Hello all,
We are planning to take the site down for a few minutes late morning (UK morning) tomorrow, Jan 31st. We will of course keep the down time to an absolute minimum. We are replacing a server, so it's unavoidable I'm afraid.

Regards,
Tech

or maybe...she could actually do some housework....DH would be pleased!!!!!!

It'll be OK.

It'll be OK.

How many minutes in a 'few'?
To the nearest millisecond?
Cos I was just wondering.

We'll be going off in about 10 minutes. Hopefully only for about 15 minutes.

What time is late morning? I am going to Gap at noon for about 30 mins so then would be good.

TIA
