It's alright. I don't need it until Monday now.

Sorry I switched the internet off yesterday.

Seriously showing your age with that... You need to be referencing RFC 2549 these days. I'm not a fan of the IPv6 version though RFC 6214 and think it will be years before it's adopted in full.

Old age comes to us all eventually.

This time however, I can see CUK and The Regist's main site, but not The Telegraph, Independent or various other .uk sites.

And the Guardian's web site is coming up in text only.

A search on El Reg gives me the following links from Friday, none of which I can currently access.

ASA probes Microsoft cloud reliability claims ? Channel Register
Office 365, Hotmail and SkyDrive hit by outage ? Channel Register

Anyone else having problems?

P.S. Note that I am in Europe.

Seems OK here. More likely to be whatever proxy or ISP you connect via.

Not noticed problems such as above, but CUK is slow today.
