You may have noticed that you did not receive a daily news email for the last few days. In an attempt to increase the site security I went a little too far and ended up convincing the site that the attempts to read the news feed by our email provider were automated bot attacks - thereby convincing the mail system there was no new news. This is fixed and email should be starting again on Monday. If I work hard enough at it perhaps I can make the site so secure that nobody can read it. Sorry.
