I could swear earlier today it had changed to the style of the American site. I could swear because there was a little link advertising the site redesign and offering a tour. I took a little look round, and decided I like the old UK version better.

That version is now back, it appears to me. What’s going on?

Well, it seems a new version has been appearing intermittently since at least October – see here – but that’s even more odd. What are they doing, why are they waiting, are they going to think better of it? Or is there some preference I can (and have inadvertently) set to see the old version?
