Sorry meant to say on Chrome for android on Kindle Fire.

PhilMcAverty · 09/02/2013 17:11

Slow here too on kindle & laptop. Never mind, I can go and enjoy time with my family.

Am trying app but not keen. Back to RL then (sigh)

It's grapeshot, mumsnet.grapeshot.co.uk - just tell whoever's doing tech (or ads - is it running through the ad server?) today to take it out / turn it off.

Piffpaffpoff · 09/02/2013 17:45

Same here, running super slow or not at all.

duende · 09/02/2013 17:53

It's hardly working for me. Tis page took minutes to load. Come on, tech support, sort it out or I'll have to talk to DP this evening!

Hello. Unhelpfully, things are super-whizzy my end.

Is everyone still finding things slow or has it whizzed up for you too?

grendel · 09/02/2013 18:01

No change at all - still reaaaally reaaallly slow. The only way I can use the site is to click on a link then go have a play on Facebook in another browser window while I wait for the Mumsnet page to load. It's painful to use and has been since at least lunchtime today. As mentioned above, mumsnet.grapeshot.co.uk seems to be where the page loading grinds to an absolute crawl.

pepperrabbit · 09/02/2013 18:03

It is tortuously slow here, I can play roughly 5 games of solitaire while I wait for each page to load.

ElectricSoftParade · 09/02/2013 18:09

So very slow Sad.

HawthornLantern · 09/02/2013 19:41

Don't know what you did, but it worked Smile. Lovely and whizzy now - thank you!

Sallystyle · 09/02/2013 19:53

Thank you!

HelenMumsnet · 09/02/2013 20:13

A pleasure.

Tech might be along in a bit to ask you searching questions, so he can work out what was causing the snailishness. Stand by your keyboards!

upinthehills · 09/02/2013 20:21

To pre-empt any, as I'm off to converse with my DH, I was on a laptop running chrome and it was like it was when you had to use an old dial up connection - everything worked, it just took ages to load up the page for the first time and every click then on set it off on a blank screen for 30sec+ but it did eventually open what you were after.

AnyFucker · 09/02/2013 20:23

Yes, it's better now. Thanks Smile

ElectricSoftParade · 09/02/2013 20:24

Thanks All working again.
