Be warned!!

Thankfully a guy called Fabien Canas wrote an app which will fix this. And user Joshua’s comments (half way down the page) helped me fix my issue.
Thanks guys :)

Plugins are:

WordPress.com Stats
Google Analyticator

When I used the WordPress auto plugin updater the updates failed and removed the files from the server! Not sure if this is a bug :(

To reinstall the plugins I downloaded the files from the links above and copied the files to my wordpress install via FTP. Used the Plugins screen to ‘Activate’ each plugin.
All working fine now :)

Went with a friend to see ‘Un Prophete‘ last week. Very good French crime movie, directed by Jacques Audiard.
Well worth a venture out and if you live in London go to see it at the Curzon Soho. Nice indie cinema.

It’s about a US Army bomb squad in Iraq and is directed by Kathryn Bigelow. Highly recommended. :)

I like this phone a lot and it’s great for busy people (like me) as there are many apps to keep track of Twitter, RSS, the weather etc. (via Android Market) while on the go. Plus mobile GMail, GTalk and GMaps.
