How do I start a new topic on a forum. I want to ask a techie question about Smart Tvs. Found the forum but can’t see how to open a new topic

Morning It was an ok day yesterday, I quickly sorted out Lucy’s skirt in the morning, and then generally relaxed, doing a jigsaw that we started on Friday. Its a complicated one and will keep us occupied till Christmas. We had a good lunch with the usual 4, Wendy and Keith arriving a bit late as the...

Morning Despite yesterdays red sky in the morning we had a dry and sometimes sunny day reaching 10 degrees. We walked into town, I left Bob at the optician for his hearing test then I went for a walk round the shops, a rare event, and bought a present for Julia ´s birthday which is just after New Ye...

Taken this morning on my new phone which I am beginning to love very much

Morning A dry day is forecast. We had one yesterday apart from a very light shower about noon. We had a lovely meal and afternoon with our friend Wendy and it was nearly 4 when we got back. She had never been to the restaurant before and liked it very much being impressed with the prices, portion si...

Morning I had a good session with Maxine other than my worst fears being true. The fit of the sleeves was not right and I thought they would have to come out and be reset. After a lot of fiddling Maxine agreed with me which meant unpicking what was actually a finished garment. Neither Maxine nor I c...

Forgive my ignorance Sue, but how do you know when you are no longer infectious? Is it when the coughing and sneezing stops? Colds flu etc are infectious a couple of days before the symptoms which is why they spread so rapidly and like Covid the infective stage has usually gone by day 5. Any remain...

Well I am on my phone I changed my password… to what the password was anyway

try login on a computer at the library if you have access to check / change password. Iphones are above my pay grade but I suspect you might have a CAPS set issue , where it is holding capitols - android releases unless you double up shift first. Watch too for underscore and dash and other odd char...

Neither do I . I may have to change my password I supposev

Not my pass word. I have a good password but I have been refused a login and been asked to fill in a complex set of info from a phrase 29th February… Etc. Fill in 2 nd letter, 4 th, 6 th, 15 th 21 st and 27 th This very difficult on a phone. I have a valid and apparently a very good password and my ...

I have always regarded Apple kit as overpriced and over-hyped. You can buy a whole lot of Android for less money and are not locked into the same OS and apps. All our phones and tablets talk to each other without problems as required. That's my 10 pennorth. I hope you get it sorted Sue Yes but when...

Ok all I am trying to do is sort my new phone out. It won’t log in to one guy. I tried changin g my password on my ipad but don’t think it has. I have been asked an arduous CAPTCHA. Test. By my reckoning it is not possible there are not 27 letters. Do the spaces count as letters. It is very difficul...

I hope so…it cost enough

When we got new phones there was an issue with WhatsApp transferring to the new phones. Col looked into it and came up with a simple solution that worked. Shame I can't remember. Is there a QR code in the app? I didn’t have a QR reader as that wouldn’t load either which was really another problem 😳

Morning It was a hard day yesterday sorting out this new phone. I have changed from Android to iphone and I was assured everything would transfer via an app. Well half of it did then the instructions of what to do seem to disappear or were confusing so I ended up having to do all the apps by hand. N...

Not really to both Stanley, present are immediate family only, cards include close friends past and present. The iphone is turning out to be very difficult to set up

Morning The after effects of the cold continue as I am still heavily congested and experiencing headaches because of it. Bob is at the tickling cough stage. However in ourselves we feel ok, I have finished the Christmas cards and wrapping whilst Bob has done a few internal and external decorations. ...

Morning We had a lovely meal yesterday, The Ram is well worth visiting. It started raining just as we got home about 4.00 pm and wasn't heavy until the evening. Today it is due to rain all day. I want to go to Rochdale to buy wrapping paper for Tairas 50 th birthday present from the Tuesday group pl...

Morning Looking good there Kev, i think we went to a wedding there once or it may have been my Aunts 90 th birthday. Long time ago This morning I am feeling a lot better though Bob is now suffering a bit. I did not sleep as well as the last couple of nights but I hadn’t taken any medication. The par...

Morning Another sound nights sleep, with minimal medication. I reckon I am over the worse now. We went for a walk yesterday afternoon to the post office and then a short distance down Whitworth Road to a specialist workshop machine repairer. I need some sewing scissors sharpened and after a search o...

Morning That was better, apart from a trip to the loo about 2, I slept from 11.30 till 7.30 pm. This morning i have a thick head but hopefully will now be on the mend as this is day 4 and a bit. I didn’t do pilates and yoga as I felt quite yuk yesterday evening. Maxine has said no to a sewing sessio...

Morning Yes the second one in a month Stanley. This one is just a runny nose and mild congestion , I only had a hint of a sore throat on Saturday evening. I am up in the kitchen with a cuppa as I cannot sleep, and am feeling bored. I have finished one book on my kindle and started another but sleep ...

Afternoon

Taking it easy today as I have another cold. I didn’t go to french but did some grammar myself. I will do my yoga this evening online. I have written some Christmas cards this afternoon. Its a miserable day out there

Morning We had a lovely afternoon with Claire yesterday, a nice opportunity to ignore the awful weather. Erin was doing her homework, of which she seems to get a lot . I helped her just a little with her Biology but it gave us some nice grandma grand daughter time. It was after 5 .00 when we got hom...
