Archev's adventures in the Berlingo

[Rolfe]

My insurance repudiated my claim for the conservatory doors that were destroyed by the storm on the grounds that there was some rot there already, and it's going to set me back close on £3,000 to get new ones fitted. Ouch. I hope it can be done soon because I've already waited a while, and I can't get out of my back door at the moment. But it's in hand.

No big deal, but interestingly I'm not getting notifications for updates to this thread (which I have previous posts in).... maybe it's because this thread was created from our off-topic wanderings on @Rolfe's other thread and the notification mechanism within Zenforo only triggers when one adds a new post. Will see if I start getting notifications again now.

 

[Rolfe]

I got a notification of your post.

 

[decrep]

so did I

 

[Everest]

And got yours too now, thanks.

Well I charged the Citroen to its 80% battery magnificence for £1.33 to have it amping at the bit and ready for an epic road trip to a historic area linked to industrial power over the years. I travelled to Kinniel House. Behind the main house is a cottage where James Watt once lived and worked on steam engines. I parked in front of the big house where some of the world’s finest motor shows happen and also the magnificent oldest Hillclimb racing takes place with the world's finest steam railway museum running steam engines right alongside automotive marvels from every age.

But today it was only the Citroen and me, two miles from home en route to Tesco for my fruit ‘n veg.
Lovely day though.

You're teasing me again, fantastic stuff to see and visit, that I'll never get to do.

Yeah but that works both ways. The tales and pictures from Everywhere have that effect on all of us I’m sure.

Not sure there's space for downward dog, but savasana would be perfect

 

[decrep]

yep, isn't it great.

Just home from Livingston where I met Daughter and her dog for lunch. I’ve plugged the car in for a basic 10% top up to around 80% but there’s a possibility I might change that to the full 100% later on. I might just go to Fort William tomorrow for fun / a wee road trip or perhaps even to stay over for a night or two.

I didn't know you and your family had Korean tendencies?

Oh no they’re both fine and currently on the beach around Girvan somewhere

I cannot stay logged in. Having to faff around logging in each time I open to check for latest posts etc. also getting incessant pop ups about privacy.
I’ve had this for a while now, perhaps since the new Forum thing took over.
Can anyone tell me what’s going on? What anm I doing wrong ? And / or how a semi Luddite can rectify things ?I enjoy the content and the banter even though I’ve jumped ship to Citroen but can’t seem to find anything comparable in that camp especially for electric Berlingos.

PS I mostly join (or try to) on my iPhone or sometimes the iPad. I don’t have a laptop top or desk top.

All I can say is that this is not happening to me, either on my phone or on my PC. The only issues are a couple of bugs that seem to be affecting people logged in as moderators.

You could try starting a thread in the Forum Resources section?

My Android phone is mostly used to visit here and that has Bitdefender on it, if that makes any difference (anti-virus software).

I have not seen any issues.

 

[Everest]

Works fine on Windows 95 using Netscape Navigator

Don't forget to check the 'stay logged in' box when signing in. If you are doing so and still having problems not sure what it could be.

It’s always got a tick.
