Sorry for the delay getting back to you. I managed to contract COVID and chickenpox at the same time and was quite ill! Feeling far better now so playing catch-up a bit!
I'm looking at it now. There have been quite a few hack attempts on the site. Unable to get in they have now dropped back to DDOS attacks.
Site will look a bit weird for now but should work.

Leave it with me

Sorry to hear you've not been well. I did start wondering if it was DDOS (noticed the browser check just now). Thanks for sorting it!

It is weird as it seems intermittent, but good to know someone is looking into it.

Just to save anyone wondering, like me, what the f a DDoS attack is:-

" DDoS Attack means "Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attack" and it is a cybercrime in which the attacker floods a server with internet traffic to prevent users from accessing connected online services and sites."

@OccultScientist glad you're feeling better and here to sort this out.

Not for me it's not.
Could it be something to do with the time stamp being off.
Maybe @OccultScientist has forgotten to change the forum clock?
