General Housekeeping

How long and how many backups do people keep? I have my boxes set to backup weekly and I always do a backup before I update.

I do them daily at 22:00 and keep 10.

Images are only done manually and occasionally (before I do something I might wish to get back from - if I remember) and I keep 5 (was 2).
[The option for how many you keep is only visible once you turn on a schedule, but it remains active if you switch the scheduling off afterwards - arguably a mis-feature....]

I only do backups before updating. I find it easy enough to set up from scratch in the unlikely event I need to do so.
