Have you seen the thread on the tips board that Colin from Hampshire has started called Attention GC? Please add to it so that GC can see how we all feel about the appalling way this site is being run at the moment. I have contacted them, it took me an hour, to advise them of the thread. We can make it our petition. Margaret

Nudge Nudge Ive also contacted them ,as i know many other people have. Nobody seems to be getting a reply from them. Friendsreunited is working fine. Things are so slow, people are having so many problems. Your lucky to get on here, no wonder its quiet tonite. Sarah

So I am not the only one who is having problems!! But three things:- 1. Can somebody find the message, and nudge it up. I have looked but can't find it. 2. Could the site be the victim of its own success? 3. Could it be that it is suffering a virus, similar to that which affected FreeBMD? Paul

I am the same as Sandra - on BT Surftime and today has been particularly difficult. This is my 3rd time on tonight and it seems to be moving OK now. Keep your fingers and toes crossed.!!!!!!

Slower than a slow thing, very frustrating. I Paid extra for broadband to speed things up. This is ridiculous!!!

I would likwe to know why, when I type in the URL, I occasionally get a message telling me I'm not authorised to view this page.
