FORUM DOWN ON THURSDAY

We will be taking the forum down on Thursday the 13th June from 10AM until 5PM in order to completely overhaul the underlying server and upgrade the forum software to the latest version. This is essential work, not least to maintain the security on the server. We hope to have it back up and running for 5PM but if it is not back by then it might be the following day. We will do our best to get it all sorted as best we can and as soon as we can but to quote Danny Dog’s father from Peppa Pig “It will take as long as it takes - woof”

We are back and still here with new software in part of the abyss, we will have to do some more upgrading at some point to get it right however for now all is quiet and back to normal on the forum front.

Its been a love/hate relationship ever since the upgrade that started doing it! Sometimes i would have multiple browsers open at the same time with the forum on because it would take so long to load one page topic were disappearing when I eventually got to hit the 'View new posts' button!
