peter can I ask if you have saved the threads or not? If not I'll run through those cached links and save them.

Sticky: Guide to using the Freebies Board.... cached link here...

I have it saved it on my computer... Is this of any use or am I barking up the wrong tree???

Judi, you need to click on the "cached" version which is under the link that will come up when you do a search, I've found that one and saved it, I'll let you have what I have found.

Yes it will be of use if threads have to be manually recreated.

If you have the inclination you could backup any other threads you think are important or useful.

What's lost

It's likely (though not definite) we've lost all posts made after June on threads started before June. Actually this won't be that many but it will be some of the big threads e.g. reclaiming bank charges.

I’m confused. I’m terrible with dates at the best of times, but my understand is that that should read.

With the actual cut-off point, I believe, being around the very end of June, around the twenty-ninth.

Please dont repost it yet - as its best to wait until after we restore the pre-june threads. But if you could store it - as there's a worry google cache will delete these old pages.

As you suggest, and as has been noted by others, some of the forum pages have already been re-cached by Google, so even the copies in Google’s cache are missing the posts. Have your techies considered setting the forum website to tell Google not to perform any more indexing on the MSE forum, for the time being? Not ideal, but not too bad an idea for a couple of days.

You know what Alfie I think I read Martin's post totally different this morning than I'm reading now, so I think its bedtime

That was my original understanding of the situation as well.
