I've been having hassles the last few days. I can't get to the forum directly from my 'favourites' but can do it through the site which I access through my favourites......
It was a major hassle writing the Crescent thread this morning as it didn't like me uploading photos either......

I have a 2 month old laptop with Windows 10 and it is not stopping the problems described, sometimes websites reach their pre-allocated memory and they then need the host company to allocate additional memory, not saying this is the case here but just putting it out there for consideration.

Please use a web hosting site (like photobucket) to store pictures so you can post them here, using attachments makes it hard to view the pictures when you have to scroll to see them. Seeing comparisons of models is hard to see with attachments too.

Loading the site was a bit slow a couple of days ago but no problems today.

I use Safari via my iPad most of the time and the issues raised here are news to me. Instant page refresh and nothing missing at all......Strange

I've noticed it, too, especially when trying to post. If this works okay, I'll chalk it up to a temporary glitch.

I'm using Chrome with Windows Vista. What I'm seeing flash up briefly is an error page with the message ERR_CONNECTION_RESET.
Having done a bit of Googling, it looks as though this may be something to do with a setting (presumably on the VBD server) to prevent repeated refreshing of a page, something which, apparently, has something to do with thwarting spammers.
