At the moment we have 302 guests - we always have a huge number like that. I wonder if they are all truly guests or what? They use up bandwidth.

No problems here, Bobby.

But, if there was a slowdown I'd hazard a guess and say it might have something to do with aquascoot's endless word salads praising Donald Trump in the America section. Undecided

Perhaps it's time for him to think about setting up something like ilovedonaldtrump.com.au and take his word salads there (so we don't have to see them here)?

LOL - it's still a bit slow but it's useable.

It won't work.

I tried using an image host with an image link
but it's still not loading the page.
It says -

The connection was reset.
Try:

Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_RESET

Time to sign out and come back later.

I did an experiment last night around midnight. I tried 3 different browsers and all failed to connect but when I used a proxy server it went straight to Ozpol easily. I checked my firewall and Ozpol was not blocked. This shall remain a mystery.
