Hi All

I am now running Electrum 2.70 and went to do a funds transfer today, the first in over a month, only to be greeted by this error message    .  Reading through other similar issues on the forum, I have tried creating a new wallet, using my original seed phrase, which is apparently 'Seed type: old' but the process just seems to hang  .

Any suggestions on how I might be able to again transfer funds from my wallet?

Thanks in advance
