Server problem
« on: 28 June 2005, 13:16 »
As you may have gathered we have had a big problem on the server which resulted in a complete loss of data for the period 22nd March to date. That data has now been recovered and we've now got the forum back online but not without a few teething problems.

We're not sure how reliable and stable the forum will be so don't be suprised if you experience a few problems in the short term.

We know the gallery doesn't work. We'll make sure the forum itself is stable and then get to work on the gallery.

If you come across any problems , please highlight them to us so that we can address them.

Thanks everyone for your patience..............I don't know about you, but I have certainly missed my 'fix'

Thanks Justin for all your hard work in getting us back online :smiley:

Nice to see things back online :)

I'm almost ready with the cash to find a replacement for my written off 8 valve and was doing my nut not keeping on eye on the 'Cars For Sale' section !! :S

Top job guys  :wink:

Len, that was because we had reverted back to a back-up done on the 22nd March, so any pics that you had uploaded prior to then will probably have worked. Unfortunately in recovering the forum data it appears the gallery data has now got corrupted so we'll have to work on that.
