    They all looked fine as quotes, which is what I'd expect.

    Lydia and Sue's Sig's are now fine but Gen's and Masomnia's are still !! etc.

    They all look fine to me, as quotes and as sigs.

    Everyone's looks fine to me, too.

    NDG your sig appears to me as:
    !! !! !!!!!! !! !!!!!! w!!!g !h!! !! d! !!, !!d h!pp!!! !! !! !!m!!!m!! !h!!!!d !h!! !!! !! !!!!!.

    This is all very weird.

    “A Nodder is something like a Yes-man, only lower in the social scale. A Yes-Man’s duty is to attend conferences and say “Yes.” A Nodder’s, as the name implies, is to nod. The chief executive throws out some statement of opinion and looks about him expectantly. This is the cue for the senior Yes-Man to say yes. He is followed, in order of precedence, by the second Yes-Man - or Vice-Yesser -, as he sometimes is called- and the junior Yes-Man. Only when all the Yes-Men have yessed, do the Nodders begin to function. They nod. “ - Wodehouse.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Travel chaos this morning although my run in doesn't seem too bad. For others it's a nightmare. All the traffic lights are out along one arterial route into Sydney. Trains are FUBAR'd. I'm gently gliding over the Harbour Bridge without a care on the bus. I really must get back to cycling in.

    There was travel chaos here on Monday. FIr had to get a strange train route to work with changes. I cannot remember why. Probably rain.

    On the forum board, it says that the exclamation marks appeared when they did something to stop the spam attacks and will be rectified, so I was going to wait a day or so to see whether mine came back by itself.

    I use different browsers on my tablet and laptop and get the exclamation marks on both.

    Gen, did you see my post about the Aussie Super recruiting investment people or did that appear as gobbledygook? It's a bit hard to tell who can see what and didn't know if it's useful info for you. Yesterday it was affecting posts and dogs, now it appears to be just digs.

    ETA... I have no idea why sigs appeared in the para above as both digs and dogs, but I'm rather proud of my lir typing. The irony with my tablet is that it auto corrects sig, but I've typed lir so many times that it has been auto added to my tablet.

    Still could be worse... yesterday Capital Radio had a segment on the breakfast show about when auto correct goes wrong. It started with lots of different messages, but then a trend developed... loads of people had fallen foul of the same mistake.. fitness instructors texting their clients and couples wooing had sent texts saying you looked fab, but they had all been auto corrected to you look fat.

    I can see exclamation marks for your sig Viva....but Masomnia's has always looked fine as was NDG's!

    To sort mine, I copied and cut my current sig from my control panel and then pasted it back again.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

    Sue, New sofa sounds lovely. When Josh comes home again are you all going to hide so he momentarily wonders whether he's gone to the wrong house?
