The station looks like Adisham. I took a train there to Hydraquip next door to purchase some hose fittings. I seem to recall a home-made bomb being set off in the phone box there a few years back.

... I also think that with the high number of "guests" regularly logged into a fairly inactive website, (currently 13), the site is being mined by BOTs.

I do wish Stuart well. He had been asking for Admin support a while ago because he had a lot going on.
https://kenthistoryforum.com/index.php?topic=845.0

Sadly, with the best will in the world to carry on the old Kyn's site's function on t'interweb, this site really just primarily provided a new home for Guess the place.

I do pop in to monitor GTP with a view to carrying on playing.
I know the answer to the current GTP, but it is a commercially available print rather than a personal photo. I will leave it for others to guess this one.
I also need to get out more and take some GTP images to contribute.

I'm happy to carry on, but my access to the forum is intermittent. This morning, I went straight into the forum with no warnings and a normal screen layout. Other times, I can't get in at all or just get the blue text version. It's quite frustrating.

That was my thoughts also regards the certification. Do hope all is well with the administrator.

Are we happy to continue with this GTP without any personal details required?

I am no expert, but looks like the SSL certificate has expired and needs renewed, which needs done by site administration (Stuart).

I recommend that nobody posts any private or personal or intimate information on the site... (not that you should even if the certificate was in place).

No reply from Stuart so far.  He usually responds quite promptly.  I hope he's ok.

Same with myself Jonnie Walker. Though sometimes I only get a response of it being an 'Unsecure Site'  :(

Not sure if anyone will get this.  I've emailed Stuart asking him what the state of play is with the forum as I couldn't access it at first today and then when I did, it had gone to text only.

Regards

John

Sorry to both, but still having problems logging on.

It is not Minster (Jonnie Walker), and is very much in use (Beachbum). Definitely mainline and falls on a coastal bound route

OK, here we go. Not too difficult as a starter, especially if you know your train stations!  ;)

Something has changed - I got straight in just now.  I hope others see it and join back in.

If you have one ready CAT, why not put it up and see how it goes?

All is looking very much improved for me at the moment (fingers crossed), so maybe we could be getting back to normal transmissions?
