    Unexpected Site Down Time 22nd Dec 2011

    Some of you may have been unable to access VPCUK during the early hours of this morning. Specifically between 00:01 and approximately 09:30.

    This was due to an unexpected server error which has since been resolved by the administration team.

    There is a possibiliy that any posts made throughout the duration of the above mensioned time period may be lost.

    Appologies for any inconvience caused.

    Regards

    The Flying Moose
    On behalf of the VPCUK Team.
    Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong

    Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....

    Never had 404 but I do get slowdown. I was talking to Rick at about 2 this morning and had no problems at all.
    I recon it could be something to.do with local isp servers/hubs.
