Re: It's Monday and, I'm Back

It's always a treat to travel a route by some "different" means. I've enjoyed cruising on the River Shannon, but it can be quite busy! When you tie up in a place you know well and have been through frequently, by road, it feels like a whole new place. And "slow" travel is wonderf...

The "Bowman" Board

WELL! Not sure what to make of the "theme" at "Bowman-land", but how about this: http://mustardland.proboards.com/post/2709/thread Note the nice, confident "Our unwanted guest is now banned from making more appearances so that's a result ...". As I said, I've been away ...

Re: Tuesday

3Wells is understandably somewhat apprehensive but keeping her spirits up; they've increased her pain-killers quite a lot. More investigations tomorrow, and plans that have to involve another hospital (or two) up in Dublin, whether or not she'll have to be transferred is as yet unknown. I spent the ...

Re: Tuesday

Looks like there's been some sort of response from Proboards, Angie is showing as "admin". And at least one of the two "perfect storm" elements has been closed down (I suspect by Proboards): guest posting is now disabled. I don't know if user registration has been changed to requ...

Hi Dragon, Sorry to hear you've fallen on hard ground. Feel free to flame anybody you see dropping stuff on paths. Will keep fingers crossed for good eye assessment on Tuesday. Am I the only one who is absolutely delighted that the last seven weeks of politricks is over? It's finally safe to turn t...

Hi <insert season of your choice> Dragon! Thanks, I'll pass on the gentle thoughts when I next talk with 3Wells - she's due a visit from neurologist this afternoon so still considerable apprehension. Sorry indeed to hear about your own travails ... (erm, hope that doesn't bring the grammar brigade d...

Oh dear, you need to have stern words with your pooter ... or your broadband provider! Hope you had a good night. Looks like no-one is paying any attention to you - or to the others (such as FK) who demonstrate some sanity. I posted again (as EB, but as a "guest" ... which is both safer an...

Here's to all those who exercised their franchise ... and hoping for a good outcome! Sadly, I'm afraid the politicians will get in ;-) Rough day here. I took 3Wells for her review appointment with the spinal surgeon after her recent hospitalisation - after a while, he sort of said this isn't too goo...

You are posting, but as a "guest": you haven't registered as a "user". That's OK, you're allowed do that, but registered users can do a lot more (as a guest, every post is in pre-mod; guests can't use avatars, private messages, and so on).

Re: This board is operational!

In view of the recent sudden closure of Sue's, "known" posters (obvious refugees) will be released from "pre-moderation" after their first post.

Hopefully I'm good to go now.

Re: Good Morning all Monday 5 June

Ignore them GLO. The software used on Peet's is quite ancient and would probably take far too much time to bring up to current spec. Even if it were possible. I haven't totally wasted today - in spite of my best efforts. I shall certainly try much harder to waste this evening. Will. Yep, it's ancie...

Re: Good Morning all Monday 5 June

Good Bank Holiday [in Ireland] Monday.

Sad to say, I'm not too surprised at "the closure"; it's the totally innocent folk who have real difficulty posting in Peets that I feel most sorry for. I'm not going to comment any further.
