The Move
Well I am going to have to say goodbye to Movable Type and hello to WordPress, my webhosting guy suggested I move to a blog that doesn't use cgi. I am a bit scared that I am starting at the bottom of a steep php learning curve...but so many people use it. How hard can it be? There are also quite a few good arguments for moving to WordPress - here, here, here and here. So expect some freakish looking stuff instead of the sleek little cat you're looking at now. You have been warned. Oh - and I just had a minor revelation. I couldn't figure out why I was getting so much coment-spam - it's not like I'm a famous blog or anything - and then I realised. I think I have a good googlerank i.e. when you type the word 'miaow' into google, I'm the first one that pops up. So maybe that expains it?
...now if they'd just give me back my ftp access I could get started on my reinvention...

Wordpress is a little different, but very easy to manage. Take it from me, I run three of the buggers and I am completely stupid when it comes to CMSs. It does appear to be less daunting and you can learn as you go (I've uploaded a copy to a different directly so I can have a play). Use the Wordpress support forum, they're really good there and you usually have a response within 15 minutes.
