There where 30'odd bots reading a lot of pages causing server to be put under a bit of a strain. hopefuly it should even out a bit now they have been blocked.

Its not bots this time. Forums become quite busy and struggling to cope. Always working on optimization.

Re: Ages [slow forum connection]
Jus' saying like........
Two attempts at posting earlier.........true slug/static speed waiting to see "will it-won't it" be going up.
Both times 57 seconds from clicking "submit" to fading to "SQL Error" screen.........switch-sites-come back......the post has gone up.
The innards need a good oiling methinks........Keep trying Andrew.
