    Was it an extra badge?

    If so, don't know which one, though!

    Also, does whatever it is show up on the green format, 'cos that's what I'm on.

    For those of you on the blue/white format, you're missing out on my seasonal blackbird avatars, as the blue format is only showing my original one! :(

    Yes, I can see it with the green format. If you look at what badges she's got, and the comments that michaels and I have made, you'll be able to work out which it is. :)

    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.     :)

    Congrats silver. You'll be great at it.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    This one - with three other guides, none of whom has posted on here any time recently, and two of whom have sigs that mention that they're guides for some other boards on which they are active, and don't mention this one.

    Also In my home (includes DIY) MoneySaving where she's been given a public welcome by one of the existing guides.

    Any others, silvercar??

    A little (a very very little) cyberstalking indicates that our silvercar volunteered for 7 boards and has been appointed to 6 of them:

    1. Student Money Saving
    2. Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning
    3. In my home (includes DIY) MoneySaving
    4. House Buying, Renting & Selling
    5. Mortgages & Endowments
    6. Debate House Prices & the Economy

    Today, for me, Chrome on XP is behaving bizarrely and it's not good.

    Say I have 3 tabs open - and I want to flit between them. Each time I have to wait for the whole lot to reload from scratch again. Not handy if you're copying/pasting stuff, or generally flitting from tab to tab.

    I just loaded my family tree on there. I wanted to click on the grandparent of the "starting person when this tree is loaded". Usually, having clicked, it stays there - now, each time I change tabs and go back, it takes me back to the beginning point and I have to click on that person again.

    So this is causing me varying degrees of annoyance across every website I am visiting.

    Is it me? Is it the Internet? Is it my PC? Or Chrome? Or what?
    I hope it fixes itself by magic soon.

    It's your PC telling you to replace it. It's been hinting for ages, and it's decided to step up the pressure.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Umm don't see anything in Silver's test message about her being a board guide. Is that because I use Chrome?
