 :) Thanks to everyone who helped to get the forum back after a long absence. If it had been a garden the weeds and grass would be a meter high  :D

Indeed Barry, I know very well the effect when my garden is neglected for a very short time ;)

It was a long hard period of communications with a web hosting service that has lost its once very good reputation. 
Moving to another provider is quite challenging, especially when a database (for the forum) is considered. I keep hoping they will improve but after more than a year, they have made very little improvement.

I did despair for the forum for a long time, fearing it was gone for ever.
Many thanks to tanathka (my ex-colleague at Belfast Telegraph Newspapers - James Hill) who worked with the foum locally to fix the issues and sent me the file to upload. It went relatively smoothly 8)
