Just a quick announcement to let you all know that this site is undergoing another redesign. The old layout was elegant but rapidly outgrowing its capabilities; Blogger’s Dynamic Views just aren’t customisable enough, and worse, several browsers weren’t even rendering it properly! The design focused too much on the blog and not enough on my static content.

So over the next day or so you may notice several changes. It might be disruptive to in the short term but will produce a more flexible, more powerful website in the end. Thanks for your patience.
