While the single picture doesn’t show it, the day was a very busy one for me. I repaired / replaced a bilge pump, sorted out some electronics, did a bit of provisioning, visited some friends at the Moorings/Sunsail base in town, shopped at the chandlery, started cleaning the decks and put grommets into the bimini in preparation for putting that on. All that work and just a single, solitary and not very impressive picture to show for it.
That evening I went back to Mulligan’s for a great cheeseburger and some Carib and saw that the TV was showing The Ashes but most of the crowd was watching a basketball game. It was 3 for 12 right at the outset for the Australians (meaning they already had 3 of their 10 outs and only 12 runs scored) so it looks like England might get to keep the ashes for a bit longer, although it is hard to tell for certain on day 1 of a 4 day test match.

Original hosting provider breaks my old website

My old hosting company, who will remain unnamed although their name starts with “go” and the end rhymes with “baddy”, changed their software with little notice and the original SV-ZANSHIN.COM site stopped working overnight.

Every. Single. Page.

So I’ve transitioned to another provider. These original pages have been migrated, but all the formatting and other features are gone and the will still contain numerous display issues and formatting anomalies.

The manual effort of conversion is too much and not worth the effort involved. Over 1000 blog diary pages like this one are going to remain in this condition. The pictures are full-scale, but won’t expand when clicked. But you can can copy them to view them in their original splendour.
