Mr Google seems to be getting his own back for my triumphalism in my last but one blog (22 Dec). The following day (23rd) I wrote a highly topical blog which, by today (27th), four days later, has not yet been published. This is just not acceptable: what is the point of a web page if the rest of the world has to wait at least four days before it can read its most recent inserts? I know in this case that Xmas has intervened between the 23rd and 27th December, as it does most years, but surely the co-ruler of the world doesn’t stop working just because one of the world’s many religions has a holiday?

I hope my reader sees this before 2016. Time to stop being vindictive, Mr Google; either that or get your act together Mr Google.
