Hey, Thanks for coming in over the holiday-break to fix things Andy. No real problem its still readable and does everything it should do still.
I wish I could get some of my people in over the break sometimes.
ATB,
Tony.
It's Stuart who must take the credit for this, he maintains the server. The work was essential to mitigate the effects of the vulnerabilities in the old version of the forum software.

The inconvenience was a small price to pay to keep the forum safe from hackers and suchlike.

Being IT savvy, I know that having the latest version of the forum software is absolutely vital to keep the hackers and of nefarious types at bay. Putting up with the default layout for a few days was a small price to pay.
