Emergency Blog!


Hello to anybody who finds me here!
I woke up yesterday to find that my Country Cottage Chic blog had just disappeared into thin air *poof*!
I have no idea why, but reading the Blogger help boards it seems that this has happened to quite a few people. It is absolutely impossible to actually email someone at Blogger to get help or find out why it has gone.
I feel as if I've been set adrift with no home & no friends!
If anyone has any suggestions on how to resolve this I would be grateful.
So, in the meantime I will use this blog which later on will have lots of photos of the Vintage & Handmade Fair!
Only 7 days to go!!

Saturday PS: Just to let you know that I have set up a new blog as it seems that my old one has disappeared for ever.
I haven't posted anything there yet but if you'd like to find me I am at:
http://countrycottagechic2.blogspot.com

If you have me bookmarked or a link on your blog all you need to do is add "2" after countrycottagechic.

As you can see this blog will be a combined effort between Michele & I for all things V&H Fair!

:-)

  2. I hope you get it sorted!
    I didn't have a clue how to get hold of you to let you know although I did wonder if my computer was playing up.
    ((hugs))

  3. Hi Jayne

    I have tried to access your blog but I receive a warning that it contains malware. Blogger has an automated process to protect against spamming and closes suspicious sites down pronto, to protect the blogging community. Malware can cause spamming, this could be maliciously caused by a commenter on your site or more likely Bloggers defences are too sensitive and are reporting false positives. As it is an automated process no thought process is involved. You have a very short period of grace to recover your blog so please persevere in chasing Blogger. Did you ever keep a backup of your blog?
    Regards Terry ( See you at the V&H )

  5. hi Jayne
    I found you again via Cowboys and Custard. I do hope you can retrieve your blog. I have heard from other people that this is one of the big problems with using Blogger. They can just remove your blog at a whim. I no longer use Blogger for anything that is important to me, but prefer using Word Press and host it with my regular provider - that way I maintain total control over my content.
    Your blog has cheered me up on many a drab morning and has given me loads of inspiration. Hope it's back soon

  8. Oh how awful, you poor thing and I agree, it's hopeless trying to get hold of a real person in cyber world. Hope someone does actually manage to get it back for you soon. See you in a week!

  10. After a bit of blogtrickery I finally found you! I think that Brenda of Country Romance from the Heart may have met the same fate! I'm so glad to have found you. Have you considered Wordpress? If it happens to me, I will go there...in the meantime, I've saved all my faves as bookmarks so I will be able to go in and explain myself!!!!
    hugs

  12. What a nightmare Jayne!
    It couldn't be that you reached your limit, could it? I recently had to buy more storage space for my photos on Picasa...

    Good luck - hope it gets sorted soon - I think I would cry if I lost my blog!

  14. Hello! I found you through Michele. I had a problem with blogger last November, and sadly I was unable to contact them as well. I used to blog as beachyscapecodcupboard, but now I have been using this name since my buggaboo.
    Looking forward to seeing pics of that lovely fair!!!!

  17. Yay, the return of Miss Jayne! I hope you get your original blog sorted out. I winced when I read one of the above comments about backing-up, OUCH. Good plan, but who does it? Not moi! I hope maybe you did....

    everyone is having problems...maybe it's time to switch to wordpress or typepad.

    nice to meet you though :)
