Why do my previous strikes disappear from my Word document when I post on here :mad::mad:

That always happens to me too, I have to go back and redo them

Strikes

They are HTML code so you can't paste them into word doc then back over, you will need to restrike or copy & paste your list including the code ie [strike before with the closing bracket [/strike after also including the close bracket as far as I am aware. IIRC they work on wordpad.

Thanks, useful to know why it happens!

Pleased I got one star the last two weeks, going to try to match that this week!

MissHiggerty

Thanks to everyone for the support on my paper - I feel so relieved to have got the thing done... :beer:

More evidence of the power of the Flyladies (if any were needed...)...

Having 'chased my compost bin' the other day (by e-mail.... :rolleyes:) and reported it here, I got ready to go out, hardly 30 mins later and....

A delivery van screeched up to my door, a guy dashed up to my door, silver mules whooshing about his ears, massive green package in tow, and *there it was*!!! My brand new compost bin, to add to my collection (I so wanna have four like Hex... I have three now!).

I guess he must have been lurking on the board....??? Tall guy, muscular, quite young - belong to anyone????

Mudbath and Soappie: take it easy, eh???? :rotfl:



Off to bed, then off to fly tomorrow...

MissH

For some reason the link for the thorntons bargain is not working for me??????????????? Will keep trying though!!!

lil_me

Mudbath you are wonderful, no I had not seen it! They do those lovely boxes you can add photos too, I was looking for something personalised for some ladies in the family brilliant, 3 for 2 too! I used topcashback because they don't charge commission & I have got the higher rate with them (if anyone wants my referal link pm me)

toochoosey possibly busy but being the second site you are struggling with today, possibly your internet connection

Expenses, that reminds me, I still need to chase up my missing ones!

Right not lots more done but it's looking a little better in here, need to gather uniforms to set out, make packed lunch then bed time I think. Night all x x x

Unfortuately not, but if you see him again, send him down this way

Had a soak in the bath (there's a ginormous cobweb on the lampshade in the bathroom:o)... am now too tired to sort myself out for the morning :rolleyes: so breakfast will be banana & cereal bar. Hopefully I'll have worked out what clothes I need to pack by the time I wake up!

See you all tomorrow... hope you manage to stay out of trouble

not sure lil me....everything else working ok now and kaz is having problems to????????????
