September starts here

Hooray! September’s here, and British summertime has arrived*. Hopefully, you all had nice holidays and are feeling rested – and only slightly bitter that you’ve got to go back to work.

As a result, at The Medium Is Not Enough, service is going to start up again properly, with news, reviews, the regular features, etc, delighting and probably slightly irritating you in equal measure from now on. But due to a minor miracle of planning, etc, I’m going to be working from home three days a week (Monday, Thursday and Friday) for the foreseeable future, so you can probably expect ‘heightened’ services on these days. Which is handy, because all the new TV seasons are starting on the UK and the US this month.

As some point, there might be a minor upgrade to the blogging software I use, which might provide some new shiny features, too. Or it might just obliterate the whole thing and give me extreme stress. We’ll have to see on that one.

Look forward to chatting with you!

* Note for Americans and other aliens: if you’re coming to Britain for your vacation, try to book your break for September or else you’ll be condemned to rain and extreme humidity your entire stay. September is when it starts to get sunny these days.
