Sorry the site was offline for a bit

[Tech]

Sorry about that. It should be up now....

[GimmeMySquash]

Thanks I can confirm it is all working, many thanks.

[FlossyMoo]

You do realise I nearly had to go to bed to a snoring DH tut

[RonaldMcDonald]

Seriously
I did work....
Seriously

[SpringItOn]

Thank god! I thought the kids had blocked the site using parental settings for a laugh!

I checked FB and Twitter but they were tumbleweed

Please can you tweet when the site goes off line? I nearly dragged the kids out of bed

[Oakmaiden]

I was forced to go to bed!!!

Luckily I couldn't sleep so I got up again.

[mummylin2495]

I'm so glad it's your end. I thought my iPad had gone wrong !

Thought I was going mental. The youview box went all funny then an hour later mn disappears. Thought that the zombie apocalypse had started

[Oakmaiden]

I kept checking that, GMS, but it kept insisting that MN was up!!!

Liars...

A bit? A bit? It was so long. Out there in the deep dark internet, no MN light to guide us home.

[MrsCakesPrecognition]

Would have been lovely if you could find a moment to tweet or FB to let us know... especially when the only reference on Twitter was suggesting that the site had suffered some sort of attack.

I was quite worried for you all - glad all is OK now .

[justmuddlingalong]

Did someone at HQ trip over the flex and pull the plug out the wall a wee bit?

[HawthornLantern]

Ah, there you are! Glad you're back

[o0]

I don't even use twitter but even I checked there to see if MNHQ had posted something.

[Starlingsintheslipstream]

Hurrah, back again. I even ventured to the other side last night... !

[Pipbin]

I tweeted MNHQ to find out what was happening, but nothing.
I agree with previous posters, it would be nice to have a message. I was worried that MN had been hacked and all our data was being stolen by 16 year olds.

[CuttedUpPear]

I was bereft!
I wanted to start a thread (unusual for me) but couldn't

I checked on several sites that were something like isitdown and sitedowncheck and they all said it was working ok.

Liars . Made me think I'd gorn mad.

I too ventured to The Other Side (to see if there were any threads mentioning it) and was appalled I tell you Appalled . Ran away in terror.

[MollyAir]

I had to buy a ton of stuff on ebay, you bastard Undermining harmonious family life, harrumph.

[dancingsusan]

Oh yes, the 'isitdown' place said it was still up and running, but the comments on the page, from posters that evening, said they hadn't been able access.

I expected to find something on twitter, but there was nothing.

[RebeccaMumsnet]

So sorry all, keeper of the Twitter keys was tucked up in bed and Tech was busy doing what Tech does best and fixing the thing (good at this aren't i?)

Sorry to leave you all in the dark. Everything should be back to normal today.

[BlackeyedSusan]

can I say thanks to whoever it was who posted on is it down that they were having a problem as is it down was saying MN was responding.

thought I had broken something...

[CuttedUpPear]

Nothing on the FB MN page either.

Norty

I thought the bailiffs had been and taken you all away in return for unpaid gin bills. Got nothing but a blank page in firefox, though did get a brief sorry message in IE.
