Oh & happy new VC 

Thanks beanie Oh, it turns out we can't do multiquotes either Good grief, this is terrible ...

Madvix, RT - yep, because of my vac cleaner trip, by the time I got home, I had about 35 notifications of single posts!  Managed to log on, change password and then go to my profile to stop the notifications.  I've never *had* notifications, so its obviously a default.  Awful, but at least there's a way to stop it.  The lack of a "latest post" link means that the effort to get from thread to thread is considerable - really stops the experience from being enjoyable.  Though it was reported straight away, thats something.  I've never seen such a bad "update".

Anyway, I'm off to bed, that was quite a day sleep well all.

My phone is driving me mad - no digests it seems, so constant email notifications that someone has posted on a thread! Aargh! Thirded that they get it sorted soon.

If you log on via a pc, you can turn off all the notifications!  Took me about 15 minutes to find it earlier today, while my e-mail box filled with notifications!  Couldn't find this option on my mobile though!

You can go into your profile and amend your notifications to turn off email and just leave it so you can see the threads you want to (ones you have commented on or people you have favourited) in notifications.
You can multi quote by clicking quote against all the posts you want to multi-quote like this one.
Other bits You can also edit using the settings symbol top right of your post but I have not seen an option to delete your own post. Can't find :eek: though or sad or embarrassed emojis - I did find a paste-possible birthday cake emoji on google search, so others may be there. Bit different though, isn't it!
Edit to say, my signature is July 2019 - off to find the one I saved in case to update it...

If you’re on a phone/tablet with an emoji keyboard the possibilities are endless!

Thanks SL, will miss my daily digests though... a bit of a backward step there. Greenbee that’s good to know... but I’ve often felt my phone needed the :eek: ! 😂 At least we can still have a ☕️ and  🎂 though!

Will this do? 😱

themadvix

Haha, yes, although that kind of sums up how I feel about the forums! And I'm replying on computer (because I came to turn notifications off), so no access to decent smileys! 
Sorry Karma, how's your day going?

This link is good for emojis on computers 🍻

I've discovered that the "Window" plus a full stop brings up emojis that are embedded in my (work) laptop! What's better than ☕ & 🍰? Definately 🍣 & 🍱!!! (Thanks to my adopted little sister at work who proudly showed me what she's accomplished when I asked if she'd finished her paperwork for the deadline! - Cheeky little thing 💖)
Love a good work-around ladies!!! Ha ha - #notaluddite

Thanks Suffolk Lass, I found the multiquote!  Why don't they tell us stuff like this?  I'm glad you told us and I'm lurving the emoji!

#not a luddite 😺 

I've been out to the town next door to collect my new brushed cotton pillowcases (and the free double duvet, ha!)   Originally on sale for £35, and I paid £16.80, which I'm very pleased at.  They have a Wilko there too, and I bought a 100% cotton sheet, for £8 bless them.  Very happy, but really, really tired, so I'm only just waking up again, oops.  Just popped out before it got properly dark to saw in half a branch of wood that was sticking up out of the green bin - if Ciara strikes during the night, I can see the bin tipping over, which wouldn't be fun.  So I managed to nick myself slightly with the saw (embarrassed smiley): cue water, soap and water and disinfectant, plus tissue.  I think I'll live. 

Sad to see the Latest Post thing on my "bookmarks" still isn't working - its a lot of faffing about to get to the end of a thread    This is my home on the interwebulator, and it feels like somebody changed the locks and gave me a key that doesn't really fit, and now I've found they took most of the furniture and put itching powder in my bed.  Hey ho.
