Ok site is back online and has undergone major forum upgrades.

this should hopefully fix a number of issues but not everything.

One important feature is you can now add photos directly into the forum posts :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

long time coming that one.

there are a few layout issues that I'll need to sort of the next few days so just bear with me
on that one while I get those sorted.

Hopefully the random redirects disappear with this upgrade :wink:

just to show you how cool the upload pic is, im going to attach a pic of the best 4x4xfar

Got of ship last Sunday in Welly , went for a walk around the Quay,recognised a dirty surf in carpark adjacent to a drinking establishment , must have been a long haired dog.

Got to say you cant beat Wellington on a nice day , well 2/3 of the day anyway.
