Linda Lee — My personal bridge blog

Sorry…

It has been a rather dreadful week in the office.  The service which hosts most of our websites was down.  Before the outage we signed up with another provider and we were actually in the act of moving our websites but then CRASH.  Not only were the servers down but for days we couldn’t even get at our files.  Luise has been working very hard to get us back up and running.  Finally the service is up.  We have never had this long an outage before.

We can now finish the job of moving to a new and much more reliable provider.  I believe only bridge blogging still remains to truck across.

I don’t know about you but I really missed bridge blogging when it wasn’t around.  I would think I must blog this and there was no place to blog.  No beautiful blogs from Judy, Aces on bridge and the rest to read each morning.  We had so many emails and questions.

We apologize to all of our readers and bloggers and we hope we can make it up to some of you in a small way.  If you have any desire to buy an ebook now is the time.  We sent out this email to our ebookbridge customers.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

In appreciation of all of our customers and as an apology for this extended down time, we are pleased to offer all of you a free $10.00 discount coupon with the purchase of $25 or more ebooks. To take advantage of this limited time offer, use the following discount coupon code at stage 2 of the check-out process:

Discount Coupon Code: eBooksBridgeIsBACK

This discount-coupon will expire on February 15th, 2011

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

You will have to register and when you are buying the book just insert the Discount Code during checkout.  When you buy a book on ebooksbridge.com you can get both the PDF and the epub files where available (there is no extra fee).  The PDF version can be printed.  It will run on the Kindle as a PDF.  You just load it on.  Either the PDF or the epub file will run on Itunes.  There are instructions on the site for other readers.

Luise was so upset one day that she just came up with this plan.  She wanted to make it up to everyone.  I will try to think of some other cool things for bridgeblogging in the next while too.  Right now I am just grateful the service is back.

So thanks for your patience and understanding.  If you have any thoughts about gifts, goodies or other thank you’s just email me.

I am happy to be back.  I have stories to tell.  Hands to write up.

Linda:

It was a nightmare for everyone — especially you guys! I think it proves how much this site is needed and how much the bloggers and readers both appreciate what you and your staff do for the game. Like they say — accidents happen and I think you all did an amazing job to retrieve all the old blogs and comments as well. Sure it was scary there for a time.

WELCOME BACK. It was missed by everyone!

Now back to the old grind, thank heavens.
