Nothing new here. Odd-ball things have been going on ever since I joined GR, maybe a couple of years ago. They keep tinkering with - sorry, improving the site and peculiar things happen; it settles down then they tinker some more. Len

The only HAPPY ones appear to be GR. I don't think many of us are very happy with all the 'tinkering' that Len mentioned. It's a pain. J

I was told that if we have the happy error message, then to click on refresh. Joy

Did it work for you Joy? It didn't for me. LOL. I keep having to log right out and back in again. I don't know why GR are not telling us what the problem is then we'd have less of these threads wondering about it. I've posted one myself a day or two ago. It's just like Len said, they're tinkering it all goes haywire, then it OK again then they start their messing again. Crazy. J :-))

Does anyone ever get this message: ..........No web site is configured at this address......... This message is only recently coming up. I normally get the happy error message too, I can't understand why genes cannot get it sorted out. Pat x

Thanks Joy, but refresh does not always work for me and I am definitely not Happy thats when I want to throw the b*** pc out the window!!!

Joy Report 23 Jun 2005 23:15

No, Jan, it didn't! I was also told that the technical team working behind the scenes is causing slowness. Joy PS doesn't happen on other sites!!!!

Vera, Yeah I suppose it is a bit different, but even though I am known for having patience i get cross when I am not able to read threads or move to other pages, sometimes pages just freeze. Pat x
