I'm sorry for some ups & downs with the website over the last week or two but I've negotiated a shift to a more reliable server in the next day or so.
During the shifting process it is unlikely that anyone will notice any glitches at all but if ............

I'll keep everyone up todate with progress & I appreciate any comments or notifications of anything you may experience during and after this shift. (I need to keep the B******** honest!)

ETA 11PM on Monday 4th March there may be a temporary glitch or two as our site is moved from one sick server to (hopefully) a more healthy one.
Most will see no downtime whereas, depending on your Internet Provider (ISP), some may experience a little downtime until the DNS is updated.
Hopefully by tomorrow morning we'll be zooming along nicely. (yeah right!!)
I'm sorry if this effects some night owls behavioural habits ! ! !

Hi Russell...
Yep bill has been paid & in fact I just received this message...

Good afternoon ******!,

Thank you for your email.

I'm aware that your server has recently experienced CPU issues due to
other users on the server the overusing the resources. Please accept my
apologies for any inconvenience this has caused you. I see that your
sites are going to be migrated tonight. The new server you're going to
has Cloud Linux on it, meaning over-usage will not be possible.

I see that you've been with us since March 2006. I'd like to take this
opportunity to thank you for your continued support over all those
years. As a token of our appreciation of your loyalty to our company,
please accept the month's free hosting I've placed on your account,
rolling forward your renewal date from 11/09/2013 to 11/10/2013.

OK I'm sure I'm not the only one who has had some of my posts 'pooft'?
I reckon we can blame an ill wind? (blows no good!)
As the website was migrated to this new forum at around mid afternoon any post between then and the time you stopped seeing the old one & began seeing the 'new' one, any posts made have mysteriously vanished!

I probably should have closed the forum for maintenance but ..........

Sorry! ..........

If there was any 'good' posts I'll try and grab them but let me know real quick!!
