HI all
We're back after being offline for a few days. The server system disk went down and I had to wait for a replacement to arrive.
Thank you to all who have notified me by email!
The disk had developed 50 or so bad sectors, after 3 years of service.
Recovery was relatively easy using ddrescue, so didn't have to recover from backups or rebuild anything.
There will have been a little filesystem corruption, but so far it looks good, no data loss.
certbot is playing up, fixing it now.
Glad to be back!

The disk was a SanDisk Ultra 128Gb U1
It's replacement is Sandisk High Endurance 128Gb U3
Webserver logs are written here, so it's seen constant activity.
