Firefox has been a bust. As soon as I tried to open a new tab on it it said "enter the URL or search with Google" at which point LZ would no longer open. And I couldn't get it to function properly anyway so I have deleted it. So I am back on the...

Outlook works. Occasionally yer need to change the port numbers or control strings. They have blocked the old meffuds of data transfer to increase security. So outlook 2000, 2007 won't wuk anymore. Ignore wot bt ses.

I was on outlook before, I think, and had such problems with it that some female from BT put me onto Mozilla Thunderbird, which has worked very well until a few days ago. I have decided that I will get my noo pooter out and open up an email...

...that in a surprise turn of events my wife was called by the medical examiner about her mum's "cause of death". He is unhappy about the state of the old gal and how come she walked into hosp with just a septic leg wound but died with sepsis and...

I've come to the conclusion TV advertising or advertising in General are crap. Few years ago the push for near Biro shaped women would be all the rage. While you have massive push healthy living for this and that diets. Clearly a market aimed at...

I have just this minute downloaded Firefox and yes, it allows me to open LZ so thanks for that tip. Lord knows why it won't open on Google. Still don't care and I will ot worry about not getting notifications via Email as I can come on here and...

Probably the bestest free tool ive ever had. 🤣 🤣 Another great tool is the Dewalt reciprocating saw. Its cuts through an old style scaffold tube in 30 seconds, great for the garden too as there is all sorts of blades for em. :cool::cool:

Got offered a D3 thats got a starting issue, wants 250 for it to get half the price of the big nobby tyres. Think ive got enough projects for the mo.

Evening all, eye had a day off which meant going flippen shopping. :rolleyes: Misses had a tic in her side must have got it a few days ago when all the neebs were butchering hedges & bushes along the side of the burn (stream for you lot downhill)...

You don't have a cat do you🤔

Can yer use outlook instead?

I have done a lot of that and I empty my inbox etc regularly as I do my spam folder and deleted folder. It isn't just slow it simply isn't downloading new messages at all nor is it letting me send messages. Yet I can read the new ones on my...

No it hasn't. 😠

I am now reduced to talking to you on my old phone 🙄

I could give you pounds shillings and pfennigs if my blasted pooter wasnt playing up. But basically we are currently paying in £138 odd to Octopus per month for both gas and electric similar to last year. So times that by 6. 😉

Not really an answer 🤔. J

Email slowness can be down to many larger files still in the inbox instead of archiving. Also the servers from your provider if a smaller company, can put a brake on technically to allow other users an equal service. I have Outlook and Gmail...

Restarting windows gives a clean boot. Same as telling it to shut down then pressing the power buttom to start it. Yer dun't need to kill the battery. Does LZ wuk wiv firefox web browser?
