So you can't access their email browser at present. The email system is still working so if you use an external email browser to access VM emails that's still working.
Seems to be back working now 
Man driving down the M11 in his car when it runs out of fuel. So he gets his electric scooter out of the car and goes back on the motorway in the wrong direction to get to a filling station. Gets off the scooter and runs across 4 lanes of the motorway to get to the filling station.
The polce aren't impressed - "court awaits" that man.

Good morning everyone it's a lovely clear morning so hopefully we might get some sunshine today. I have the number blocked on those Amazon scam calls so the phone doesn't ring. It's blocked on the downstairs phone so doesn't show up but still shows up on the bedroom phone so I can see they are still trying to phone me.
Enjoy your day everyone 
Good morning everyone
Quite sunny here and expected to be a warm day. Tomorrow is forecast to be a hot day - 31° - but just for the one day.
The mystery of where the giant sarsen stones at Stonehenge came from has finally been solved. An area about 15 miles north of Stonehenge near Marlborough:

It's not that surprising as so much of the ordering is done online now and it must be expensive to produce those catalogues. All Argos stores will have digital screens by January for customers in stores to use.
I still get Viking Direct catalogues sent to me. That's nearly 400 pages long. That's stationery, office equipment and furniture. That's for business customers such as myself and I do get things from them.

I guess, as you say, itâs not that surprising. Nevertheless still sad...
They did an interview with a man on the radio who has all the Argos catalogues
Two and half filing cabinets full

Sounds as if he's a hoarder and keeps everything. I suppose that if he has the very first catalogue they printed that it could have some interest to a heritage museum

Such as the Museum of Brands. It's now in London but used to be in Gloucester.

Rub it in Thomas Shafernaker and John Kettley 
We've been stuck with Sean on STV and a complete wash out 
Hope all are well as always and/or are well on the way. Take care - and observe how complacent they all are
Good evening all
Weâve had a rainy day.
lol at Moonie and El, our weathermen
My late MiLâs claim to fame was, she almost knocked down the weatherman Michael Fish when she was in London. TBH, she was the worldâs worst driver and it was an absolute miracle she never knocked down anyone.
Velvet, do you remember when PB was a tiny toddler and she loved Sean Batty? I reminded her of it recently and she looked at me like I was mad. Good to know her taste has improved as she has gotten older.ð
Hope youâve all had a good day
Goodnight and sweet dreams, Moonie, Velvet and Ros
Hug for any night owls
Sweet Dreams Yogi and PB
Ask her about I'm John McKay tomorrow Yogi

Bless her

Good morning everyone it's a lovely cool morning after a slightly uncomfortable night. My own fault I should have left the ceiling fan on but I thought it was cooling off.
Enjoy your day everyone and stay in the shade
