A victim of own success – Site Load Speed

August 18th, 2010

Due to the ever growing demand from single farmers turning to Kissinggates.com - we have experienced heavy server usage over the past month or two. As soon as we found out the load speed of our site was underperforming we have been working to resolve this issue and have upgraded and shifted our hosting to a new system to sort this issue.

We have now resolved this and built in redundancy and spare capacity to allow us to continue to give you the best possible service in the quickest way possible no matter how much we grow.

Also the other good news is we are currently working on a new design which should further enhance the Kissinggates.com service and load speed to match our new look dating site!

Any issues just drop us a note at – james@ruraldating.co.uk

On top of this the team had to drive the distance between mountains and negotiate sheep, highland cattle, fog / rain and cramp!

The £200 donated will go to Marie Curie Cancer Care, who provide high quality nursing to cancer patients.

This weeks featured member is Richard from Befordshire!

Richard (49) Bedfordshire

Read more about Richard below; (he is looking for Country Friends)

Very friendly, considerate, very kind hearted guy, loads of good manners, a big romantic (candles the lot… in the bathroom) well educated and knows how to treat a lady and make her feel very special. Very honest and also very genuine, not a heart breaker even though mine has been broken a few times in the past. Think I would describe myself as very loving and very tactile who adores everything about kissing and cuddling. Quite solvent but things can get quite busy as I don’t have a nine to five mundane job ! Likes to travel, done some but would like to do a whole lot more with the right lady. Loves – there are many but important ones, walking in the countryside or along a secluded beech, fresh air,wind in the hair and rain in the face but ‘not’ all the time, good health,good friends,socialising, old properties with character, crackling fires, fine wine, good food and ………. well, somebody to share it all with actually. Are you out there ? I hope so as it’s a bit tough being on my own !! O’h, and just one other thing – I won’t reply unless you have a current image of yourself attached to your profile. Not shallow just me not wanting to look at a blank canvas – have had enough of that .

If you like the look of Richard as  a Countryside Dating match why not register for free  and send him a message. Good luck.
