My e-mails were timing out earlier this evening Tony, but they seem to be back to normal now.

I just had a thought [dangerous I know  ;D] I noticed it around 3.00 PM this afternoon, right up to I went for my dinner [posh or what] around 5.30PM. Anyway I was back on at 8.00PM and it was still slow, then come 9.00PM it was OK.

Right US Fin Markets open at 9.30AM their time -2.30pm our time, they close at 4.00PM their time which is 9.00PM our time. So I reckon offices in the US have swamped the web trying to catch up with all the mail, first Monday back after the Holiday period.......possible cause I reckon  :)


There again, I could be talking complete ballards.....it has been know on occasion  ;D
