Ok, so I know what caused this. Some very dramatic events for Jaime, everyone is all ok, but very lucky.

Not going to say more, I'll let him confirm.

The old dear next door was put in charge of feeding the Hamster whilst Mr and Mrs TB were on Holibobs. Unfortunately she forgot where they had left the hamster food. Rather than letting it starve, she felt it best to get some cheapy horsemeatcat food from Lidl, which gave the hamster wind. This, in turn caused the plug to fall  out of the Hamster, shorting out against the cage causing a barbeque... :-X

My guess is the Server/s overheated due to a lack of cooling (given the weather is a tad warm too!) and set fire to the spare room curtains ??? That scared the cat, who promptly jumped out of the open bedroom window, bounced off the garage roof, dented the bonnet of the Silver Bullet and sumersaulted onto the well stocked garden barbecue which badly startled Tb & Mrs Cakey who were standing next to it eagerly contemplating their almost done Horse burgers. The cat then shot straight into the air with its arse on fire clutching one of said burgers and was promptly dropkicked into the ornamental fountain by an incandescent TB after Mrs Cakey informed him it was his burger the bugger had burgled! :D
Am I close? ;D

I must admit, I never knew hamster flatulence could be so lethal.

I know he was only trying to keep the forum up, but feeding the poor thing that left over Naga Chicken seems to have been the last straw. :(

Where TB keeps his old non-dipping Miggy rear view mirror above the server, something hung from it was fluttering in the breeze when the cord broke. It dropped into the server, jammed the CPU fan making it overheat and shutdown.  ::)

Sorry for the extended outage yesterday. An incident caused power loss at 6:36am, and the UPS finially died at 7:17am.  When we could get the trips mid afternoon, they would trip within a few minutes.  As soon as the power was stablised, and the earths and neutrals isolated along with live, we were able to bring up OOF again.

Thanks for getting it all back up and running again. I was bereft at the time, as I was just starting some work requiring access to OOF. What exactly happened Jaime? (Preferably in non-tech speak for us lesser mortals) ??? ??? ???
