It's a bonus to enjoy your work.

 

I'm going to wish everyone goodnight and sweet dreams just now, in case I don't get the chance later.

 

I am still here for the moment though.

Haha noooooo! I can't sing at all lol I'd be the Scott mills of strictly come singing
I think I'm great in the car though

Stay strong, no cake now = more delicious cake at christmas! My colleague brought me cake today and told me to start my diet tomorrow, I refused it even though I felt a bit mean. I had previously told her though...

Same here, I'm staying for now but wishing you all sweet dreams

lol @ the Scott Mills of Strictly Come Singing. 

Mr Yogi is always singing but he never knows the right words and makes them up. Sometimes he puts on headphones to listen to music and sings along - it always reminds me of Julia Roberts' character screeching singing in the bath in Pretty Woman.

 

Well done on resisting the cake, that takes willpower.

I'm stubborn yogi it was really good cake though

Lol I liked pretty woman, chick flicks are my favourite

I'm nodding yogi, so will sign off before I get kicked off lol
See you tomorrow x

Pretty Woman is one of my favourite chick flicks, Dirty Dancing is another one.

Even Mr Yogi now knows that "nobody puts Baby in a corner"

Good morning everyone.

A chilly but dry start to the day.

Good to see the forum is working again, following last night's down time.

Have a good day, everyone.((hug)) 

Good morning all
Baton down the hatches- it's raining, cold & windy here this morning!

I'm glad the forum is back to business, and thank you to Lori & co. For keeping us maintained

Good morning everyone

 

Grey and damp here with rain still forecast for the first half of the day.

 

The update yesterday evening was about polls made on the forum which are now called surveys. I have raised a couple of fundamental questions with Lori as at present it seems that we cannot create any new ones.

The opening questions are listed under surveys with the results. Any comments made are shown on the original thread. The original thread has a link to the survey questions. But the survey questions don't seem to have a link to comments, just show the numer of comments made.

 

I'll let you know in due course what Lori says but as things are ate present polls/surveys are unusable.

 

Good morning everyone, cloudy but dry here, looks like all our yesterday's weather went your way Summer.

 

I haven't noticed any polls on here for ages EL, it didn't occur to me until you mentioned it.

 

I think there might be one more cut due on my lawns, but of course they are very vigorous after all the treatments they have had this year.

 

Enjoy your day everyone

Squiggle, although there aren't many polls here people still do them There were about 38 done over the last 12 months so there will be some who are unhappy if we can't do them any more.

 

I hope there's a dry spell if your grasss does need to be cut again.

I always tend to join in if there's a poll, don't know why, it's just too tempting.

I love a good poll, I too forget about them so I'd love to see a poll revival happen!

I love a good poll, I too forget about them so I'd love to see a poll revival happen!

 

I agree with you, I also love a good poll.

I haven't heard back from Lori yet on polls but it's too early for her. I know there is a setting which administrators can use which enables polls to be done and I'm hoping that it's just a metter of turning it on rather than a policy not to allow polls.

 

Skylark says she's waiting on a new modem because hers had a fault, she'll be back with us as soon as it arrives

Summer, thanks for letting us know about Skylark's modem. I hope it works better than the previoous one. She said that she had been told it took up to 10 days for it to be operating at full speed which seemed odd to me. A few hours maybe, but 10 days ?

 

 I hope it is delivered quickly.

I see that in yesterday's forum update it is now possible to see threads and dialogs in printer friendly format so that it's possible to print them off.

 

Before any of you think of printing off this entire thread, make sure you have a lot of paper and ink cartridges. At a rough estimate you would need about 4,500 sheets of paper

 I don't think I'll bother!

Good afternoon, Velvet.

 

 How is The Boss doing, Velvet? I hope she is keeping well?

That's what I was hoping to hear. 

Lori has come back re the polls/surveys and the points I raised are being considered but no definitive answers yet.

 

Thanks for the update, El.

Oh well, most of us didn't notice there were none, so I suppose if we get some it will be a bonus

 True

I'm here but in The Apprentice thread.

Toddling off to bed now. Goodnight and sweet dreams, Velvet and Summer.

Moonie, I hope you are around tomorrow and Skylark's new modem arrives soon.

*night owls* sorry to have just missed you yogi, I just don't know where the day has gone to! Sweet dreams and I'll catch up with you tomorrow

I'm in pain! Lol I went to an exercise class where my instructor decided to try out some new stuff on us, which was challenging enough anyway but I wasn't there last week so I'm more out of shape. I usually get delayed muscle ache so if I ache now then I'm going to really feel it tomorrow

Lets all start a poll each when they return, and see who can come up with the most unexpected subject!

Leaving goodnight hugs for all

Good morning everyone.

Weather is dry, with some cloud.

Summer, I hope your muscles don't ache too much today. 

I saw your post in the Darnie Thread about your mum having a chest infection. Is she feeling any better?

Have a good day everyone.

 

Good morning everyone

 

A mix of cloud and blue sky here at present but forecast to become wet by the afternoon.

 

Summer, I hope you aren't too achy this morning and that your mother is better

Good morning it looks dry and bright out this morning
I hope you all slept well

Thanks for your good wishes, my back muscles know they've been worked this morning, and bramble is currently stretched out horizontally across 3/4 my bed which is squishing me!
I am fine though

My mum's chest infection wasn't clearing so they gave her a course of antibiotics which she then reacted badly too. She's suffering from water retention and her legs have puffed up something terrible.
She's on water tablets now and is awaiting the results of a chest x-ray.
She sounded perkier yesterday but isn't feeling better yet

That sounds very uncomfortable for your mum. I hope the new tablets work quickly and she feels better soon.

Summer, your poor mother, I hope she gets better quickly

Good morning everyone, dry here, at the moment.

 

Your poor mum Summer, I hope she feels better soon.  Do they know what it was in the antibiotic that she reacted badly to? They need to note on her records that she isn't to be given that one again.  I hope your back muscles soon recover

 

I don't think I would dare to do a poll, although I am sure I have done one in the past.  Sometimes they can lead to heated discussions if people are on different sides, tin hat time

 

Enjoy your day everyone

I didn't mind the heated discussions in the old days but we are such a small, tight-knit community now, it can feel like bickering with best friends.

 

Off out with hubby to see the Christmas decs in the garden centre. See you later.

Afternoon Buddies

Just to let you know, a little late as per, not feeling all that good so will be away for a while longer. I hope all is well with you, my friends. Sweet, I hope your mum is better very quickly
Back soon
