Ah Bum!!!

I just lost three months of posts on my blog – which is why the last post is from Nov last year.

Not happy!

I have a small glimmer of hope that my hosting company has a backup that is later than mine – Jan 8 2009…

Why does it always take a disaster to make me see the light!

Automatic backups people!

Anyway, I will hopefully have them back soon! Amen!

Dave, I know it’s not much help now, but for the future you may want to check out WP-DB-Backup. I put it in as my website above. We use it at the Way We See It, and it’s been a lifesaver!

That is unfortunate. Do you subscribe to your own blog in Google Reader, if so, then you should be able to get your old posts from there (minus some formatting details)… if not, I can email them over to you.

Evan: Thanks for the heads up, I have installed the plugin, I get emailed a backup each week now!

James: Brilliant, I have used that to reconstruct the blog.
