I thought at first on Monday morning when I attempted to log in at work that I had been busted, thought IT had perhaps noticed it as the most viewed website in the company and restricted my access! :-x

I actually went out on my MTB last night (full moon meant I could see where I was going) because there was no 'Zone

I went to the pub cross-country, met a pal, had three pints, then came home through a swamp by mistake.

So NOT having the 'Zone gave me a better life...

"you dont know what you've got 'till its gone"

I didn't realise how much I enjoyed this site until it went off line. I felt cut off from the community, its a horrid feeeeling!

Viva le zone! Thank you to all those who put in their time and effort for this excellent web site, welcome back everyone and Merry Christmas .. bring on the snow!

Thank Fook, i havn't even got an E30 any more and "WELL" missed this forum the past couple of days!!!!!

I think i can say that i'm not alone in what i've done.

Thought it was my computor at first - blamed the misses
Then blamed my 3 1/2 yr old for breaking some thing on the computor
Then blamed Norton anti virus
Then blamed myself!!!!
Finally rang up Bharat and blamed him LOL.

Few / relif at last, i'm so happy i could cry :cry:

Neil.

It's true, sad but true. My blood almost ran cold when I thought this place had been 'shut down' or whatever!
This place is my home page and I spend a great deal of my spare time on here, so I didn't know what to do with myself!
It's made me realise how little I actually do - although I don't watch any TV so I suppose I do this instead :skip:

good to be back (and relieved)

Welcome back guys.

Our hosting company had changed owners and they were experiencing problems swapping data on servers. I had no way of putting a message up to let you all know.

Very pleased it's finally fixed now.

The Zone is back....Thank goodness, Like all of you I was thinking..

...Not authorised access.??...I've been kicked out for being... Welsh.??
...New server set up at work, spam filter increased level, I've been found out, oh s41t....
...It's an Isle of Man comms problem, bo11ox, wish I lived back in Manchester...

I missed it really I did, how sad is that? ... na, it's normal :D
