Forum Maintenance - Friday 3rd April

Post by CitroJim »

I shall be taking the forum down early in the morning of Good Friday to install a whole raft of patches and updates to the forum web and database servers...

I expect the work to take place at around 05:00 BST and take about 30 minutes...

I apologise here and now for any inconvenience this may cause...

No need to apologise Jim. I'm sure I speak from everyone that we appreciate the work you do in the early hours to keep our forum going. You deserve a medal, made out of a cut down V6 piston [emoji844] [emoji4]

So very true indeed.

I must correct you though Davie, these "early hours" of which you speak are actually Jim's mid-morning break..

Aww James :twisted: Now you've let the cat out of the bag as to what keeps me so busy in the mornings... All this talk of karate practice and swimming was just a cover story....

No it isn't. You have mugged Doctor Who, and convinced him you are allowed to have 32 hours in a day, which is why you sometimes appear to be in a blur!

Folks, there will be a short outage again at around 04:30 on Saturday morning whilst I resolve a small issue with the web sever as a result of enhanced security protection mechanisms introduced with the latest updates.

You may not even see the forums go down...

Touch wood...
