I don't know about other parts of the world but the Caedes server over here on occasion is pathetically slow..I'm on a 152 Mbp LAN and on quite a few occasions I may as well be using a 28,000 bps Modem..Pictures slow to load and comments sometimes take forever..It's not a one off either..It's been happening for months now...R.
Waited 4 minutes for a page to turn on here!...As Richie says...the UK server needs to be looked at...This happens regularly, and 'ONLY' on the Caedes site..it doesn't happen on any other! .. .. .. We use 3 laptops..all are the same!
We pay for a service, but that service does not offer!

And it might be possible, as well, that there was, in fact, server maintenance being run by the co-location facility that hosts the Caedes server and/or the site here itself.
Though, typically.. one would be met by the page stating just that on the note of the latter ("Please be patient while the gremlins do their work").
