It may be nothing, but...

... my avatar keeps disappearing and reappearing.

Last time, when everyone's avatars vanished, mine didn't. Just thought I'd mention it...

Mine comes and goes. I think it's Mince tinkering with the mechanics. ..0

Great band that, Mince And the Mechanics. Went to see them in Edinburgh once.
I apologise, in advance.

Many years ago, a friend of mine went to London to make his fortune in the music business. Things didn't happen immediately so he was obliged to take a job in a garage to pay the bills. It was just after that when he re-named his band "Petrol Pump and the Attendants". He had style, my mate.

The venues, you know, where they performed... did they fill them up?

Is it only me, or is anyone else experiencing connection problems this weekend?

Well my hubby was a bit of a jerk over my emceeing the Olympic thingy but he is out there today shovelling up frozen dog poo to make up for it - still wouldn't say we are connecting that well though.

Yes. I tried to get Beau Peep (and another, lesser known, forum) from about four o'clock this morning. I was finally connected late this afternoon!!

But it was OK, I hadn't missed anything!

Yes, I've also had a few random error pages turning up when I've tried to access the forums over the last few weeks.

I can tell they're not the forum, because the background isn't yellow and the words make sense.

...I did connect with my high school friend yesterday on Facebook when she joined and asked me. I haven't heard from her since though.

I couldn't get on here again this morning. It was most distressing.
