We're looking for a new set of hampsters to power the servers. The old ones are getting lazy and entitled.
Depending on what time you were posting, you might have come up against some of the automated processes that run in the background at TFL.
Or, it could have been something else entirely. I had problems getting to a number of websites that I use on a regular basis. Very slow or no load times, while others, such as TFL, loaded and operated just fine. My guess is that it was a problem somewhere down the line.
Or, it could have been gnomes getting loose in the CPU again. We keep tenting the place, but they keep creeping back in.
