General Chat

Hi Marianne (my beloved nearly daughter in laws name :)) Here is a Dubonnet with lots of ice and a slice of lime, just for a change...hope thats o.k. :) XX BC

I'll join the protest march. I'd like to know why using this site has become such a time-consuming chore. Having got my tree in a muddle due to the non-appearance of pages that couldn't be displayed and being unable to print off past page 18 of the tree when I needed it, I've had hours of extra work to do to put it right. It's almost as if some GR person flicks a switch every time I'm trying to work on my tree, do a quiz on the Gen Board, read past page one of threads or move between Boards, so that I get blank white pages, green pages, this page cannot be dispayed or HappyGenes error number ... It's enough to give me a persecution complex (if I didn't already have one!). CB >|<

Hi BC, I'm fine thank you me darling. 'It's still all quiet'. Oh well. I'll have a v.large VAT, ice and a slice please. I need it. I'm a good heckler, so if we're gonna get anything done about all this you might need me. Mind you, I'm beginning to think I must have lost my voice cos I don't think they've heard me so far. LOL J UPDATE BC, It wouldn't be worth burning mine, the flames wouldn't last long enough to warm your hands pmsl

Just got back on, so count me in. Fed up with having to copy and paste everything I type up to Word 'just in case'. Who's been messing with me hanging baskets! Anna

thanks BC - not long now! :-) Joy

Do you know a girl could die of frustration? Thats why I am cutting my losses and going to bed....tee hee.....Night all you Militants, Hecklers and Shop Stewards and Hanging Baskets....sleep well and dream of Nirvana.....XXXX BC

i'm off to zzz too. nite everyone. lynnxx

Nite nite all J

AND whats more...did you know that if you press Refresh in a last ditch attempt to post a b**** reply, it posts your message twice, making you look like a complete prat. Where do I pay my subs? Marjorie

Oh No, it's getting ridiculous. Are they doing it purposely d'you think. No other paying sites have these problems for so long AND they tell you when there is a problem. J :-))

When I did the survey and it asked for any suggestions ....... (after deleting my first response to avoid getting chucked off)..... I suggested a notice board for them to keep us updated about the actions they are taking when there are problems with the board as well as site maintenence etc. I have never had a response from the 'GR team' when I have contacted them............ it would be nice to know whats going on!!! Mandy Right then up the revolution brothers and sisters, when do we picket headoffice!!!!!! (but first can comeone tell me how we picket a virtual office?)

they're drinking on chat! is that the right board? :-) Joy

That's a good question. I think we're already doing it but we're not being very successful. Brick wall springs to mind, only this time it's not the usual genealogical one LOL J

What's the world coming to Joy!!!!!! I saw a poem on there earlier!!!!!! WHAT EVER NEXT.................... its Armagedon.............

ah a poem! a gallant knight wrote one for the Beautiful Lady From The Forest!

Good Morning all. I'll join too! I've just been timed out again (web site not responding).

I'll join your Union, I am fed up of trying to access the boards, change boards and post messages. I have suggested a way of speeding things up on other threads though. When the 'progress bar' at the bottom of the window stops moving, try clicking on the STOP button then click on the 'link' (to board or thread) again. It seems to go quicker for some reason. Try it and see if it works for you. So how mayny members has the Union got now? Lynne

Jacki, you got your fighting head on tonight;; I dont blame you.. Been there got T_Shirt with this site. Jess your letting your age out now I remember that programme to!!!

OK girls.....and boys......back from my drin.....errr I mean important Union Mission..... The Head Count is now 22 members of the Gr Members Union!!! Well done all of you....sorry I missed most of the meeting....well done BC and Lynne for Keeping it going..... Hope you didn't get too dru.....I mean lost without me!!! Right then.....next step....all out strike action... Maybe not - we wouldn't be able to have a meeting then would we.... But action is needed!!!!! We need a meeting..... Jacquie xxxx
