Sorry about the outage.

It was a suprise to all of us. If we knew about the possiblity of trouble we would have let everyone know.

Hope it wasn't too inconvenient.

Thanks Robmints.

I think I'd have to call one of the stores directly and see if they'd ship it to me. It appears the on-line store would ship it from the US, and I'd get hit with the brokers/customs fees again. (I think I was mistaken about it being duty: was likely brokerage that cost so much)

I'm OK now, I went on a 24hr drinking binge.

It would have been nice to know about the downtime so we weren't scampering all around. I know we Mods wish we had the information in advance to provide everyone. Thanks for your patients!

Paula,

Me thinks it is time for you to make an appointment with your hairdresser for a deep penetrating anti-blonding treatment for your hair roots. Seems a few blonde ones have taken hold and grown into your brain.

Paula, sweetheart®

Are you sure that isn't a gold plated mouthpiece you have sitting on the mantle? It would have to be the size of a wrestler's championship belt to accomodate your substantial muscle structure in that area of your anatomy.

Thanks to Marshall I have again found the site.

I assume everyone found the address by word of mouth. Although searches found the site it would never connect.

I also had to re enter my name and password since Firefox did not recognize the numeric address as Abbys.

Is this something that will be corrected? If it will stay this way I could forward the new address to the members who are in my email address book.

I have learned it is a good idea to keep the moderator addresses in case you run into trouble in the future.
