Hopefully it is being run on MySQL, out of interest where is the site hosted?

It doesn't help that 1&1 have become more and more unreliable for database requests....

1&1 have a few data centres, 1 in Slough and a major 1 in Germany.
But it look like the domain name was registered with 1&1 but is hosted with fasthosts.
