• Another New Server, but hey, what's wrong with that?

  by katieglover October 5, 2011
  Have you noticed?  Our site has been getting slower and slower over the last few weeks so we took the decision to move to a bigger, better, faster server with more RAM.  The transfer took around ten minutes during which time the site was down but I did take the precaution of posting notice...

• Our New Adverts

  by katieglover September 16, 2011
  You may have noticed that we have recently done away with the dating site adverts which used to adorn our pages.  We've taken a bit of a chance because although they didn't really fit in with the image we are trying to portray, they did pay for themselves.  However, you said you didn't wan...

  by katieglover May 11, 2011

• Has anyone else noticed The Trib was actually sent in error

  by katieglover April 22, 2011
  Has anyone else noticed that The Trib was actually sent in error, before it was finished and ready to send out?  I'm actually hopping mad because a developer was supposed to be fixing several major problems with our newsletter software and by accident, he sent a half finished newsletter our...

• The Continuing Saga of the "Soft Launch"

  by katieglover April 10, 2011
  And so dear reader, the "Soft Launch" continues.  We had hoped that we could have a big new site launch party in a blaze of publicity this weekend but alas, it was not to be. The trouble is down to the membership subscription system which appears to be suffering from various teething problems ...

• We've done it !!!

  by katieglover April 5, 2011
  Hooray!  We've finally done it and I'm soooo pleased!!! Our new community site is online at last.  It was a bit shaky to start with and we had a short time when the site got so slow it nearly crashed altogether, but we fixed that and it's quite speedy now.  We'll work on making i...
