RMweb works pretty well on a desktop computer, but I've found that it's painfully slow on a tablet unless you request the desktop site be served. Are the problems due to tablet formatting code?

Seems to work perfectly well on the Mac but at times it is very slow although that does seem to vary considerably according to which part of the forum you are looking at - layout topics going really fast, r-t-r threads creeping along.   I wonder if that sort of thing tells a story?

I have kept away for a while hoping things would get better. Today I have had topic pages load in 2 seconds while a custom activity stream took 39 seconds. Perhaps the delays will let me post better things; there is plenty of time to ponder what to write.

On further investigation, I'm beginning to wonder whether this video is the cause of some 'unexpected behaviours' that I'm experiencing. Specifically, posting replies seems to result in a 'hang' whereby the post goes through, but the screen doesn't refresh. Seen on both iOS (which doesn't show the video, although it's presumably still downloaded) and MacOS (which does).

@AY Mod, is this a known issue? The screen hanging on post, I mean.

I've not seen that specifically but it's reasonable to assume it's a symptom of the ad-loading. 

This is my favourite Christmas movie, and it's not even out yet

Die hard, best ever Christmas film.

Die Hard is a great film set at Christmas.

And jpeg and JPEG are exactly the same format too.

Your refund will be in the denomination of unicorn droppings.

Easier than getting a refund from Norwegian or Ryan air.

I turned 50 recently and can assure you all that I still have no more sense than when I was 20!

Its not the being a parent of a baby at 50 that's an issue, its being the parent of a stroppy teenager at 65 that would concern me.

If you look like that you don't need any sense?

Not this week...

Have you seen the forecast?

Yeah, well he wrote that donkeys' years' ago, before global warming.

It only hurts when sitting down. 

I killed many off by forgetting to feed them - then had to hatch a new one to keep my son happy.

It was a relief when my daughters grew out of it. Come to think of it, it was during that time when my youngest first showed signs that she’s not cut out for motherhood. 

Yes, there have been some quite amusing clips released of the Queen making Zoom calls, and clearly enjoying it.

Sad that of its self, it would have been a very good chance for an in family joke. 

It appears that, despite her move to IT and Zoom, Betty will still nip down to the post office should you wish:

The noise from the things can be irritating enough.

However, at this time of year, a constant barrage of Arctic blasts can be most unwelcome.

I got a metal lapel badge when they first issued them, and rather than "buy" another each year, I've always dropped my usual donation into a collecting box in my local supermarket. This year, both the local Tesco and Morrisons had collecting tables so given the circumstances, I doubled up my contribution.

Wear your poppy with pride!

Donated on-line this year.

If this weather continues,that’ll be sufficient to deter them

No, not that long ago. It was yesterday, or possibly today.

Couldn't find anything from then, have you checked behind your monitor?

RMweb is leaking into the bit bucket again.....
