This was my first go to place for getting advice.

The forum has errors.
Has been like this for a few days at least - I'm guessing the website is defunct?

Just wondering.

Thanks.

There were problems and the owner of the website couldn't be contacted - it's been replaced by Freetrafficlegaladvice website which has almost the same community of helpers and still covers criminal,council and private matters

It's a shame site hasn't been archived properly. Quite a few links to useful transcripts seem to only exist on the now inaccessible Pepipoo forum
