The blog has been really quiet this last week or so, as has my Twitter stream and other online outposts. This is due to some serious health issues I’m having at the minute, which is leaving me drained.
Therefore, I’m taking an extended break to hopefully work myself back to full health. I’m currently waiting on some test results to see what the next stage is. There will still be the odd post here as I hand over the blog reins to other writers. 12for12k will be looked after by the core back-room team, so please continue your awesome support there as we move more into 2010.
Thanks for coming by here like you do, and hopefully you’ll still be around when I’m back online. Until the next time, take care.
