Apologies...

Something that should have been a walk in the park ended up being a bit of a nightmare.

We are moving server, so we will be seeing a new IP when that has happened.
The server move is scheduled for midnight...when I spotted the site was down I asked the host and they kept telling me they could see the site...everybody was telling me that they could not.

I think we are here, for now, then during the night it will be moved. fingerscrossed

Last night here when you were tucked up in bed I tried logging on. It would let me sign in, tell me I had signed in successfully and then take me back to the login page and tell me to sign in. When I tried it later it said the lights were out and somebody needed to put a shilling in the meter 5mith

Hey, I had the message telling me cache was not writeable... it wasn't my cache that needed clearing... ;)

Working here, looks like a hundred or so posts have disappeared.... (I noted 91999~ in "everything shooting" before the error)...

TG, I think you are about right judging by the current post count and the post count this morning.

Problem lies in when the host took the back up they rolled out on the new server...probably last night.
