(Arrgh factor 10) So I've had a major problem with DragonDrop.org. One of those compounded problems that cost time effort and money to fix. One of those problems that seemed to be two steps forward, one step back. I'm on the right road to fixing it though. Apart from billing problems whereby the company I thought was holding it wasn't - meaning I had an email out of the blue saying "Excuse me, you owe me 4 years hosting". Another problem whereby the server it was on (called Palmer) died, taking with it a big bunch of the DragonDrop files with it. On top of all that, Blogger who I've been friends with for years and years, now owned by google has announced that they are no longer supporting FTP publishing so I've got to re think the way it all works..
Every cloud has a silver lining. . .
This all ties in with a thought that I'd wanted to rip it to bits and put it back together again - which is what I'm doing.

**I'm getting a fresh batch of T-Shirts printed, ready for you lot and I to take on adventures. I'm hoping to look at DragonDrop and work out what it is and what I want to do with it. It's got something to do with Adventure but I'm not quite sure what yet. One thing I do know is that it may be down, but it's not out. Thanks for your patience!

Welcome back!
keep calm and carry on Captain.
Your blog has undergone a contextual mid-life crisis. This is a necessary thing if the things concerned are to grow. (n stuff). All things happen for a reason. The universe moves in ever increasing mysterious ways, yes she does.
[insert other gems of armchair philosophy here]
It'll be worth the effort and the wait I am sure. Prod. P......rod.
Thanks for the kindly words folks. Part way through a re design / conversion from blogger (who I used to love but now don't thanks to google killing FTP support) to wordpress. New design. Feels like a proper grown ups blog.
Ahem. Currently the site has gone live (alive oh) but the images have dropped off - Could be something to do with the DNS updating - so they could be back in a bit.. standby!
Most of the site is now back up, a few extra bits added and I've restored the 2002 to 2006 shirt archives! yay! http://www.dragondrop.org/the-world-famous-dragondrop-adventure-shirts/the-shirts-2002-2006/
