Avoid upsetting ugly, lardarsed Russians?

Chicken Yoghurt » Public Service Announcement
Tim Ireland’s Bloggerheads site is currently down after his webhost pulled the plug. You can thank the latest Russian (that should be Uzbek) billionaire to reach the UK. The details will come out in due course.
Tim’s currently also without email so if anyone needs to get hold of him, I’m happy to be the go-between and pass on any message by phone. My email address is at the top of the page.
This also means that the family of websites that Tim and Clive (whose site -The UK Today - is also down) look after are also currently AWOL. So if you’re missing the online presences of Craig Murray, Bob Piper or Boris Johnson, now you know why they’ve gone.
Tim and Clive are now looking for a new web home for themselves and the rest and are hoping to be back within 48 hours. If any sympathetic souls would help spread the word, it would be most appreciated.
I’d like to know who the webhost was. My guess is it wasn’t based in the US.
UPDATE: It was Fasthosts: “The UK’s Number 1 web host” (sic)
Wouldn’t touch ‘em with a bargepole.
