Not just you, I think it's due to solar flares......

(it gets better and worse at times, I think wherever this forum is hosted is on really weak - or multipurpose - hardware... it's probably on Ken's home BI server :) )

It's very slow in the UK.

I do remember in the old days when being in the internet meant your phone line was engaged so no calls.
Many years ago and I worked for ICL / Romania 1997 - 2002 :-).

Now this forum are ok with the speed.
