You may still have problems - I was "hijacked" on this site last night, all my clicks getting (re?)directed through "cometsysystems--", er, something or other, to wait for ages and end up on "This page cannot be displayed." I quit, then tonight dumped all my shortcuts and links, and re-entered the long way. So far, so good, but it may be a problem you should investigate. Rob

Hi all, Glad I persevered and read right to the end of this thread. Though it was just me finding it tediously slooow, and I'm on broadband! Lord knows what it must be like on dial-up. I think I would've given up! Debbie

Cannot upload my tree - I removed it to update it just before the site went down. Has anybody else had this problem? Russell

Joy, John...........Joy does your "kentish maid" refer to your birth place? By my calculations your reference puts you South-ish of Salisbury ( Always willing to be corrected!!) Bob...

Apologies about the wording regarding how long the site was going to be down. It did take longer than we ancipated. If the future we will make sure the wording is updated. Thanks, Michelle

Thanks Michelle, i was nearly going to have a detox,!!! Wondering..Is it my imagination, or is it possibly that not too many people are into the site yet, but the refresh rate seems astronomically quick, this morning Bob

Hi Michelle Thanks for the explanation...glad its back now. For the length of time the site was down...maybe next time a blanket email to members could be forwarded? or would this be an impossible task (thousands of members) ...Babz

That's true. After a while would they realise it was going to take more than a short while (30-60 minutes) though? Doesn't matter now! :O) What size T shirt do you wear?!
