• Added a couple of links on the left-hand side.
• Installed a new theme.
• My links had disappeared!
• Looked at how to edit the theme. Didn’t understand.
• Uninstalled the theme again. At least my links reappeared.

The other thing I’ve done today is install this blog. Immediately ran into the problem that it wants me to use an app called ‘Clef’ to log in, which requires me to have a mobile phone that can run apps, which I haven’t got. Bloody technology. Never mind, it doesn’t seem to be compulsory.
