As part of our continual effort to improve site performance for users, we will be upgrading our database server on Wednesday June 9th and Thursday June 10th. This will happen during the night (UK time) to minimise disruption, but some of you night-owls may experience an interruption to your service. We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. Thanks for understanding, Michelle

Clare, I never noticed that! Perhaps Michelle is talking about Wed 8th June 2005! I did notice "Genes Team" - not GR/GC. He he he.

Reminds me of the old joke "I'm wearing jeans" "And she's wearing mine".

Thank you from me too. Because of the time difference here in Washington USA (I'm 8 hours behind GMT), it really makes a difference to know these things, and I appreciate the information.

LOL Sorry Bill -we did think of those who are in different time zones but most of the users are in the UK. :) Hope the improvement makes up for it. Michelle
