problems with UKshags.com?

Is it only me or are there other people having problems with browsing ukshags.com? I can only open the main page, Dibble's film of the week and the contact page - all the others say "javascript;" in the status bar and do nothing when I click them. Is anybody else having this problem?

there's nothing wrong with the links per se. it's simply that there's nothing for them to link to, yet.

Yes Darren, Exactly that was happening to me too. Puzzled me. Surely they can put a java popup which says "not yet made" or something like that.

PR will answer your question Darren.

Carrying out basic site development in public always seems odd
to me,I have to say.
I know PR cites "work overload",and I'm sure that's right, but the reasons are pretty academic to joe punter.
A slowburner is more likely to piss people off than fill them
with anticipation.He may just give it up as stillborn.
Hit the ground running and inspire a bit of confidence I'd have
thought.

Yup - a perusal of this forum will show that ukshags.com's lack of readiness has popped up a few times before.
Officer Dibble's offering is the Internet equivalent of a Ford Fiesta propped up on bricks. It looks something like it, but it's not really what you need.

Only reason I'm defending the Officer, is cause I've been nicked enough without him putting the cuffs on me.
Anyway, best move is to order a catalogue; suck it and see.

Fair comment, Marcus.
For all I know which is, I admit, not a lot, the said catalogue might be a Rolls Royce among lesser fare. Getting me all hot and bothered over my cornflakes due to the gorgeous, splendiforous beauties adorning said Dibble's catalogue.
But let's just say a website that has left a number of punters perplexed, is not the best thing for marketing quality.
And isnt that what the honourable Officer Dibble is about?
I'll say no more. Partly because I know no more and partly because I too would prefer to avoid the knock on the door from the size twelves.

Fucking A, David.
Beware a knock from OD's troops clutching a truncheon in one hand (courtesy of Autumn) and a catalogue in the other.

Please dont mention Autumn's truncheon or I will have to drink even more Lagavulin in order to get to sleep. Mmm what I could do with Autumn and her truncheon.

Just before you rest your weary bones, think of what Autumn could do with YOUR truncheon.
Now try and sleep.
