Sorry about this, and any knock on issues, we are doing our best to resolve the issues and there may well be some times today that you cannot gain access.


And to think I do this for fun

Hi Jim

Not sure if this is connected, but when I logged on today, the main page said I last visited sometime in May, which is not correct, as I was on line yesterday???

Hi Russell. Yes there are loads of little quirks we are still ironing out, we are getting there though The worst thing is that some members that have joined in the last week or so have to join again. We have already had some Deja vu introductions

The arcade has reverted back to the end of May too

Does that mean you are up or down in the rankings Linda?

I also had an email saying from the site saying not used for a while but it came after I had used the site - funny I thought, must be a problem with one of their scripts not checking dates correctly or something. Reading this thread I now realise it was the 'or something' rather than your code. http://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/images/smilies/rofl1.gif


I wish you well on the incremental restore, always a pain, especially if you do incremental incremental backups.

Good luck in locking down the system and preventing others from causing more grief.
