I'd always thought that once you got a blog you had a blog in perpetuity, and could continue to add to it, whether you were a paying member or not. That may have been right at one time, but it isn't now.

I wrote an update yesterday, a few hours after I'd had an email to tell me that my paying membership had expired, and got an "access denied" message. I thought it was a shame to waste it. Off I go...

The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

My angiogram was a hoot - they tried three different catheter sizes before deciding that the third one was Just Right. I'm happy to leave it at one - I can't imagine it's something anyone would consent to if it were not essential. I'm sure mine was filmed, so presumably they all are, and you don't need to have a gratuitous one done when they can watch a film of the one you did have?

I'm very glad it wasn't a meal like that. It's only one step away from the standard school issue packed lunch of a white bread plain cheese sandwich and a rock-hard green apple.

No, you can't have an edit button. All control has now been confiscated. You have to post a correction, as you have just done, or go and grovel to a mod. The proper blogs (bow head and observe a few seconds' silence) were the last bastion of prole control. The only thing we have any control over now is what we put in our profile. And for that may we be truly grateful.

Row, please don't cry! ((((()))))

Lochalsh, I think I'm lub-dub now, except in recovery when I was lub-dub-bonk, and pre-op when I was lubbity-dubbity-splat-hiss-gurgle-pffft. Don't you just love medical jargon?

Lochalsh I meant *were* you, of course. Edit button needed ici.

Lochalsh No Edit button. Member of lumpenproletariat here. How the mighty have fallen.

Are - were - this way you got three answers for the price of one. Us lumpenproles have to stick together. (Less likely to fall that way.)

Lochalsh You're proley right.

Edit buttons only work on password protected areas. That means the old blogs worked as only the member could write theirs, while mods have chat edit buttons, and these are chat threads. The only way to get edit buttons would be giving each member their own board, which sounds to me suspiciously like the old blogs. Pity though.

Lochalsh - *groan* :-D

David, it is a great pity. Yes, we could all go and open blogs in the real world, and they might even have better features - like the sewing machine that can embroider a row of Christmas trees (yes, endlessly useful) - but then we'd be fragmented. Another small victory for the nanny state. We stay here with depleted facilities and no control, or we go off and scatter. What a choice.

VM - isn't she? And J - we all do.

This morning I used the last of the milk in my early-morning cauldron of tea. I have just eaten a slice of bread taken from nearly the end of my last nice Cranks loaf, with a one-egg omelette (guess why) followed by my last orange. The shops are definitely beckoning.

What is a Crank's loaf? Must go and Google now!

Lochalsh No more eggs left? Does that mean a farewell to oms?

Is 'one egg omelette' a euphemism for a scrambled egg? :-D

Eggscuse me, if it weren't so far, I would bring you a dozen of my fresh layed brown eggs.

Lochalsh That calls for a standing ovulation, honeybee!

Reply #1736. Nov 07 10, 10:38 AM

Lochalsh Oops, forgot a question for you, honeybee: Are brown eggs all they're cracked up to be?

(Sorry for the poor yolk. :( )

Done some shopping and look what I've come back to - it's wonderful!

A "one egg omelette" isn't a euphemism for anything. It's what you do when you think eggs would be good but you've only got one left. How sad is that? (I have twelve now.)

Love the groans - please don't stop.
