Currently it's working at it's normal speed for me. That's still not ultra fast but on Saturday morning for about an hour I was getting the kind of speed Barney is complaining about where even refreshing the page was taking a good minute or so. It lasted a couple of hours then went back to normal.
Nothing to do with computer or network , Just so happens to be a repsol at the top of the page , Must be reason forums slow and goes off every now and again
