Ann pleased that you and OH had a lovely lunch out with your friend.

Is it the lady that you were supposed to have had lunch with a couple of weeks ago, but she was poorly?



Sylvia, this site is better today than it's been for long while, just want to thank you for getting in touch with Phil and Co. I wouldn't have known where to start.



Take care everyone.



Love and best wishes. Sallie.xxx

Hope you didn't get blown away tonight Mo and that you won your darts match.

Sallie, we were out today, we took our friend who was widowed out to a garden centre for coffee then to lunch at a local pub carvery which was very good and she enjoyed it too.

Hi everyone, as you know there have been ongoing performance issues for several months now. Our most experienced Genes developer, Toby, has been working on this for the last week. He has made some improvements so that changes which are normally made via our live database are now actioned in the background. This means that the live database isn't drawn on so much, which is why performance has been affected. This is a work in progress and Toby will continue to make changes over the coming week. We'd like to thank you for alerting us to the problems you've experienced. We are really sorry it has taken so long to resolve. However, you should start to see an improvement. Please bear with us as these changes will be gradual, but we're confident that you will find the site is working much better than it has been.



so we MIGHT see improvements ........... I hope!

Oh Huia, I did laugh at my "BUG HUG" I meant a big hug for Jean, my fingers and thumbs are getting mixed and muddled lately. lol ;-)

Yes I have got darts Sallie, but I am not looking forwards to going out in these high winds and rain, yuk, it's awful out there, I feel like snuggling down in front of the fire.
It's supposed to be going down to minus 3 tomorrow night, just think about me girls, I shall be out dancing the night away, then going out into the freezing cold to come back home, brrrrr.
There will be at least 22 of us from the darts teams, going to our local golf club for a meal and dancing. Great fun should be had by all.

Must get into my bath now girls, speak to you tomorrow. Love Mo xxx

Hello girls,


It's very quiet on here. Where is everyone? Hope everything is okay with you all.


Mo, not sure if you have a darts match tonight, if you do hope you and your team will win.Good luck.

The weather has been awful here today, really cold and windy with a lot of rain. I had to put the lights on before 2.45 so that I could see the keyboard on this laptop.


I'll speak to you later.


Love, Sallie.xxx

Mo, after I had sent you the pm last night I had a phone call from Joyce, she hasn't got the internet this week so she's asked me to pass on her very good wishes to Roly and she hopes that the hospital will soon sort whatever it is out.

She had gone to bed but couldn't sleep because of the cramp and pain in her legs. I just wish there was something the dodtor could do to help her a bit more, but apart from the help and medication she is having, there isn't anything else he can do.



Thank you for asking me on your pm.... the antibiotic that I'm taking seems to be helping I am slowly starting to feel better. So hope it will continue that way.


Sending lots of best wishes to Roly and hoping that it will all be sorted out for him very soon.




Speak to you all later on.



Love, Sallie.xxx

Cooeee girls, just a quickie before I go to bed.
Roly has had his scan, and there are no signs of any stones, so now he has to have the other tests done.
The dye injection, or the camera up the private parts. And believe me he is not looking forwards to that.
We were both relieved about the lack of stones, but it does not answer the questions as to why he has been in so much pain.
Now all we have to do is wait and see when they send an appointment through for him.
Thank you all for your support messages today, it's so nice to have such good caring friends.
I received your p.m Sallie, so we know that the system works when it feels like it.
I have answered as well, so it will be nice knowing that we are able to p.m each other at long last.
Thank you for the lovely card received today Sallie. You card making girls are so clever.
Oh and while I think of it, I had an E.Mail today from our Jean. She is o.k thank the lord, and hopefully the fraud squad will sort out the blighters who stole from her, dirty rotten swines that they are. Causing Jean all this upset, it's just not fair. ((((((((((((BUG HUGS FOR YOU JEAN))))))))))))))))))))

Well my lovelies, I am away to my bed now, so I will say goodnight god bless you all. Love to one and all, Mo xxx

Hi Sylvia yes thanks I've received your reply and have answered it.

Also had a reply from Caz, so it looks as though as though Phil and Co have sorted it out at last, thank goodness.

Ann, Alun has informed me that the browser we use is IE8. So I can't understand why I haven't been able to send messages until tonight.


Hope that you are both alright.

Take care.



Love, Sallie.xxx

Hi Sylvia,

If he is working on it why does he say this then I wonder? At 5.30 today.


As a result, while these changes are being tested and retested, and while the new database indexes are still being created for the messages we are unable to roll out the Message Centre patch. This will be rolled out as soon as practical.

Thank you for bearing with us while we try to rectify these issues.

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 7 Dec 2011 22:19

I got your pm Sallie :-D


and ahve replied to it!




Ann ................. Phil has said elsewhere that he is working on the Messages problem, while other programmers are trying to sort out the problem.

He has also said that the Message Centre problems are a priority for him.


we can but hope!

On the announcements board Phil explains that the message board problems have had to wait until everything else is sorted. Having said that, other than having to wait ages each time for things to happen I can receive and send messages with no problem (firefox 8).

Hi Girls,

Sylvia, Caz and Mo I have managed to send the three of you a pm...the problem is whether you will receive them.lol!! Hope so!

Hi all
xxx

I cannot send pms when I use IE ...... mind you, I use the IE6 which is way out of date


I have to use Mozilla Firefox, and then I can send pms


Another contact cannot send pms with either Chrome or Firefox, but can send them with IE (not sure whether she has IE7 or IE8)



GR says they are working on it.






I hope that Roly's scan went well.

I have sent a couple of PMs recently, and received one, so it is working for me. My membership is due for renewal soon and I will be continuing. I enjoy seeing what everybody is up to and what the weather is like elsewhere.

Huia.

Linda, enjoy your turkey dinner tonight when your friends visit. Hope all goes according to plan.


Caz, like you I'm fed up of not being able to send pm's and wish that GR will soon get it sorted. I'm also wondering if it's worth bothering to renew my membership, but like you I would miss keeping in touch with all our friends.



Love, Sallie.xxx

Hope Rolys scan went alright Mo and that there is nothing to worry about.
Sallie my pm thread is not working either so I can't send any out, I wish they would hurry up and get it sorted, it's coming up time when I renew but I'm wondering if it is worth it, it's not like it used to be. There again I keep in touch with all my friends on here so I suppose I will.
