2021

THIS WAS THE BLOG AS AT THE END OF 2021. Note any links may no longer work as I won't try to maintain them on these historic pages.

This page is a "blog" of my progress in developing this site. If you are watching my progress, or want to see what has been added since you last visited, most of the details should be listed here (but I'm only aiming for the 'headlines', not every single change). If you have not read this blog before, the first entry at the bottom gives details about my starting point for this year and my hopes and intentions for the future. Most descriptions listed in my blog are from the previous day. This allows me to update today's blog earlier, without having to re-edit for any changes I may get time to do late in the day.

• HOORAY! I can finally declare the conversion process is over, with just two casualties. First, my Belgium spares need to be reconstructed, and I will start doing this in January 2022, which may include new additions not just the original items. Second, I need to find an alternative way to display the images for my UK wants list. The list of numbers is up to date and the images are more helpful than crucial, so I'm not putting any timescale on trying to fix this.

• I'm now going to take the rest of the year off to recharge my batteries. I'm looking forward to getting back to 'normal' (!) in the new year.

• HOORAY!! I have, after 12 months very hard work, finally converted all of my websites just before the deadline. Of course, I've only managed to do so by 'cheating' and have to go back and fill in all the missing images to the last 100+ sites. There is also the huge task of updating all the broken links, so I still have several months of work to do to finish altogether, but I can now also start to catch up on all the additions I would normally have otherwise done in the last 12 months. The bulk of my progress between now and the end of the year will still focus on completing the conversion, but I will make a few additions whenever I can squeeze them in. A big thank you to everybody who has continued trading with me this year, and I hope you will start to see the mats you sent me on the website soon.

• I can't update the broken links until 30 days after I converted the two main entry points to my sites (SeeMyMats and beermatwiki), so I will start in September, and aim to do so in a structured methodical sequence so I don't miss any sites and/or pages.

There are still about 40 German sites to convert (including all the Various letters), and I also have most of the Other Mats (i.e. non-brewery) sections to do. From now on, I will just focus on one section at a time. I will complete the Anheuser-Busch, Belgium, Canada and Czech collections, but from then on any remaining sites will only be partially converted, that is, I will convert it only as an empty site so I can meet the deadline, with the addition of the images to follow as soon as I can manage once all sites have been converted.

Start of this year's Blog - January 2021

See the subpage for what I did in 2020, that will go down in history as the (first!?) year of Covid. A strange year, affecting people all around the world.

Covid apart, the biggest impact on my year has been the requirement to convert all my websites to Google's new system (I use Google Sites), which dominated the last quarter of the year and will continue for at least another 6 months into 2021. I have to meet a conversion deadline imposed by Google that leaves me little time to do much else.

Before the conversion problem occurred, I was doing well, with all countries except Germany up to date and I was making good progress on the Other Mats section. I'd done some updates to my Wanted section, and added a lot more links to my Name Finder page. But since conversion, I've had to put most other updates on hold, and am now starting to get a big backlog of new mats to scan and add to the site.

I managed to convert all my UK brewery sites, and most of the smaller World brewery sites, before the year end. I will now start cycling back through the medium-sized ones, before finally finishing with the largest ones. I will also make a start on the other sections, namely Listed by BBCS, Other Mats, and all my brewery spares. There remain many broken links between sites, but I can only really correct all these after all the other conversion work is complete.

Because of the necessary conversion work, I am not able to add many new spares, but I still have many thousands to add. As always, if you want any specific beermats, please let me know what you are interested in and I will do my best to help you, time permitting.

Of course, there are constantly new additions that mean I need to update breweries or sections previously considered 'complete'. I will tend to do these in batches, which means some may be held at the back of the queue, so if you have sent me a beermat recently, there may be a delay before I can add it to my site.
