Hi everyone,

Much to my utter disappointment, we're going to have to move this website (and the 9 other websites I am running) to a new hosting company. Our current host (1and1.co.uk) has proven to be the most incompetent, unhelpful, and badly run hosting company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with.

They, I can now confirm are entirely responsible for the numerous database troubles that constantly plague not just this site, but all the sites I have.

What this means is the site at some point hopefully in the near future, will have to be shut down for as long as 6 days (though it is usually sorted in 24 hours), while we back up our databases, transfer them, reinstall everything, and get it all tested.
