    The forecast for Nottingham tomorrow gives a temperature of 17 deg C, which is almost winter.

     

    Just been out in it today, and it's a bit cool. Wearing clothes I hadn't used for several months, and turned up the heating in the car.

  2. Good - and surprising - news on the medical front.

     

    I rang my GP this morning for an appointment (nothing serious). I got through easily and was given a time of 10.40am........in person.

     

    I had to double check what I was hearing, because I expected a phone consultation; that's all I've had for several years. To go back to seeing a real doctor in the same room was a bit of a shock.

    Kev, when I go on messages, I get the list and when I choose one, it opens and in the right hand top I get two choices= message list and options.

    If I choose options, it gives me a choice, either 'turn notifications off' or 'delete conversation'.

    Yes, that's another way of deleting messages....which I'd not noticed.

     

    The way I've always done it is to click on 'Message List', which gives a list of messages down the left-hand side; then choose one to delete it.

     

     

  4. Ben, look at the screenshot which BK has posted a couple of posts back (with his red circle).

     

    In the top right corner you can see the envelope symbol. Do you see that on your screen ?

     

    That's the one I was referring to in my earlier post., which enables you to clear your inbox.

  5. My experience with the efficiency of Currys is not something for them to be proud of. 

     

    A couple of years ago I paid the extra to Currys to have a washing machine installed and the old one taken away, on the basis that it's easier than trying to mess around with it myself.

     

    However, they screwed up on the installation of the new model. Trying to ring them to get it sorted was a going-round-in-circles nightmare. Eventually, I sorted the problem out myself (an on/off valve had been left in the wrong position by their 'fitters') but I'll never use Currys again for anything like that.

  6. I also have the form which lists Repeat items.

     

    I tick the box for whatever I need, and stick the form in the box at the doctor’s reception area.

     

    Then go to Morrison’s pharmacy to collect it a few days later.

     

    And they give me another form with more boxes to tick whenever I need the next one.
