    fat controller - thanks for your detailed post.

    I have already cleared caches, don't normally get cookies (since I have installed ghostery) and don't have temporary files. (I do have cc cleaner but am not sure how to use it and what the drawbacks of doing so are). From what I have read about defragging, it makes next to no difference.

    I access this site via a bookmark so this rules out the DNS issue doesn't it? Bear in mind that also pamsdish, sheal and anthony rogers have all suddenly experienced problems with lagging here (see posts above). Hence it does seem site related... [​IMG]

    Who are your ISP's (Internet Service Providers), as a few people I know of, have been having issues with certain ISP's recently to the point of having no internet access, ans this was people at different locations in the UK

      I have good internet access and no problems with lagging at any other site, which is why I think it is something related here. Is there anything that can be checked/looked into here, just by way of verification?
      3 other members are also experiencing difficulties (as mentioned in my previous post).

      I've just looked into the server logs and there appear to be no issues.

      It would be interesting to know who all of your ISP's are though.

      Could I suggest removing the bookmark, and then re-bookmark the site, just to see if that makes any difference, you never know.

        I have just tried the bookmark suggestion, i.e. deleting it and then re-bookmarking it. Same situation re. lagging - sometimes it just goes to a white screen now!

              Hi Wiseowl,

              I can't take a photo,. What I've got is the white page you have with a green bit at the top which has Gardeners Corner witten in white and a sun.
