Several months without a post is inexcusable but I think that I have good reason for my absence.  A house move, renovating said house, a potential redundancy situation at work, PhD stuff, a conference presentation, producing the department teaching timetable and preparing for a new academic year have all got in the way, sapping my blogging time.  But, for better or for worse, I am now back.  Expect to see some signs of life here from now on.  And now, over to Devo.
