Hi Nichola, I haven't been able to do any searches since last night either! Tried again about 5mins ago, still down. Have e-mailed them, just incase they are unaware of any problem. Debbie

Keep trying - it seems to go in fits and starts. I suppose it must just be very busy, or they are updating. VERY frustrating though!!! Maz. XX

It happened right in the middle of my searching last night!! I'd found a few details at around 8pm, when it suddenly said 'service not available'; I thought maybe it was very busy - which happens sometimes - and tried later but still no luck. I wish they'd put up a more detailed reason! But at least you know it's the site and not your pc! Mandy :))
