The saga of the images
Eventually I have established that the server for my website was changed by my internet provider and when the old address was switched off my pictures disappeared some time after the change over. Older posts were affected and it took me some time to notice this. A couple of years ago the link from my Anarchadia website connected to the old server and for a while it appeared that Engine Punk wasn't being updated. Regular readers may remember their favourites showing my impressions of the Lincoln Vintage Vehicle Society as the most recent blog entry.
So it wasn't a Blogger problem as such.It was me changing IT horses in mid-stream. No backup is now available because all the change occurred 2009, so it's a case of re-loading the images but the blog needs a bit of weed (still damn and blast tho).
Work is going on in the background to restore the old posts in bite sized chunks, like when I'm waiting for the immersion heater to boil the bath water after some intensive welding exploits in the garage/studio/ laboratory/playroom(s).
But now I know what the jinx was I feel content to return to blogging again.
In the meantime, here's a picture of some tastefully arranged Ford Anglias.
