better I should be back to delivering your daily dose next week and I appreciate all those who have emailed me with their concerns. If I haven't replied to that email then it's probably because I've had to go and lay down again for a while.

Stay tuned and watch out for more content next week, I already have a number of columns planned and some interesting material to share with you from an OAI request to our council :-)

Forums are Down

Damn, why is it so hard to keep any reliable forum capability going these days?

I'll be working to get the forums up again but it seems that it might not be a simple task. The hosting company has obviously changed something but now it's up to me to try and get PHPBB working with their new configuration :-/
