Although the blog was not out of commission, it was not possible to make updates for the last week or so.

For about a week now, the online access for folc.ca was out of commission.

The modem quit working but is now back in operation.  Shaw Cable, the high-speed service provider saw fit to send a new modem through the mail service.  That took a week, even though it would probably have been faster to give one of their service technician a new modem to drop off at our address — given that a technician is in our town virtually every day.

Anyway, that is now water under the bridge and no more than to be expected from a monopoly.

All that remains to be done now is to catch up on software updates.  After that there will be the regular updates (now a bit less frequently than before my heart attack in February).

Sorry for the delay, but things will be somewhat more normal from now on.
