Thanks, I thought that sticky topic could be something a little risqué!

Dare I ask what a "sticky topic" is?

I had to laugh at my query regarding Martin having five little squares and me only having one. Did you wring your hands in exasperation at that? I think I will be keeping my head down and not shouting or reprimanding any one. We are all grown ups, says she, after asking why she didn't get as many squares as Martin!!!

What are the little coloured square shapes above our avatars? I only have one but Martin has five?

I have made mine smaller and not quite such a defiant stance. I now have to add the required number of wrinkles or life lines then I will replace it. By the way font size showing up beautifully.

Off topic but I emailed Teresa today about a TV drama called COBRA - it is a politics thing about a disaster. The chap playing the UK PM is Robert Carlyle, I think he was in Train Spotting. Anyway both Teresa and I thought he looks like Tony so I thought that I would tell her. He was more like Tony when he was acting in his younger days. I don't know whether she will come on here or even look at the website but I wanted to include her. She occasionally came on before. He has moved in to Hexham town now. I will give Alby Simpson a nudge. No reply from Ray Jordan yet

I use Edge, I was ages refusing to use it but I gave in. I like it. I used to use Firefox for years. I will go on Edge settings and see if I can make the font bigger. My emails are small fine as well so that needs fixing.

It does look good but the font size is way too small. Is it possible to set the font size as a default?

Ken, it is apparently illegal to turn back boats, that is according to maritime law. It must be costing a fortune to house these poor souls in hotels but they set fire to ex army barracks that they consider to be not fit for purpose. The UK have given the French 51 million pounds to help stop the flow. It is an awful problem. It may not be our welfare system which encourages them to come here. Many of them have family already here and maybe language plays a part.

The world news is upsetting I agree so I try to just concentrate on what is happening in England. I say England because I am sick of moaning Scots and can't wait for them to get out of the union. I may be in the minority here but Nicola Sturgeon angers me so much. I am also glad that we have joined with the US and Australia and left the French out of it. Suppose that I am an awful person with my views so many of you will disagree with me.

Regarding avatars. I see that my work in progress avatar us up at the top. I like it but there are not enough wrinkles and crows feet and I look positively bursting with health and vitality. The hair is a reasonable reproduction of my present colour so I will keep that.
As a result I will be looking round for a more appropriate facsimile of myself but cartoon/emojis for the elderly don't seem to exist. Another little niggle. The font size is far too small for me to see even with my cataract operation improved eyes.
Oh I see when one can see the post I have just done, it enlarged the font and was super.
