... mind you i am not discounting anything so will do a bit of checking to be sure

According to Bigpond ( verified by fone ) the pipeline carrying the WWW to Australia, comes to us via the sea, and across perth.

There are issues with this pipeline, the amount of data, and some inability to accept connections from some US servers.

According to Whilpool, this is prevalent on lots of ISP's.

Their advice, is to contact your ISP, mention the site(s) you have issues with and ask them to ensure the traceroute to the server is clear and accepted.

I have problems every day. When I change pages it can go off and I get the 'server error'. Also when I am scrolling it stops, the 'hour glass' comes up and I have to wait about 20 seconds for it to come good again
I never have problems accessing the site in the first place though

Hi Bindi.

I have to re calibrate database tables today, and do some server stuff. Will check on load times, etc.
For peace of mind, make sure you have cleared cache. If you get stuck, always LOG OUT, then back in, our site should remove page cache on log-out.

If any issues, Tommy can probably help, or I can give you a guide to sorting.
