    Is it just me or is anyone else having a problem with invalid threads?

    I had lots of threads bookmarked ready, but now I keep getting this message

    Can't stand the first few days sorting out which to 'red x' and which to stick with. Plenty rubbish out there but a few good ones.

    Also missing

    Bering, Outdoors Magic, Spy Equipment, Kwik-Fit (not surprising seeing as they're letting a lot of office staff go), Garmin, Virgin Wines and looks like Trusted Watch aren't doing one this year.

    from what I can figure out, they mainly seem to be threads that have been merged with others due to duplication..
    Anchor yourself to the foundations of everything you love.

    Thank you to all those who post competitions!:beer:
  • I love the advents & always use MSE. But it's like wading through treacle this year with the links not opening in a new page, I'm not computer savvy at the best of times, but this is really slowing me down...... anyone else frustrated by this?
