The site has been very slow the last few days for me. Has anybody else experienced the same? If so, is it now faster for you? I’ve turned on caching in WordPress and it appears to have helped. Let me know what you are experiencing anyway.

Very slow loading for me at the moment.
I’m in Dublin on BT 3mb. I got nothing (‘waiting for..’) for about half a minute, then it loads fast enough once it kicks in.

Yeah, well slow loads making me think the site was down. Like even the title wouldn’t appear in the blue bar, also yesterday there was raw code poking out over the top banner that says nialler9.

your site has loaded proper quick for me no problem. i didn’t visit much last week, but yesterday and today it was fine.
i thought my site was loading super slow this week as well, and i also use wordpress. i don’t see how that would be related, since we are almost definitely on different servers and hosting companies. but maybe WP has to call some things from the WP servers? if so, that might explain why it seemed slow on both of our sites.
