Uptime

Hm. The outage over the weekend may have been caused by a massive outage in BT's Manchester centre, which it seems is rather a large single point of failure.

is it bad that I didn't notice?

How about a nice game of "imaginary crescent"?

I was myself substantially surprised to find the machines inaccessible and then, upon 'fixing' it, not find a mention on MCiOS.

[Nik] I think it's known as 'polite outage' - much like a silent fart.

nights

oh, but that we should go for a whole day without a fart joke!
