Folks, I've removed the Chat service as it no one really uses it anymore and it is slowing down the site. If folks are really fussed I could bring back but rather not on the homepage (e.g. I could make a link to s epcific dedicated chat page from the homepage) and only on the condition that those that ask for it promise to use it . Let us know how fussed you are? Maybe try using the forum more (just reintroduced).. As an aside. I have a survey / poll going on the homepage to share what changes and improvements you would like to make with the site. But please feel free to also add here?

Link to survey poll is here Big thanks if you can spare a mo..
