Of course they would!!

Muffy is being naughty at night now. He always wants to go out when it's almost bed time and he stays out for an hour. He's lurking now, but he's not going!! I'm too tired to sit and wait for him tonight!

I'm just finishing a cuppa and I'm off to bed.

That is why I have a cat flap. My two can be pains in the butt when it comes to in and out LOL. I am off myself in a minute for a long hot shower and then a comfy bed

OK I'm working on it.

Figured I need a beautiful photo of me. The only time in my life I've ever looked presentable!!


I now have a problem. While learning myself to do the picture, and yes I had compatability view on as well, I have managed to set the green head as my desktop background. Let me tell you it does nothing to improve the appearance of the desktop. Off I go to delete it. Hey I want one of those things with its tongue sticking out or it's middle finger up!!! :P :P

Ahh, lovely photo AuntyS, at least you have a nice baby photo....... mine is hideous.

I think that's a tongue sticking out, well that's what it looks like to me. :P :P

AuntySherlock Report 6 May 2011 22:47

OK That's solved.

Don't have much time. Very sore this morning but we have almost finished moving daughter's goods and chattels.

Rental is a shambles and definitely a do-er upper. Keep chanting to her, "it's only a rental, it's only a rental", as she lists the things she is going to do with the place. Must admit it does have wonderful potential, and I rather think the owners are going to come out on top when she finally leaves.

The garden, ha, ha, joke and back yard have been terribly neglected, and she already has plans for that.

Must go need to go shopping and then throw myself back into this fun again. I can hardly move and any part of me that does move hurts.

Oh dear! What does AS have planned????

What is it with us and our children? They are all grown up, but we still run around at their beck and call. Take it easy you two - and AS remind offspring that the landlord could give her notice after she has 'done it up'. All that hard work and money spent for someone else's profit/benefit.

We're supposed to have heavy rain/rain showers over night as well. Sod's law that debris from the gutters will block the in-flow to the water butts. And I ain't getting up in the middle of the nigh to unblock it! That's one good thing about unlimited water rates - no worries about filling watering cans.

Morning - although not a good one for Maz. Tut. Hope you made a note of it in your 'diary'. We so wish we could help you.

If no-one else does, I'll try to work out instructions to upload a picture, but there a couple of threads by other people who say they can't. Something about the browser you are using.

It did rain over night, but it couldn't have been much as the ground under the trees is still dry. At least one Butt is now half full. more rain promised in the next 24 hours. :-)

Sign into 'My Account', the link is in small writing above the dark green bar on any page.
Sign in and scroll down to 'Profile Picture'. Yours will be a grey man at this stage.
Click on 'Change'. A new box opens up.
Browse your computer until you find the image you want and click on it, then 'Open'. This is just as you would to attach something to an email.
That box will now close and you are left with the GR account page.
Now click on the 'Send file' on the photo profile and it should take.

Try a couple of times before giving up - some people say they thought it hadn't worked when in fact it had.
There is a possibility that you need to go into Compatibility Mode, or use a different browser. Do you have the Emoticons? AS said she had to do the Compatibility bit to see those.

Well done Maz!!!

Do you mean Ask the Nutters?
It should be listed on 'My Threads' if you posted on it. I'll go get the details.

It's on the 'Find Ancestors' Board.

no the line underneath our profile that says Researching so it says which surnames you are looking for .Incidently there are no emoticons on IE well my version will have to get froggy to see if it needs updating

+++DetEcTive+++ Report 7 May 2011 10:55

Ohhhhhh! Sorry - misunderstood. Haven't bothered with filling in that feature....to many to mention as the fancy strikes!

Might be worth getting Frog to check for updates anyway.
