      Thank you @ViewAhead - It does seem better this morning indeed, so maybe we are over the worst.

          Still problematic for me. Taking 2 or 3 attempts to go to the next page or to get a reply to post.

            Sorry to read this, albeit that it isn't a huge surprise. Sadly, we are in the lap of the Cloudflare Gods on this one...

              I must say I've had very few issues with this site recently. Yes occasionally, like mid morning today, it slows down, but no more frequently than other sites I regularly use like Youtube or BBC.

                Things are noticeably slower from my side this evening, but I suspect that is down to general internet traffic, particularly through Cloudflare which also handles goodness knows how much of the financial transaction data around the world...

                  The speed does vary IMO, but it is slower than usual but not so slow as to be a big problem, as I said earlier my phone is slower than the laptop, both running off the same wifi.

                  I think its marginally better today.

                    I'm finding it very erratic. Yesterday was very slow, early this morning it was almost back to normal but has slowed a bit now.

                      Seems quite normal here this morning, so not entirely sure what is going on.

                        It was more or less normal at 4 a.m. but maybe that was before Cloudflare started getting busy.

                            It's definitely better than it was for me a couple of days ago ( laptop only ). Maybe it's just feeling it's age and taking longer to warm up :old:

                              I thought it was me but I am on my new laptop, a Lenovo ThinkPad and I have to repeat actions often nut hey ho ....

                              I just wish al keypads were the sane. At least this one does not have the numeric keypad to the right!

                                And the first question when you get a new laptop is "OK, so where have they put the ON button on this one"?
                                I would like consistency with the power and port positions too. I had everything at home set up nicely for my work laptop, then they gave me a new one and everything was swapped.
