Correction, that got me to the page with the big M, but same story after that. how odd.

I suppose I could get into contact with them.

**Cayusedriver** · 14th August 09, 07:53 AM

It would certainly be very much appreciated.

**McMurdo** · 14th August 09, 07:59 AM

I sent them a message and invited them to take a look at this thread, after submitting it I got a message saying

Thank you for your feedback. A member of our team will be in touch shortly to deal with your enquiry.

Once they get back to me I'll let you know what they have to say.

McMurdo: really appreciate you taking the time to do that.

No problem at all, glad I could help here is what I sent:

I was asked to write you as several people on a forum I belong are having trouble getting to your webpage. For me and some others it seems fine but for others there are problems, there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to who can get the site and who can not, as members from Coatbridge Scotland, and Pennsylvania, USA to Kitchener Ontario Canada are all having problems. If you are interested the discussion can be found here

thanks Glen
i had the same issue a few weeks ago with the family tree DNA site and had to contact them within a few days the issue was sorted but they never knew about the outage until i sent them the info,
i guess if its affecting various folk around the world it might affect there business with some companies hopefully they'll get it sorted soon

The dark blue splash screen with the "M" should have 3 clickable areas: the M logo, the "Marton Mills" text block, and the word "enter" should all link to http://www.martonmills.com/.

It sounds like there may be a problem looking up that domain name from some locations. I show its name servers as:

ns1.tdserver.co.uk ns2.tdserver.co.uk

... but sure enough, I'm not getting an answer if I try to query for their addresses.

I am getting through, but it is highly likely that my desktop system has all the relevant addresses cached, or my local name servers do. It is a hosted site, so I don't think the IP address will help us.

You might try scotweb if you're researching a particular fabric.

Ken, that is the address Loach had given originally. It didn't even get me to the blue page with the big "M" on it. But getting there with the new url system, I got the same result when I hit "enter."
