At this moment the server migration (upgrade) is scheduled for Tuesday morning 21st December at 1:00 GMT (London time). I selected this time because the majority of our users are in the EU and UK time zones. During the migration the site will be down and images will not show in the posts on Talk Morgan or elsewhere.
In theory the migration itself will take very little time but it will take time for the new address to be propagated throughout the various DNS (Domain Name Servers). It is expected to be very quick in the USA and probably the UK and will then spread to other DNSs.
For those who are not familiar with the term DNS it is the system which resolves the easily human understood domain name, such as tm-img.com, into a series of numbers, the IP (Internet Protocol) address that computers need to communicate.
It is a bit like changing house and having to notify all the major post-offices in the world of your new address. 😂
In any case I would hope that everyone can once again get access by breakfast time Tuesday.
All the best
Peter

Thanks OZ. No we are in fine condition financially. I'll take the opportunity the thank all those who have contributed. Say hi to the North Coast for me. I spent many years there both as a resident and/or travelling up and down the Pacific Highway. Cheers Peter

The server migration has been completed as requested and the DNS updated. Everything seems to be working as normal as at 8:00 GMT.
All the best for a great Christmas and a better New Year.
Peter
