Preparedness for when

Oh, that's encouraging mar. Was that actual RBS though, rather than NatWest? I don't know quite what will happen when I do try again, as I'd actually logged in before it decided it "couldn't find the cache" and there wasn't actually an opportunity to log back out again.

Did I miss this?

Isn't that the worst possible thing to come up when you log onto your bank?

"couldn't find the cache"

just a quick heads up that talk talk has been hacked and the cyber baddies may have customer bank details, phone numbers etc ....... I'm worried keeping close eye on y account

Being on a PAYG, 3 MiFi Dongle, I think I'm pretty safe.

Dunno about Mexico but I'm wondering what the Environment Agency know because they've just sent me a Floodline email with how # floodaware are you? as the subject line.

According to one of my work colleagues, they're predicting snow over the Pennines, this weekend.

Glad I'm nowhere near the Pennines, then!

Floodline also sent me a text as well as an email. I've been signed up with them for several years but they've never sent me anything before, they must be testing them ahead of an emergency. No present flood alerts for here, although there was a little mishap on the allotment when I didn't turn the spigot off on one of the waterbutts properly.

ETA; the world is bonkers. Went onto a site with a live traffic feed that correctly IDs me as being in the UK on other visits and now I am in San Francisco. Too funny........... ;P

Maybe it's got you confused with me :cool:

Whew! One of my "Thank God for the Pill and legal abortion" moments - so people are in control these days and can avoid what seems to have been the reason for such poverty (ie no way to avoid having loads of children).

Mind you - cynically followed-up by "we could do without the factors that have come along the last few years that might throw people into that - like zero hours contracts/unemployment benefit that has been cut to too little to live on level/etc".

We had some Normal Decades - (ie 1970s to about the turn of the century) - but seem to have just gone from a "having too many children could land you in it" (probably not the case for the "baby breeders" we now have:cool:) to one where "employers/State benefit levels" could land you in it".

So funny. It pulls up towns and cities in other parts of the world and used to sometimes place me in London (nowhere near it) but for the past year or so it just has me and (presumably) other British visitors listed as UK. It did have a blip once before and placed me somewhere obscure in Southern California; can't remember the place name but I did google it out of curiousity and it wasn't really very interesting.

Hey, you could try it https://hoardingwoes.wordpress.com/ and see where it thinks you are now. It still thinks I'm in SF. In fact, I'm home in Blighty in my jammies drinking tea.:p

I made these in my dehydrator because I couldn't be bothered messing with the oven. I just left them till they were crisp. They tasted great and they lasted a fortnight in the tin (they were all eaten by the end).

I did change things a bit. I used a bag of mixed seeds and cheddar instead of parmesan.
