Well hi everyone, i havent read back and wont incase i trigger something!
Hope you are well Summer x  Hi to Ros x
My nephews friend has had a look at my computer and says its basically old age, i know the feeling!   
Not in a position to get a new one at the moment, so hope it holds on for a while.  
 for all 

Yay, you're back in here.

Yay, Joyron is back, too.

My Granddaughter is off for a holiday with her other Gran, on Friday till Monday, at a holiday park. She will love it. I bought her a few things from Tesco , a nice swimsuit for £3 ! and a couple of tops. I wont know what to do with myself at the weekend as i usually have her!  My daughter says she is going to take to her bed and sleep 

Aww, she'll have a lovely time.

I know it will be strange without her, but you can use it to recharge your batteries, so you can be Supergran again when she comes back.

Well said Yogi, and a big welcome back for Skylark and Joyron

 

 And all thanks to

 

 

            

My computer has gone on a go slow, again, so if i dont post you will know why i have disappeared. 

Supergran !  i loved that programme !
Yes , thanks El x 

EL just a thought but could you please re-post your wonderful running vid for those who couldn't access that page?

 

Signing out now, good night everyone, I hope no-one gets seriously hurt tonight in the riots, its very worrying.

Goodnight Squiggle.

Goodnight squiggle, sleep well, and thanks for your help 

Haha I love that pic squiggle El, love all your cyclopaedia names Welcome back to skylark & joyron, hope you're both well Yogi, yes I believe it's September, you may get to meet grumpy summer by the end of that week hehe Sweet dreams to all in here see you tomorrow

Grumpy Summer. Nope, I don't believe you are ever grumpy.

Goodnight, see you tomorrow, Summer.

Signing out, son wants on 
Goodnight everyone xxx 

Goodnight Skylark, see you tomorrow.

Signing out for tonight, goodnight all.

Good morning everyone

At squiggle's suggestion, this is the clip I posted yesterday.

Good morning everyone. Weather is sunny this morning.

I'm glad you posted that vid again for Joyron and Skylark to see, El.

 

I hope this is a safe morning for you all and for all your loved ones.  I will deliberately not say it is a good morning because with the current problems this is not a good morning for anyone

 

I was pondering last night what the authorities could do, I really don't know, water cannon, tear gas, spray them with a dye so that they could be identified later?  I don't know what the answer is but I do know we have to find a way to stop and isolate these thugs and make them pay a high price for their terrorising and looting.

 

Sorry to be so downbeat, catch you later.

Squiggle.

Morning everyone.    As Squiggle says I won't add "good" to that!!  Such terrible things are happening and they must be stopped as soon as possible.

 

Glad to be back in our little thread.  I don't know why the page keeps going funny like that.  Don't suppose we will ever find out the reason.

 

It's much sunnier here today and the wind has dropped considerably.  Off to the shops.  Will speak to you all again later.  Love to everyone and their families.  Please stay safe wherever you are. 

Morning Squiggle Rightly so, it's shocking, disgraceful and sad, I hope the authorities can gain control of this frightful situation, and soon

Hi Summer, hope you don't have to work too hard today and manage to read a few pages of your book.

Hi Joyron, good to have you and Skylark back with us. Let's hope the glich with the last page doesn't reappear.

Hi yogi Just had a quiet hour- I uploaded 38 picture of pancakes into an album on my Facebook! Daft I know, but I found some beautiful creations on google, crepes appear to be very popular in Singapore! How's your morning going?

I have a suspicion that yesterday's problem was caused by me and Yogi copying me by posting the HTML code in the text of a reply. Although my Firefox browser doesn't have a problem, and it doesn't seem to cause me a problem when I look at the page using IE, it is possible that it causes Chrome a problem. I was just trying to explain something to Yogi and I'm sorry if that was the cause of the problem.

 

I am editing the text of the posts I made to delete the problem parts, rather than delete the post itself so we don't affect the number of posts, and if Yogi can do the same with her posts (posted yesterday at 11.12 and 12.13) , then it may clear up that problem.

 

Once we have both done that, can either Skylark or Joyron have a look at page 260 to see if it is now OK.

hi everyone x
No need to apologise El, these things happen. Page 260 is still stretched , but it doesnt really matter now as we are on a new one  xx
Thanks for posting the vid, El, my son was telling me about this man . He is such an inspiration, isnt he.  When we see whats been going on the last days and then someone like this who has achieved so much through sheer determination , it actually makes me feel angry that these young, fit healthy youths are hell bent on destroying peoples lives and property.
Going off before i get right on my soap box . Will be back later 

I've deleted those posts if Skylark or Joyron want to look at Page 260.

Sorry folks, it was all my fault.

I love pancakes, so many delicious things you can have with them.

Spent the morning catching up on some housework and ironing - pretty boring.

Going to get my hair cut later this afternoon.

EL and Yogi no way could you have anticipated what would be the outcome from those posts, simply one of those quirks that happen

No, it was all my fault

So, I'm not really a troublemaker?

Let's sit together on the naughty step.

Assuming that it was my and Yogi's posts which caused the problem, it is a bit scary to think that typing < followed by the eigth letter of the alphabet and a one followed by a > could have that effect.

 

I'm not about to try it out to see if that's right

Step away from the keyboard, El.

I think we will just blame Chrome anyway, as most of the posters who had problems seem to be with them (unless you know otherwise) and I don't know what on earth is going on with Chrome.  I did try it but it didn't seem any better than Firefox so I have stuck with that.

Afternoon everyone.    El Loro I just looked back at the last page and it's fine now.  As you say it's amazing what a few typed characters can do!!

 

I'm afraid to say I've had to stop watching the news as I find it really upsetting.  I feel so much for all those poor people who have had their lives turned upside down by a some mindless, greedy morons help bent on causing trouble and stealing as much as they possibly can.

 

I'm glad to know that all family members of my lovely buddies who could have been affected by this are okay.  Let's pray for a quiet night tonight and the return to some sort of order as soon as possible.  From what I've heard there are going to be an awful lot of police on the streets tonight.  My love to you all. 

Ooh hope you enjoy getting your hair done yogi I have to say these technical issues sound a little complicated, I'm quite relieved I use the iPhone app, it's very simple. Although, it doesn't always show video's, photos or links, I sometimes have to open my web browser to view those. Its been very quiet today, I've had to put my phone on charge, which shows how much I've been online today! Have any of you been to betty's tea rooms in Yorkshire? You may have heard of them.. Anyway, they also have a cookery school in Harrogate, I've spent time looking at their courses today, I really fancy going on one! I've decided to save £1 per day until I have enough to go I can put my first £1 tip in each day and I won't miss it, and in 23 weeks from now, I'll have enough- it'll be fun saving up Would any of you do a cookery course? Mr summer has and thoroughly enjoyed it

I have heard of Betty's Tea Rooms and would love to go.  Do they teach baking at the cookery course Summer or another type of cookery?  I think you will enjoy the course anyway and its something I would love to do.

Joyron, thanks for checking the last page, at least it confirms what was causing the problem. I agree with you about watching the news.

 

Bettys Cafe Tea Rooms are based in Harrogate - they also have 5 other tea rooms in Yorkshire and they also own Taylors of Harrogate, the tea and coffee people. It's a family owned business and nobody knows why the man who set up the business in 1919 called it Bettys.

 

Over 10 years ago I spent a fortnight working in Harrogate. Although I saw Bettys, as I was working I never got a chance to go in. Harrogate is a very attractive spa town, and is one of the more attractive places to drive into though parking can be a nightmare as it is a tourist town.

El! You didn't go to Bettys?!!!! You should have done it's exquisite! Squiggle, they do all sorts of cookery classes; meat, fish, breads, chocolate, desserts, chocolate deserts, spicy foods, foreign foods, winter food, summer food, dinner party food, one pot wonders. They even do courses about knife sharpening, courses for kids, and Christmas pudding courses! I'm particularly interested in a cake course, I'd enjoy that one. Mr summer would like to do the 2nd spice box course, and we're both interested in the Christmas pudding one for next year *starts saving pennies*
