We are sorry for the recent downtime that caused this site and every other site hosted on my server to be down for around 7 and three quarter hours.
We are awaiting an incident report from the Data Centre as to what the cause of the downtime was.
We will update this post with that information as soon as it's available. -
Today I have upgraded the forum software to the latest version.
All apps have been upgraded to their latest versions as well.
Please note: From now on you will need to use your EMAIL ADDRESS instead of your Display Name to login to this forum.
This was part of the upgraded forum software, and I can't change this back to Display Names.
Please make a note of this, or you will no longer be able to login.
NEW FEATURE: Achievements - can be earned for a variety of things
Any errors or issues with the forum software or apps, then please post here.

Sorry about the recent downtime that started around 11pm (UK time) & ended around 8am (UK time).
This was due to an issue at the Data Centre which has now been resolved.

Some people do pop by from time to time, tho the forum isn't as active as it once was.
I check this forum on an almost weekly basis, but am unable to give advice about birds due to never having owned any.
I'm mainly here as a forum maintainer and support.
The Netsta, does check in here from time to time as well.

The downtime was caused by an outage at the Data Centre that caused all the servers in the Data Centre to become inaccessible outside of the Data Centre.
