We'll be offline for a few minutes tonight

There will be a short period where Mumsnet is off the air tonight (Wednesday). Hopefully it won't be for more than a few minutes so there shouldn't be any need to, y'know, talk to your partners or anything.

at typo.

Was taken aback by the fact that I could post on this thread whist the rest of the site was still down

SuperBunny · 28/08/2008 00:50

Hmm, why is there a warning tonight? MN is offline every night and you don't usually tell us

SuperBunny · 28/08/2008 03:50

Oh, I see. I read more of the thread and bow know this may stop it being down every night.

In which case, thanks Tech, And Sorry

eandh · 28/08/2008 06:08

Well it didnt work that well as dd2 had me up at 5.30, made a cup of tea logged on here (whilst she watches cartoons) and it was down again

I was forced to go and browse on netmums

YetMoreTech · 28/08/2008 07:11

eandh, what happened exactly when you tried to use the site at 5:30?

Meanwhile, for the 4:03 club, just to be clear, your raison d'être remains and will continue to do so for a while longer. Last night's changes were, alas, not for you. We're on the case, I promise. When we finally sort you out (next week hopefully) you can heap your tech love upon us.

I has a white page with black writing lots of goobliddok something about java

I could get on the homepage but couldnt then get anywhere else

DD2 looked quite amazed when I went and got her animal books to read to her so it made one person happy

ladytophamhatt · 28/08/2008 07:49

Well? How was it? Was it scary? Did you huddle together and sing like during the Blitz?

ladytophamhatt · 28/08/2008 08:00

god, Hana....I'm sure there must be some law that means you can sue them!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 28/08/2008 08:18

I see we made it back safely
(I'm late as ever)
hooray!

theSuburbanDryad · 28/08/2008 08:30

I actually went on MSN and accused LTH of breaking it. Then I pointed the finger at dh - WHICH HE ADMITTED!

mummylin2495 · 28/08/2008 10:07

so when exactly did it finally go off ?I had to log off as the trauma of not having my messages posted would of been too much for me to bear !!

WilfSell · 28/08/2008 10:19

What? Was there a testcard then? That was funny? It is SO unfair of YMT not to share it with those of us who responsibly took some downtime instead of harrassing him/her all evening...

so come on, who saved it?

ladytophamhatt · 28/08/2008 13:34

southeastastra · 28/08/2008 13:43
