OK,

Today started fine, read the story about flying penguins, thought maybe.

Did some forum posting in the afternoon and replied to a PM.

Had dinner about 7pm and washed dishes, yes washed them in the sink.

Clicked IE on computer, the favourites, the clubarnage as usual only to get this...................




It has taken me half a frigging hour to get where I want to be.

So is this the annual CA practical joke (because I've had it before but can't remember when) or is this browser jacking or whatever they call it?

Basically  the Domain expired last night even though it had been renewed. 

So once your dns cached records expired you couldn't get to the site any longer.

So someone fouled up  but it was not anyone we know.

So is it sorted now?  We have service and the registration continues?

Well done the techies for sorting it for us all so quickly.
