Hello, and welcome to my website!
At inception on 8th July 2017, it was a test system. I wanted to see if I could use an online virtual computer to run a Linux server, install the software packages necessary to build dynamic websites, put WordPress on and tinker with.

It’s been up and down more often than a sexual innuendo and has moved from the Amazon Web Services platform to a less feature-rich but cheaper, simpler OVH.co.uk service. So technically, this is my second webserver. Or if you count reloads, maybe my seventh or eighth. Plus the OTRS physical server…
