It's going very slow for me at the moment. I've asked the guys over in the Management Discussion section if we can move the forum back over to www.the-fastlane.co.uk/images/Benhuset. Aside from taking a few hours to download and then reupload, it's not a big deal.

Yes. Last Monday I couldn't even go to work because there were no buses. The whole city stopped, it was incredible. And through the whole weekend there was this feeling of panic and fear around.

But, life goes on. It seems to be fine now, let's see for how much longer.

Really slow the last couple of times I have been here. I tried a few hours ago and gave up.... Just tried again and I clicked to open a post, went for a piss , came back and it was still finishing loading then. Ive got 'only' 512 ADSL, but it seems slower than dial up. Not having any problems elsewhere.

Same here. I could write my exams while I open a thread. Right now no doubt, it's going slow. "Where is my beloved fast Fastlane forum gone?" :happy: :wink:

The forum will be back at www.the-fastlane.co.uk/images/Benhuset tomorrow night, I guarantee it. This is ridiculous. :evil:

I'm not going to move it tonight, actually, it seems alright. I think what's best is that I get some webspace of my own. What's the point of this being called The Fastlane, yet having the URL "www.racecarsgalore.com" or "www.the-fastlane.co.uk/images/Benhuset"? :huh:

May I just join this discussion by saying that I've never had any loading problems whatsoever with this forum as long as I've been here. :)
