    It looks alright Foxy as it does say for Archive Use Only.:)

    So it does appear to be OK to access it.;)




    **
    It does actually say that this Forums software is left running as the links from the New site refer to some links on the Old site.**

    thanks pat was starting to worry id done the wrong thing by posting it.

    i noticed it said archive only that why i thought it ok

    just thought with the three hour warning a lot of peeps would have had time to retreive their pms they wanted and thought they would be deleted.:o

    Its alright Foxy, as I say there is a header that says the software has been left running because of the links on the old site that the new site may refer to or get clicked back on say through the Argos thread or some of Frans threads on the Techie board.:)


    I would have thought if the old site wasn't available, it wouldn't be available and locked so that you couldn't even read the threads, which you can.

    I am sure Martin would have spoken on this if it was no mans land.;)
