Tried to log in last night but kept getting the message: unable to connect to server.

What am I doing wrong, other than the obvious.

Yes, we didnt know about it either, but will maybe catch up on it next time. that is if the chat page allows entry. It has been pretty flaky in general.

DreadWharf must have eaten it.

I was going post an extract of the chat log, but in hindsight, you had to be there.

Was a great night!

I read the logs when i came home from caching after leaveing just before the event! Was hilarious!
Its now a great feeling of community between the regulars and we are looking for new faces every day! Its the perfect place for a chat or a game of hangman (thanks to the bot) or hard nuts talking about caching.
As the new topic in the chat room suggests we will be having trivia nights every Sunday, Wednesday and Friday.
Hope to see you all there soon.. P.S. if you have a computer at work i sugegst getting an IRC client and sitting yourself on the channel and putting in a word or two as the day goes on. There is always someone else in there these days :)
