	The "maintenance" done here reminds me of our local council road maintenance gang. They fill in a pothole with some gravel & a bit of tar Next time it rains, all the gravel gets washed out. Result - a bigger pothole. This site is full of potholes.

	Hadn't read this for a week or so, but I would just like to assure regular readers that member's posts are being ignored on Facebook also ;-) I note GlitterBaby was thrown to FR dating :-D I end up there so often I thought 'someone was trying to tell me something'!

	We advise new board users to use the 'My threads' facility to look for replies to their requests for assistance. As this option results in the dreaded purple peril, what is the point? In fact, I'm beginning to wonder if there is a 'point' to the GR site maintenance people

	The reason was because when I clicked on that link the error appeared still and it was the link to the messages that I had sent, but couldn't see them because the error appeared. And I'd been away a few days and thought oh I wonder if the site is working better now, but sigh it's not, so I thought nudge it up with a :-\| because one day a member of staff might notice the thread about this and sort it out.

	I can get on site, but most things I do result in an Error Message. I wonder what they were doing in the "elastic" 15 minutes of downtime the other day? The GR Facebook page is ridiculous. Most of it is about shows on TV.

	There doesn´t seem much point in putting an announcement on here to say the site is down if we can´t access the site to read it. Just been timed out again trying to read this post.
