    Well, the time has come ...... :(


    It is time to change the forum software over [​IMG] . Now I have never had to change the software over before, so don't know what is entailed in the changeover, but will keep everyone informed with updates within this thread.

    Downtime of GardenersCorner is going to happen, the timescale is unknown to me.

    There may be a few teething problems after the install, ie passwords 'sometimes' get lost in the migrate, so please make sure you have your password kept somewhere else as well.

    The software is purchased, so it is just a case of getting it installed, and hopefully to minimise any problems, I may be getting the Software makers to migrate it for me, which will cost more, but it will (hopefully) be done right first time, meaning less downtime.

    i know I have not been around as much recently, but believe me, I have been here, and also sorting out things for this year.

    Thanks for all your support

    Nathan.
