Sorry people, there was an outage on the server tonight. I have just fixed it and hopefully it won't happen again until Mike is back! He's up in Wellington for the Rallywoods trip... and get this... he didn't even bring his laptop with him!!!
Thanks to Jerry for alerting me to the problem. If you encounter an error saying something like "Too many connections" then txt me on 021549540 and I'll try and sort it out as quick as I can.

Just so you're aware, a huge number of servers have been down a lot recently. Our work web-designer tells us that there has been an unprecedented bout of serious server hacking, so it might re-occur. Our website's been down more often than not for the last week!

Thanks for the heads up. But this one appears to be related to a bug in the new forum software that ORE is running. There is a problem with the search function not closing it's database connections properly, so if you could go easy on the searches until they release a patch that may help
