From the Leeds page:
Quote ="SouthStander.com"Sorry that you are experiencing issues and we are aware of them and looking for solutions but you have to remember that the site is run and maintained by volunteers. The issues seem to be with our hosts on occasion and at times the site can be much faster.
Could we suggest that you try a couple of things;
1. Try a different browser if you can, Edge and Firefox (and I guess others) seem faster than Chrome.
2. While we are trying to solve the issues take an ad-free membership for a month or two (option in the banner at the top of the page).
We are in the process of a full site re-write but this takes a lot of resources, we are also looking at options to remove some adverts or at least speed up the loading. Without adverts or memberships then the site would not exist as our out of pocket expenses on hosting, software and insurance would mean that we would have to close the site down.
Please bear with us, we are working on improving the site.'"
