As long as the numbers log in, and the ads at the top work ,and the mods mod the silly little people who logi here, then it don't matter how slow the site is, even if there are other faster sites out there.  Fact is we are all used to coming here.

Get used to it.

I have the same problem intermittently and my computer is not on a household network.  I also have a cable service and live within a mile of the local exchange (though I've no idea which route the cables take).
Although I'm on a relatively slow service up to 2 megabytes, other sites do not suffer in the same way as this one.
However, this site is free to use.  Server bandwidth has to be paid for.  I assume Mike Boxall wants to keep his costs down.  There is a financial squeeze generally and I try to keep my own costs down so I don't see why he shouldn't too.

maybe a paid option on this forum could help this along, I would not mind paying a small fee to get this site upgraded to 2010 standards

i get 1.2 meg, i live miles and miles away for the exchange :(

this site is never slow for me, i have other sites that are slow, but this seems to be ok

CIU could do with not being on such a shared server, but then again a dedicated box will cost more money
