This blog has been running, across multiple incarnations, for nearly as long as blogs were a thing. Its content is a mix of stuff mostly of interest to the Wilson family, although there is some technical content mixed in (mostly so I don’t forget it).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A note about post authors…<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the early days of this blog, Deb and Dennis also contributed articles. Unfortunately, somewhere along the multiple times the blog has been upgraded\/moved\/converted the attributions have disappeared. If it’s clear who the author of a post was, and it wasn’t me, I’ll indicate it at the start of the content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What castle is that?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

That is the Rock of Cashel<\/a>, a famous medieval historical site in Cashel, County Tipperary, Ireland. Something about that brooding image appealed to me, even though it was more a religious site than a castle. Oh well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commenting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Apologies for requiring a login before allowing comments to be posted. In the early days I did allow commenting, but over the years the spam comments ramped up to the point I couldn’t manage them (even with Akismet enabled).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’d really like to contribute to this blog, ping me and we can discuss it. In most cases it’s easier to just tag a post on your favourite social media hub, and we can discuss it there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
