that's it I give up.

Sue's thread would always start with the header about blatant discrimination. Now on the front page of chat it shows as:
"Posted twice for some strange reason:-))"

which Sue put up an hour ago.

If I could nail a hoarding over it I would.

Persey and Berona,

Maybe we should all surrender to the Help Clinic - but they may say we are beyond help - what then?

What I fail to understand is this thread opens on page one when it started but later when you try to find the page before the one we are on you have to turn yourself inside out first it won't budge and then it goes backwards and this page becomes page one.

I think they have got a bleedin' magician working for them.
It's all done with mirrors.
I looked in at the health clinic - seems to me the waiting room is quite full.
edit oops help clinic doh... see what it has done it has affected my health now.

How did Lanto enjoy his walk and do you feel the better for it as well?

I see you have voted Berona - your name was up in lights again.

I haven't even tried to click on Help Clinic, Tec......I tried to venture around yesterday and got caught up with a lot of blank pages. To-day, I'm not trying anything until everyone can tell me that it's working OK.

I just got blank looks at the clinic.

Persey, Maybe they're hoping we'll all get fed up and go away.

It does all seem a bit inside out - upside down - a bit like trying to sort the newspaper out after the wind has blown it away, or the puppy's had it.

Maybe someone at GR is having a breakdown?

Berona Report 19 Nov 2010 23:12

Yes Perse - I checked last thing last night and the vote hadn't started - then, first thing this morning, they were waiting for me! Must check to see what I need to order.

Well I am off to lunch now - a much less daunting project.

Take care Berona -

Must be near your bedtime Tec according to my own clock.

Nite nite the rest of the Brits that appear to have done a mass evacuation in protest.

Enjoy your day at the market Sue
Catch you later Carole ~~~~~~~~~to others including our Janet who will really be bamboozled when she comes back on here and find the thread renamed.

Persey ( shakes out the pages and gives them to the puppy)

Enjoy your day, hope the sun shines on you today.

Good night Tec, sorry I didn't return earlier but I have been busy ironing washed woolie's that I spun to fast doh, forgot to alter the spin speed on machine. I have also been watching children in need and considering we are in a recession they are doing very well.

Good night any brit's still around ( Sandie ) will still be lurking lol

I agree the format seems a bit upside down, that's why I've posted twice on a few threads.I'd prefer to see the times of postings.. not I hr ago etc.. means I've got to get my poor brain into a higher gear .lol Can get used to it tho. Hope the weather is not too bad with you now, foggy and miserable here :(

Haven't had time to read right thro the thread had a pm and e.mail to answer and sorting out the plumber re fitting out bathroom !
Hope everyone is well:)

Good Evening/Morning Everyone,
Greetings from the cave.-----------------7-25pm Saturday.

Hope you got your wrinkly woolies sorted out Diane,

Sandie or Parkling Andie, It's been a nice sunny day here, a bit cold, with a stiff Easterly wind, but I did several odd jobs around the house, the sort of thing I normally run past because I'm too busy doing other things.

Persey - When you look in you will notice that those of us who were brave enough to look in at the "Help Clinic" have been refferred to the Asylum for a second opinion. I have saved you a place, at the bar.

Tec.

Hi folks~~

I 've had a fiddle around and think I've got my name back:)

Hope everyone is well, been foggy and cold all day here:(

What I don't like with this new format is that the time of the post doesn't show up, and your post shows at the bottom of the page...ugh.

Our plumber has finished,and bathroom looks fab, hubby now has to finish the flooring, and we have to clean up the dust that is everywhere, so have given it a once over..will need another going over properly when the floor is laid:) Dau is hoovering like mad as I speak, but when hubby does the floor tomorrow it will be back to square one ..dust wise !

Back in a bit going to see what's on tele.:)

Sandie.x .......7.46pm Sat

Edit...Yeess I have my name:))

Hello ladies - I came on a little earlier and we had 1382 pages. Now we're down to 1381. Or maybe I'm going crazy - that's highly likely.

Last minute babysitting last night. The boys were telling us 'knock knock' jokes with the silliest answers. They don't quite get it but they had us in stitches because they couldn't stop laughing at each other:-))

Another glorious sunny morning. It was a beautiful spring day yesterday and very pleasant at the markets as they were down by the lake. I bought a child sized cane chair for $5 - all it needs is a good clean. I thought it would look nice on the verandah.

Good evening to you, Sandie and Amanda. Nice to be able to talk to you both. Hope you and yours are all well. A cuddle for Bella too.
Where are the others? All out living it up on a Saturday night?

I can't say that I like the idea of no GMT. When I see 'One hour ago' I find myself calculating what time it is here, then deducting eleven hours to know what time it is over there - to know whether to expect that you might be thinking of going to bed or whether it is too early for that.

No Aussies/Kiwis yet? Come on, it's a lovely day here. Rise and shine!!
