Exactly the same - the Wild About Britain log comes up almost instantly but the rest can take several seconds. Been like that for a few days now.

Re: Is WAB running very slowly or is it my PC

Seems to be a bit better for me today but still quite slow, I suppose it is just the traffic.

Re: Is WAB running very slowly or is it my PC

It was running very slowly for about 15 minutes before and after I logged on, and when I tried to load the website up at about 4, it took five minutes before my green bar started progessing!!
