Genes what do you mean by 'this afternoon'? GMT, Canada, USA, Australia, NZ, South Africa, somewhere else?

I agree, if GR are going to use times, they should specify GMT, not this afternoon, yesterday, today.
I'm in Canada and I often respond to something that has just been posted but it says yesterday because it was posted after midnight in England. However it's still only early evening here.

The message was posted by GR at 16.50 british time, which to my mind is a bit late to specify 'afternoon' here - it's going into evening by then.

As it happens, I have noticed no disruption since then, so don't really know what they're going on about!

Very 'wishy-washy' to my mind!

As far as I can saw the changes (new descriptions show under the main green headings "Homepage" etc at top of screen when you hover cursor over them) happened at about the same time as the notice was published by Genes this afternoon GB time. Jx
