Why are you bothering me again?
« on: October 09, 2017, 03:14:45 AM »
In the last couple of hours I've gotten several notifications (PMs) that are fairly old.
It sounds like others are experiencing the same.
I just had a message from a member saying they'd thought they answered me, apologized, and answered again.

I don't know if it's related to the fact that for some time I wasn't getting notifications at all. I just noticed I had new PMs when I got on the forum.

P.S. topic title is of course a joke.

Mostly.  :lolb:

Yeah, I've received several notifications for old PMs over the weekend. Some came in yesterday, and a few more today.  It was startling at first because I had the same thought . . . Did I forget to reply and someone had to write me again?

But then I remembered that Ade said the he has had to kick the mail queue to get it going sometimes when it gets clogged up, and I'll be that is what this is.

I just received several from you Phil, but I knew that we had already completed our conversation. Also several more from other members.

Have a wonderful day,

The Tum is all of a fluster having seen the latest news on the Beeb/Sky... I looks like I could be encouraged to retire next year :( with a large cash payout  :wallbang: More workshop time  :facepalm: How will I cope   :stir:

just a minute let me get a hanky to wipe my eyes  :mischief:


you will manage just fine ,remember I retired from the bank at 50 thats 20 years ago , got a pay rise from the state at 65  :naughty:

plenty of cash in the bank and a pension now of twice the average earnings Head leach ( tax man) has his share ever month

I do not regret stoping w**k early at all its great , after working shifts since I was 20 365 days 24 7 inc xmas day for 37 years and finishing up on 12.5 hours days and nights I am glad to be out of it


now have a sit down and sip the wine slowly until the bottle is empty and I am sure your tum will seem much better advice take at your own risk from Dr Stuart
