The Dogmother Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 (edited) I've just had an email back from James about this, and he has asked for a screen shot of the 'server busy' page next time it appears - it's not the usual IE page, but one posted by their server provider. Please send it to james@omlet.co.uk. Ta everso. Edited February 12, 2008 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Up until very recently I was visiting the forum for several short bursts pretty much every day and just about managed to keep up that way. But over the past couple of months "real" life has been getting in the way of forum time, and at the moment I'm logging on for approx 15mins every other day-ish, and it's so frustrating..............I see the red arrows, but haven't got the time to read them all and have to be very selective about the threads that I read . I read as much as I can, frequently neglect to reply and contribute to the discussion because typing takes too long . Haven't been out of NB for weeks Good to see that the forum is popular and busy though, and when my life calms down again (end of next week I hope ) I'll be book myself a day to dedicate to catching up with the forum Keep chatting, keep it nice and friendly and busy..............and if there's any great gossip or giggles going on please someone PM me, so that I'm not too much out of the loop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Glad it wasn't just me I would have been worried had it not happened until today because this is our 1st day through our BT home hub. I am also glad that I am not the only one who treats the forum as a reward for doing some worthy housewify things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I am also glad that I am not the only one who treats the forum as a reward for doing some worthy housewify things That's exactly how I use it! I never used to make time to sit down with a brew, it's a bit too much of a habit now! Crashed on me yesterday - I wondered what was up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I just got a web hosting page with a giraffe on it saying that this forum was too popular for its own good and i should let the forum owner know but I didn't know how to page thingy it because i have only just learnt photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Ahhhh, that's the one we want! Next time one of you sees it - hit the print screen (prt scrn) button at the top of your keyboard, then open Word and paste it into the document (Ctrl +V) and then sent the doc to James.

Egluntyne Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Just to show how busy the forum is here is a screen shot from a few moments ago, when there were 41 people on line. That is on a weekday lunchtime. 41 would have been a record breaker at one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
