You'll see the 'forum statistics' at the bottom of the page when you click the 'Main Page'. It shows the number of guests and members and although we haven't reached the number 42 yet, we've still got about 8 minutes left. I'm also hopeful that with all the activity we've had, perhaps the forum server was unable to keep up!
I think there must be too many GNs nomading at the moment. Too busy seeing this wonderful country to log on today. Pity some of us have to be home ready for work tomorrow.
