A record month

Still two days to go until the end of the month, and we’ve already had more visitors this month than any other since the forum was launched. So far, there have been 872 unique visitors to the site in July.

Keep up the good work.

We’re back …

The forum is restored!

I’ll try to keep it up and running but I don’t yet fully understand the reasons for the outage. Please bear with me if we have further problems.

Welcome back.

Service outage

Apologies for the current service outage. If you’re reading this, you’ll know I’ve restored service on this part of the site, but I still need to do some more work to get the forum back online. In the mean time, all I can say is, “normal service will be resumed as soon as possible”.

Thanks for your patience.

Happy Saint David’s day

Well, a big “thank you” to those of you who have helped me test this site and check that it’s fit for purpose. Since you all seem to be happy with it, let’s see what everyone else thinks. I’ll make it public in just a few mintues.

Get chatting!

Welcome to ferndale-wales.co.uk

Welcome back to ferndale-wales.co.uk! As one who mourned the passing of the old ferndale-wales.co.uk site, I thought I’d try to resurrect at least a discussion forum like the one that was so popular on the old site.

I’ll be forever in the debt of the old site’s forum for putting me in touch with a second cousin from Ferndale, and for allowing me to discover the location of the Bristol Tump which my mother and father often told me about when I was young.

So, to begin with at least, I’ll use this site to host the new Ferndale Wales discussion forum to see if we can get the chat going again.

I have no previous experience of running a site like this so bear with me. As I gain experience, I may fine tune a few things but I aim to keep the site running.
