Planning Ahead

I have asked Mike at Register.ca if Thursday January 31, 2019 would be a good morning to lock the site for a period while they back up all the databases directly within their system. 

That is FAR SUPERIOR to me making a backup off-site. 

I will do that anyway but better safe than sorry.

If that date works for them, I will shut down the sites at or before 6 am on Thursday morning and open them up as soon as possible thereafter.
