Nick, well done on the forum migration.
If I'm either underplaying Marco/Steve's involvement, or overestimating how much work was actually involved for Nickthen apologies, but I just wanted to comment publicly on what a massive improvement there has been in forum responsiveness.
Well done to all concerned!

Yeah, thanks chaps.
Things are generally pretty whizzy now - I've had a few slow down moments, but nothing like the 2 minute responses I've had in fairly recent (pre host change) times.

Hi Guys,
I've been a bit busy of late, so have not had the chance to congratulate you all, and Nick in particular, for the improvements gained through the forum migration.
Things are nice and snappy now.
Well done to all!
Regards
Barry
