Advance Notice

Unread post by david63 »

In order to try and overcome the problems that occurred whilst I was on holiday recently I will shortly be moving the site to a new hosting company. I am not sure when but I will update this topic when I know.

There is no action to take on your part - your shortcut/login will remain unchanged.

What you will notice is that the site will be unavailable for a period of time - this can be anything from an hour to (in worst case scenario) 72 hours - although it is normally about four hours, so if you cannot gain access just keep trying - it will come back eventually.

I will, in all probability, do this change overnight (but not sure yet which night).

UPDATE

This will be happening tonight (Wednesday 1st May)

I do so agree. You are amazing David :thumbup: I wasn't sure how I was going to cope without the forum.
BTW OBF how do you do that, quoting someone else's post. Do you go to their post and press the quote button ? then what :? I just love these smilies :wave:

Just hit the "quote" button on the post you want to reply to and then carry on typing your own message below the quoted text MJ. Simples !

Now, when you want to get onto advanced things like adding hyperlinks.....

If ever you want to try anything out there is also a Test section for you to have a little practice on. As qbman says there are loads of other things you can do as well. You'll soon get into the swing of things and if not, just ask.

You certainly may suggest it and, after due consideration :think:, I have decided to ignore it :lolno: basically due to a lack of chocolates :crazy: :crazy:

Hi Jennie

Sorry for my delayed reply but it’s taken me a little time to get over the rebuff that I received from David this morning...I’ve also been searching high and low for some keefy chocolates in the hope that I could change his mind. Guess what? I’ve found the last remaining (in date) box of chocolates and after two milliseconds consideration I’ve decided to send them to you instead...

Enjoy!! :)

Regards

Keith
