Indeed welcome back UF.  We are a bit thin on the ground here these days.

Thanks for welcome, bit thin on the ground but still has a hell of a lot of info compared to other media stuff.

Unfortunately it also has a bad case of bit-rot, meaning that many of the older postings are more-or-less useless.  See, for example, https://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=5161.msg50355#msg50355

If there are missing recipes just let me know i have nearly every recipe from this site all saved.

That would be great, UF, but after all this time only Onions can updated the corrupted messages.  The one to which I sent the link is obviously corrupt, so if you have that archived and could send a copy to Onions he would be able to update the original.  Alternatively perhaps liaise with Yousef with a view to becoming a moderator, so that you can correct the corrupt messages yourself.  In the meantime, as soon as I spot more corrupt messages I will let you know.

Uncle, I tried to email both you and Phil when I thought the forum had completely vanished recently due to expired domain.  I used last known emails so not sure if either of you received them.  Good to see you back.  A while back I had all sorts of issues trying to log in, as you may recall.

Phil, I often look back over old threads that pop up in a particular search or when trying to go back to something I know has been discussed previously.  There are a lot of holes in many threads.  I seriously doubt anyone's ability to identify, let alone recover the lost / truncated posts.  When the site was "gone" most recently, I successfully used The Wayback Machine to view some aspects of the forum I was trying to use though, which was a relief at the time I needed access.

Good to see you again UF, and thanks for sending those recipes over, unfortunately I couldn't send a message back.
