Daily chat: Tuesday 7th August 2012

Good morning everybody.

I think we're all in for a bit of a grey one today with a bit of rain at times. Whatever we get weatherwise it will still be a lot better than we got for most of June and July until 2 weeks ago!

Whatever the weather we will still be here for you to come and rant or rave about your problems and successes.

However far you are with your quit - thinking about it, date setting, starting or a long way down the road, please come and share your experiences with everyone else.

Good Morning Andi and Everybody else

Yep, absolutely bouncing it down here too Andi. Always looking for the positive though, and for those of you who have stopped smoking at least you don't have to nip outside for a sneaky one

To remain strong and not let those sneaky white sticks get the better of your minds, remember your reasons for giving up smoking in the first place.

Also, make sure your reasons stay your reasons for staying stopped and don't let them become your excuses for giving in

Good morning everyone the weather is nice here, blue sky and sun might go for a walk after the cycling, i love watching the velodrome

got over my down mood from yesterday, was really helped by being able to talk to everyone on here, a big thank you for that xx

gonna have breakfast now will chat later xx

[andi22 in reply to sue52]

Hi Sue, I love the velodrome too - it's one of my favourites.

I didn't watch anything yesterday so am making up for it today. The problem is that you can't record anything cos you can bet your bottom dollar that they'll change channels as I've found to my cost a couple of times!

[sue52 3 YEAR WINNER]

Hi Andi same here, it's so annoying, so now i'm stuck in when it's on again, today is the last day for cycling

hope there's no gremlins about today, yesterday drove me nuts x

[andi22 in reply to sue52]

Yes, gremlins about today. It took til the third go to post to you before. I could have screamed!!! Shame cos the first message was the best. Will have to get Pete to put up how you can copy before posting tonight.

Am currently watching the triathlon and hoping to catch a bit of the kieran (if they show it! )

[sue52 3 YEAR WINNER]

I know i've had problems to posts going on 2 or 3 times grr

i'll need to see how to copy as well, although i have to keep deleting duplicates just now xx

[EmJay Partner]

Hey Everybody,

I have reported all the problems to HealthUnlocked, nobody has got back to me yet so I don't know what is going on

Something else weird is happening too.... At the top of the screen by the daily chat blog title, it tells you how many comments there are. On Claire's it says 4 comments, on mine it actually says -3 (minus 3?!) and yet we have 9 comments altogether?!

What's all that about then?

With regards to copying and pasting before you post, I used to have to do this all the time but since using Chrome, I don't have to. Claire automatically writes her's up in a word document first and then copy and pastes it

Here's a link to Pete's post so that you all know how to copy and paste;

quitsupport.healthunlocked....

Hope this helps

[andi22 in reply to EmJay]

Thanks for that Emjay, just practiced it and it worked.

[sue52 3 YEAR WINNER]

Thanks Emjay think that's needed today my daily chat said 4, now it's -2

hopefully this will post once xx

[jarvo]

Hang on a minute!!!!!

Whats going on, i've got -2 comments under todays blog but all these comments are still visible

[EmJay Partner]

I now have all your comments, but it's telling me there are none!!

You are welcome Sue

[EmJay Partner]

Hi again everybody,

just to let you know I've had the following message back from HealthUnlocked;

Hi EmJay,

There is currently a problem with downloading poll results, I will be uploading a fix later today.

I am also aware of the slow site speed, this is due to unusually high server load. I am investigating the cause, however I cannot currently provide a time for when this will be resolved.

I apologise for the inconvenience.

Best Wishes,

Alex

Afternoon everybody, just watching the cycling now, am allowed to veg out in front of the tv today.

Did my run this morning which went well. at lunchtime I saw the triathlon - great race, great result. I then went out and donated blood for my first time. They nearly didn't take it and had to check my iron level which was just ok. That gives me the excuse to relax and eat sweet things!

[EmJay Partner]

Ooooh good for you Andi, I've just munched a Curly Wurly I needed a little sugar boost myself

[sue52 3 YEAR WINNER]

Good for you Andi that's brill
