Thanks @MrTwingo, though having to go through a menu for every tap makes it quite unusable

Thanks @Mr Twingo

For the last couple of days I've had to use Safari to get in, but this evening I was able to over-ride the warning messages and get in with Firefox so some progress has been made.

Thanks @Mr Twingo  I’d been fine and then just now got the warning on Safari but have over ridden it.

  I feel your frustration!

I hope I can resolve the issue today. Fingers crossed.

[Mr Twingo]

Apologies for the Duke of York* experience over the past few days.

The problem arose from a faulty SSL certificate. This is the code that tells your browser that the website is secure and trusted. There was only a minor error in the certificate – an incorrect date, I believe – but it was enough for Firefox to have a bit of a tantrum.

In trying to resolve this, last night I managed to lose the 'private key' needed to unlock the certificate, which is why the site suddenly appeared to be insecure for everyone, not just Firefox users.

A new certificate and key have now been issued, and everything seems to be back to normal.

* Duke of York – a term I have just coined to describe a website that is neither up nor down.

Thank you @Mr Twingo  for sorting it. You're a star. 
 I didn't realise what a 'fix' TSP gave me until I couldn't get on!!

Thank you @Mr Twingo!

Many thanks Mr. Twingo for sorting all of this out - TSP means so much to us all and we are rather lost when it goes down.  We appreciate that you have a normal day to day job as well and that you fix TSP when you can, and for this I am sure we are all very grateful.  Now have a relaxing weekend if that is allowed.

Thank you @Mr Twingo for keeping the site up and running. I feel a bit lost without it.
