Hello campers!
I have been speaking with our site hosts about the obviously slow site response and unavailability over the last few days.
Here is the explanation from Martin at Natty web developers who built and hosts our site.
"Hi Brian
If the problems have been manifest since Wednesday afternoon,
it is definitely because of a server problem. Heart Internet
suffered a major power outage and consequent loss of servers for
anything from 12 to 24 hours (and longer). Things are still
recovering (this was clearly major) and I've been experiencing
the same slowness issue this afternoon.
Hopefully it will all get back to normal in the next couple of
days, but let me know if not.
Have a nice weekend!
Regards,
Martin

Hopefully this explains why your site has been slow and sometimes off-line over the last few days.
