LDBA web site hit by hacker's virus
Due to a virus that hit our site recently, all data pertaining to the LDBA's news and activities during the period 2009/2010 has been wiped out! We apologize to recent visitors who may have thought they'd taken a step back in time (or that we'd done so ourselves...) when they found that our latest news were of... 2008! The problem has been cleared now, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We have tried to recreate as much as possible of the site's contents, and hope not to have missed any substantial data. |
