has anyone else noticed this? it started maybe 3 weeks ago.

it's so bad i can't look at any images despite being on broadband, i've tried several times to view but several minutes to get only a third of a photo is beyond my patience...

just wondering if anyone else has noticed this?

this is the only site i visit that i am noticing, so it's not my bb connection.

cheers,

mark.

I've noticed it on the very rare occasion Mark but I generally find this site considserably more relliable than a couple of others I frequent.
I havn't noticed any issues today, although I've only been popping in very briefly.

I get it sometimes where it won't even load the post. I can view the main page but when try to look at a post it takes ages and then it gives up. I'm on pretty fast broadband. I put it down to the pages being updated when I'm trying to view, or high traffic. I usually just try again later and it's ok.....

In fact thinking about it Mark I had some problems accesing the site about a week ago. Sometimes nothing would load, other times the home page came up ok but the UK section wouldn't load.

No problems over here. I was not much on line last weeks may be I missed the "fun".

As far as I'm aware, there are no server problems, but I'll pass the comments to Jim just in case.

nope not had any issues here - other than a weak mobile/gsm signal :rolleyes:. I haven't heard of any issues from Jim either.
