Popular Post Slartibartfast Posted June 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2023 I'm really sorry for the prolonged outage. The server got borked in several interesting ways for unknown reasons. The site will be doing ol' Whores-Drawers dance for a bit while I fix stuff properly so apologies for that.

Rust Collector Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 I’ve been at trade shows for two days, not having access to autoshite was agony! I had to speak to clients instead, and all sorts of other awful things. Cheers @Slartibartfast for getting it sorted. 808 Estate, stripped fred, Matty and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunglebus Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 You have no idea. I painted an entire 10 x 15 foot shed, changed a ball joint on a Zafira, bought my summer wardrobe (3 pairs of shorts), and did my tax return. Awful.
