G'day Lee
I've been locked out of the MB for the past 24 hours because the login boxes at top left of the MB which are usually full of asterisks (which I presume to be my username and password) suddenly appeared empty! I was offered the chance of getting a new password but the promised link to my email address never eventuated. However, when I tried to login again, the asterisks suddenly reappeared. So I'm wondering if it might be useful to let everyone know that if they encounter forgotten password problems when logging in, just keep trying and you'll eventually succeed. What do you think?

I certainly remember the weather. As it happens, this month (21st) marked the 53rd anniversary of the last battle we fought there. How things have changed, eh?

Good morning from southern Oz... Hope everyone is well, wherever you are 

Morning Martin,

Nice to actually see a message from a living person.  I pop on to see if there is anyone to reply to!  I have stopped emailing Lee. I don't want to be a nuisance!  He told me to send my spreadsheet but now I can't remember why I wanted him to look at it.

Everything is OK, Ernie seems OK and I have been in touch with Alby Simpson.  I wanted Sandy Prince's (Sixsmith's) email address because she may know how Teresa is.  I wanted to find Jim Lucas as well, I was friendly with his ex wife but maybe he won't know where she is.  She did live in Scarborough. Wish I had made more friends amongst the wives or should I say kept in touch with some wive's.

I have only just found out the significance of some women putting a box of OMO washing powder in the window.  OMO meaning Old Man Out, how novel and amusing really.

My cleaner has just left, I have had her nearly a year and it is wonderful.  She is a family friend so it is not like having a stranger in my house.

Sir Kier Starmer doesn't seem to be doing very well.  They are wanting him out already and he is handing out huge wage increases to train drivers who already get 60k a year.  The Docs have not had any pay increases for years so they deserved theirs.  Not sure about teachers, I think they fill the kids up with ideas about gender stuff etc so maybe leave them alone..  Nurses could do with something I think.

Family are OK.  Simon came home for my 85th for 6 weeks because he had no job.  He now has a job so he will be home over Xmas, not his wife, it is too cold for her.  My daughter gets over periodically and I see my other Marsden daughter once a week.  I am very happy on my own and always have been.

Thinks that is all.  As well as the iMac I now have a refurbished MacBook Pro which I love.  Martin (the man who bult the website initially) always told me that if I moved on to Apply I was on my own!!

On that note I will bid you goodbye

Pam

Afternoon All,
Have to try to keep it going.  It is a bit hard to even find somewhere to post a reply.  But I realised that I have to log in in order to reply. 

Nothing much happened to me, nothing every does.  Having a cleaner is delightful and she does other jobs like cutting the grass, hanging clothes out, organising my freezer and fridge, clearing out cupboards and filling in forms.  My God I must be getting stupid.  I can't remember how to do things but I can remember all the details of the John Profumo scandal and the horrific murderer John Reginal Halliday Christie.  My Mum and I waited for the paper to come every morning so we could read all about it.
