I already offered Grayhost hosting of 40Gb monthly bandwidth and 2Gb storage space, but I think they're enjoying the challenge of trying to run a server. They were not interested in professional hosting. The problem is that running a server from home and trying to service all the video and photo requests on a DSL connection is not going to work unless people want to wait ages for downloads.

Ho Hum!

Hi Kat and Mint, it seems you are putting yourself through it a bit with the server.

May I make a suggestion, there's a UK company oneandone, who would host your site.

They offer 40Gb of bandwidth per month within their package, which works out at 1.3Gb per day.

They also have T3 connections so everything would speed up massively.

The draw back is they only offer 600Mb of space, but if you rotated your content you could get around that, maybe even open a second site as an archive.

Just a thought- might find life a lot easier : )

By the way, it only costs a fiver a week

For next few hours i am pulling down the server to do a massive update.

This will include several photo updates , repair of faulty video link , and closure of lycos account being moved to my server.

Also our e-mail address is going to change also very shortly.

will keep you posted should go live in a few hours.

when update is done the server is going to be hammerd so be patient.

Kat and Mint
