Good morning peevers.

Weatherwise it's quiet now but the UK has had what is apparently the worst September storm for thirty years with very bad flooding in parts of the Country.

I just logged in to CD and the computer was running very slowly. Mrs J has her new iPad linked in doing some updates and that must be affecting things.

Other things have the same effect and no doubt our techy members know what these are. All I know is that sometimes the computer can be a pain.

So with that in mind, the POTD is;

The computer going on a Go Slow.

I've experienced the slowness the last 3 nights or so after midnight CST .. Timing out time after time. Fairly convinced it's CD's Servers.

I have also experienced problems on CD the last few nights.

Glad to find out it is not my computer.

You can conduct a quick WiFi speed test to check connection speed and rule out computer "slowness" here: Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test

Agree this has been a slow night. It takes forever to go from thread to thread.

Slowness on mine is usually my internet company. Whatever the cause, it's aggravating.

Yep, CD has been running sloooooooooow for me too. Takes a while to swap and update pages.

It isn't just you Jezer, it's picking on all of us so... "Put the hammer down and step away from the computer! It's not it's fault"

I think we all know my patience with computers -- around zero.

My old laptop was slower than all get out and very frustrating. Now only problem is when a sites server is slow. Like others I've noticed CD's has been the last couple of days.
