Yup, the forums are buggered, I've emailed a couple of time and they say "the tech guys are working on it" and the forums will hopefully be back "soon"

Same way I did, I suspect.

It involved a bit of HTML jiggery pokery (technical term there).

Hi all,

Sorry about the meltdown, apparently the tech guys at IPC performed something called a 'server migration' (not sure what this is, answers on a postcard please) and things went wrong.

All fixed now though, hope none of you addicts suffered withdrawal symptoms?!

Hi Green , the easiest way to view and post while the server was down was to use my PS3 as the HTML settings are different to a standard browser.

A MIGRATION .... I came onto www.mbr.co.uk on Thursday night and it was showing "Horse and Bloody Pony" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.........

Anyway , good work tech guys and nice to see you all back up and running

And I thought I was all on my own with that particular site, it's nice to know I'm amongst friends.

I got two lunging reins with my last edition instead of a water bucket and dubbin pot, anyone want to swap?

I got a free trial of a shetland pony... The packet said that it was going to last 30 days but it only lasted 10!

I'm thinking of cancelling my subscription... Besides, my feet kept dragging along the ground (and you can't raise the saddle of these things).

Rubbish or what?
