Worth trying, anyway.

Happy Christmas everyone - won't have time to post in the morning, hope you all have a great day :)

The wind brought some of my fence down and some of the back wall with it. I wish I'd just lost a few poxy geraniums :(

He seems to be out .....

If you can't stand the heat, keep out of the kitchen :))

I got some cash out of that cash machine outside Barry's in Barry Road . At the bottom of the advice slip, it says "Season's Greetings from everyone at Bank Machine" :))

It's a lovely mural, and the outside of the shop looks very smart.

Hope you're OK now, Ontherun? ETA: I have only been to A&E once, and on that occasion too the staff were absolutely fantastic.

Ta - will check it out!

Thanks - haven't tried swype yet ....

I have now had a response from my email to Sony, with instructions to reset the device and if that does not work, to get back to them. There was no mention of condensation ..... Fox, there is no "device door", but thanks for your help. Actually, you had jumped over suggestion 6, which is what Sony have now suggested. Fingers crossed .... but resetting sounds ominous. All my settings down the drain .... oh well. Needs must. I think I'll wait till after Christmas, to minimise my stress levels :)) ETA: Luckily, just also seen this advice: "IMPORTANT: Sony does not recommend the use of over-the-counter CD/DVD player lens cleaners."

Usually I curse predictive text, which comes up with ridiculous options, but over the last few weeks it seems to be psychic, oo-er. Just typed in "Will" as the first word of a text, then "d" - and it came up with "discuss", which was what I wanted to type. How the f*** did it know that?? Surely not coincidence? And it can't be from my old texts, as I don't usually say "will discuss" in texts :))

GRRRRRRR. Christmas is expensive enough without having to replace things :(

Can anybody who has switched surgeries suggest a viable alternative to DMC in the same catchment area? With equally good GPs but a very much better admin system?
