Just a brief note to apologise for the lack of forum this evening. Around 6pm this evening the server that hosts all my websites started behaving strangely. After some serious work by my webhosts, they have now got it all up and running again. However, I believe they had to use a backup from earlier today at 11am. Thus if you made a post this afternoon this will have been lost.

What is great about my current hosts is that a full server backup is taken each day, meaning very little is lost.

I think it should be service as normal now, but I'll update this topic as I have further information. :)

It seems that the main hard drive on the server failed earlier this evening and this caused all the problems. A new hard drive was swapped in and all the sites were copied across - all seems to be working now.
