Generally speaking, everything is usually slower on Fridays - companies doing weekly stats, etc ready to send to head office and all manner of other stff like that. Happens every Friday.

Mine seems to have speeded up now, hope thats the same for everyone.

I got the busy screen twice last night so can't blame that on companies weekly stats..................

It's nice to be back. I popped over to the dark side, it was Murph who reminded me of it. What a tiny tiny site. Needed a telescope to make the words out.

A few weeks ago The Ed explained that AB had been disrupted by lots of people using the AB search box. I wonder whether we are being inundated withs earches for Daily Mail prize numbers as it's the final day of that and google searches may be sending everone to AB
