Theres a crowd of us camping in a village hall over on the General Board here. Gwynne has sent some red cross parcels over which Val is doling out.

Any other refugees are welcome to join us :)

The answer to why........

The main DNS server that resolves the sites URL into an IP address is experiencing problems, and its owners are working to rectify this.
The majority of members still seem to be able to access the site as their ISPs are routing page requests via servers that have the IP address of the site cached.
Family Tree Forum has no control over this process

Just tried from my favourites for the first time since logging off last night and got in straightaway.

Tim did reply to a PM last night and said it was a server problem but not a server specifically for the FTF site hence the fact that some folks can get in and others can't.

While we are all waiting *passes canapes and glasses of fruit punch* have a look at the other love of my life's site and see if anyone can help out there:

http://z10.invisionfree.com/RDR_Forum/index.php?act=idx

What would really be handy - and its what Im going to do for a while now :) is to email all the dog rescues in your area giving them the link to the Urgent dogs who need rescue places or face being put to sleep this week.

See you all later - keep checking FTF, Im sure we will all be back there soon :)
