Routine Maintenance

[andy-hughes]

The powers-that-be here at The Answerbank have decided to shut down the site this evening between the hours of 21:00 and 23:00.

They have taken this decision for two reasons -

Firstly the expect site traffic to be zero, since everyone who contibutes on here will be guarenteed to be glued to their TV sets and not on here.

Secondly, the want the site to be in tip-top condition ready for the avalanche of traffic that will commence at 23:01, ans everyone wants to get their opinions off their chests and onto the site.

Any crashes due to overload will be repaired as soon as possible - your patience is appreciated.

Oof. There goes another rib.

The bits I seen on the news were enough for me. Cant bear to watch any more. So am going to be here

[Mamyalynne]

Not guaranteed at all.

[Mozz71]

I don't think everyone will be glued to their TVs Andy. West Ham vs Leeds isn't that big a game.

Multitasking. I'm sure ABers are perfectly capable of watching TV while whinging about it at the same time :-)

Unusually for someone who rarely displays any sense of humour, a-h is having a Turkish, as TTT would say. Planned site shutdowns are advertised by the Ed via stickies.

Comedy gold.

I`d sooner bang my head on the wall for the next year than watch those 2 plonkers.

[Prudie]

Well I won't be watching, bound to pick up the gist off the news and on AB next few days. Now I know she's played the race card any open-mindedness I may have had to their plight has gone out the window.

The usual suspects on a/b say they are not going to watch it.
I bet they are glued to their tellies , popcorn in hand, ha ha.

[Bobbisox1]

Hyacinth says she's changed her mind, popcorn dear?

[Apc2604]

TV is off. OH in study browsing the net and I'm shortly off to bed. Got a headache. I've seen enough of it in previews.
