NRH SERVER DOWN

Post by Muriel » Fri Oct 16, 2009 4:59 pm

Hello All

I dropped by NRH yesterday thinking I might while away a few hours with some research only to be told that their server was down. They said it was a fairly major problem that might take several days to solve. So, if anyone is thinking of going in the next week or so it's best to phone first. I have, of course, lost (no mislaid!) the piece of paper with the phone nos & opening times - perhaps AndrewP can oblige??

Thanks Andrew, they were sounding very gloomy when I went in on Thursday so I'm glad it's been sorted so quickly.
