Gmails Won't Send

[jno]

I frequently get an error message when trying to send a Gmail, specially if it's replying to one:

"Oops... a server error occurred and your email was not sent. (#007)"

Just over the last month or so, and apparently at random. It won't save these emails as drafts, either.

Anyone know what's happening, or what I might do about it? (I have Hotmail and other email accounts but would prefer to use Gmail.)

that's the problem, it's too small so it won't fit the brackets the old one sat on (because we were downsizing from double to single oven - I think we'll revert to double and darn the expense!)

Oh dear jno. Yes keep a double oven!
We are trying to buy hija a flight to Malta on my c/card but as I don't do internet banking I cant confirm the money so hija has had to rush to put the money in her bank and then she can buy it on her card. Oh dear I am that old person that wont be dragged into the 21st century !!

I have an annoying google ad that pops up in my typing space!
Stop the world......

oh dear, man eaten by a dinosaur in Barcelona

Oh deary me. We do get some big lizards here you know! Hija is bsck there at the moment. Lovely day after horrendously stormy and wet one yesterday!

We are reverting back to the 70s here on this island without the drug and fun!! As island dwellers we are entitled to a flight discount to and from the island. Until brexit we ciukd just pri t them off willy kilky free from home. Then we had to go to local office and collect them. I had to produce my residence card and coukd get them for all the family. Now we each have to sign a form giving me permission to get the other form. Now we have to download a qr code and make an Appointment . Easy? No bluddy way. The right option doesn't appear so I book anything just to get in. Then they have a huge discussion because I have booked the next desk. I then proceed to inform them that I have also booked appointments at every damned desk for the next 2 days! Well my god that shook them up. So the man proceeded to process me. I had hija's signed permission and photocopies of her passport and residence card. Good! But he kept them and I need them. Big hassle. He then gives them back and I have to hotfoot to the nearest photocopy shop and get copies! *Deep joy* I finally pay 1€ and get the flight discount paper! Thanks Brexit !

And now my printer is flashing amber and I do not have clue!
Hija's job in Malta has been delayed due to covid restrictions but they have offered her a job in a nearby hotel. Same wages and accommodation!

we have our new oven and it seems to cook Charlie Bigham pies okay, so that's good.

[woofgang]

aaah Charlie Bigham....I would have died of starvation without him until ocado started delivering M and S

[jno]

well, the sunny Saturday they promised didn't happen. So far no sunny Sunday either.

[woofgang]

we have decnt sunshine here and the same yesterday. The torts are FINALLY outside in their pen much to their (and my) relief

[shaneystar2]

Hello all
Sunny Sunday here but as usual on the east coast warm out the back but chilly wind off the sea out the front. Looks set fair for a while now though with less rain at last.
Nothing much to report.Same old really.
Hope you and yours are all well.

Hello Shaney! we are having a quiet casual day here. Its lovely weather but a bit noisy on the garden on account of footballing kids. I don't mind but I don't enjoy it.
Waves to all especially Robi

Morning all. Hija is now in Malta.
I had an terrible attacking vomiting and diarrhoea lasting 30 hrs..felt do bad and no rhyme or reason. Luckily I had already made an app for mexico so they tested me for covid! But I'm ok. Given me some sweet powders to take to rehydrate me. Feel a bit weak so am staying in and taking it easy although have just cleaned and disinfected everywhere!! Was very hot yesterday and thought summer was here but its cooler today
Hope everyone is coping. We are allowing tourists in without a pcr test but with 2 vaccines. I'm sure it'll all end in tears as the tourists wont wear masks!

[woofgang]

sounds like norwalk neti, completely horrible and debilitating. Its a virus so rest and time along with hydration, is the only cure.

[jno]

tut, trust you to get a different virus from everyone else, neti. I hope you're back on your feet soon.

a week or so in and already our new oven is falling apart. The rubber seal round one of the doors fell off. Zanussi is sending someone next Wednesday, touch wood.

[netibiza]

Hello everyone. My updated phone mistypes and it's getting ridiculous. Yes I know I usually mistype so the 2 together makes life very difficult .
How is everyone?
Cant believe your new cooker is coming apart at the seams already jno!
The weather here is strange. Normally I am frolicking in the pool at this time but way too cold atm. And the pool is still empty! Mr N is getting on with the house but is taking a lot of work!
Hija seems ok in Malta but all plans are changed since the British cant get there! I have a feeling she will be home soon!!
Mr N and I have an app with the bank for them to get us an internet banking app on our phones. Nit looking forward to that as I'm not as bright as I was!! And we are not going to use it ever!! I send hija money but use Western Union as my UK bank only gives me a cash card and cannot do transactions. And I dont want Mr N to know most if the time! I want to stay in the past!!
How Mr S and Shaney are ok and Woofy and Rab are in high spirits!. I am over the Norwalk but taking time to get back to normal!!!

looks like summer's over, doesn't it.

jno jnr emailed yeterday with a photo of his ginormous new car. Apparently his medium-size Vauxhall isn't big enough. I can only suppose they're planning half a dozen more grandchildren for us and want a car with its own playground in the boot.

One of these, I think

Ah, how parenting has changed.
