    Adam thanks for the explanation....I must say it is a first class system for "looking back"

    Power outages, I would prefer to list them a power system failures unless they are planned. Rural distribution overheads are prone to failure on adverse weather whether it be wind, osnow and ice. The latter causes sagging leading to shorts between the phases resulting in the tripping of circuits.

    Sorry about that dead time today.
    Nope, no real idea.

    Something dodgy when backups run.
    Remember I mentioned bloated forum size because of all those full-scale images? That.

    Anyway. Apologies again.
    We'll (well... Otto...) get it all squared away eventually. :unsure:

    Glad you're back. I am now posting all images as thumbnails.

    Don't worry about that, mate. Everything posted from now on is a good size, and thumbnails take the same space as the full ones. (Server can take the page strain, purely that we need to shrink previously stored stuff.)

    Keep posting whatever way you wish. The other thing is our problem.

    I don't know what I would do without the forum. So glad it's back. (and on that note there is a donate button somewhere, right?)

    And checked Twitter ever twenty minutes...

    Reminded me to renew my patronage! I'm genuinely grateful to all concerned for your efforts to keep this place going in the same (considerable) style, folks.

    Cheers, Pat

  9. I had a big scare this morning, when ww2talk was not accessible for a while. I feared our beloved forum had been subjected to a nasty cyber attack :eek:

    Probably just war-related paranoïa on my part. Thankfully the bug did not last long !

    Once again; no idea.
    Assuming Otto gave it a kick as we seem to be back.
