Anyone else have a problem... it just stops and will not let you click on anything. When you do, it takes ages to load the page. Almost (but not quite) unusable. I have tried many time recently and same problem.

I am using the competitors now, which seem to work ok, so cannot be my connection (although I live in the sticks with not great broadband speed).

    Been fine for me, check your broadband speed http://www.speedtest.net/
    Wiggle uses a lot of graphics, if your broadband is low they will take a while to load.

    If you have another browser on your machine try that aswell.

    At work myself, boss does not come in on Sat. It can be expensive with nothing to do but buy things I cant afford and dont need.
