Well, the Elves have decided that this week is the right time for a complete shutdown, clean wipe & reinstallation of all our services at the North Pole, and who am I to contradict my Able Assistants who are experts in this field. The Elves are obviously determined to get this nasty chore over & done with in advance of the busy time ahead.

So don't you worry Dear Tinker if I'm unable to communicate for the next few days (or however long it takes), there is a backup service locally which can be accessed in need.

Please note that all spells will continue to be enforcable during this planned shut-down. Patience is definitely a Virtue.....
