Sham Service
Saturday 25th Nov 2006 - Posted By: Ste Riley at 11:12AM
You may have noticed the site having a lot of problems over the past month, this has been down to some pretty shoddy support from my service providers.
First off, at the start of the month I was unable to access my webmail for a number of days. This was followed by a complete loss of service on the 10th November when the site was down for over 30 hours.
When the service returned, PHP5 had been removed from the server without explanation. I have wrote to support on a number of occasions and have been completely ignored when questioning when this service is likely to return to full.
This week again I have lost access to my web mail again and then the mySQL service was lost for 24 hours. The mySQL service has been corrected but the web mail is still down, again no explanation has been offered to why this is.
So far this has been one of the worst experiences I've had with a host provider, the last being with RedStation and I'm getting pretty pissed off with this now.
Update: Ironically the mySQL service dropped for a few minutes while I made this post!
Back From The Capital

Made it back from London in one piece, everything went well and the course was pretty good, learned a fair amount of new tricks.
I booked into the wrong hotel after a bit of a mix up with work on the first night but got that all sorted on Tuesday morning, ended up staying at the Euston Thistle which was quite nice.
The worst event of the trip was a fire alarm at 2:30am on the Thursday morning, meaning the whole hotel had to be evacuated. Just what you need when your completely knackered from walking around for miles the night before.
