I am taking advantage of being 7 hours behind GMT to start this week's new blog posts :)

Starting with my comforting, yet decadent Chunky Vegetable Chili with Dark Chocolate

Perfect for a chilly autum evening meal and it was a huge hit with both the adults and the kid in my house. I hope you all enjoy it as well.

Looking forward to your blog posts everyone!

I've been having that issue too Mesdames L & G

FlamingoBingo · 19/10/2011 17:20

Mine does that too! #mmgsblog

MmeLindor. · 19/10/2011 17:26

Just with MmeG's blog or with others?

I thought it was just coincidence, but it seems not.

FlamingoBingo · 19/10/2011 17:29

Thought it was just her's, but going to check now.

FlamingoBingo · 19/10/2011 17:30

Well the four before hers didn't when I tried it just now, so yes, just MmeG's

MmeLindor. · 19/10/2011 17:30

I just clicked on MmeG's blog again, and it was fine.

It is ok with other blogs.

FlamingoBingo · 19/10/2011 17:32

Fine for me now too - but it's definitely done it before on hers for me, enough for me to notice, anyway.

MmeGuillotine · 19/10/2011 17:42

Oops, sorry! I think it might be because my blog is with Wordpress but is forwarded onto its own URL so when you click the link it takes you to Wordpress and then a split second later readjusts itself. If that makes sense? :)

FlamingoBingo · 19/10/2011 17:44

Ah, maybe...but why would that freeze our whole screens?

MmeLindor. · 19/10/2011 17:52

It is not a problem, I was just wondering if it was just me.

It is not just the tab, it is the whole PC. I cannot do anything for about a minute or two.

I just asked Dave and he isn't sure but tried out the link in a few browsers and reported there was a problem with the redirect when used in conjunction with Safari, which I wouldn't see as I use Safari but never click on links to my blog.

MmeGuillotine · 19/10/2011 18:10

He says he is going to look at it for you and I'll report back and fix anything that needs fixing! Thanks for letting me know!

FlamingoBingo · 19/10/2011 18:16

I use Chrome, MmeG if that knowledge is of any use to you/Dave

MmeLindor. · 19/10/2011 18:17

I use Chrome too

PetiteRaleuse · 19/10/2011 18:22

Another Chrome user here..

MmeGuillotine · 19/10/2011 18:24

He tried it on Chrome and says it was fine for him but is now thinking about it so will hopefully come up with something. :)

MmeLindor. · 19/10/2011 18:38

MmeG
I have tried clicking on several posts that you linked to on this thread and it doesn't happen. Will close the browser and re-open to see if that makes a difference.

MmeGuillotine · 19/10/2011 18:41

Thanks! I'm a fearful luddite really but D is usually pretty good at fixing stuff. :)

MmeLindor. · 19/10/2011 18:46

Nope, didn't make any difference. It is so irritating when you say, "this doesn't work" and then it DOES.

Damn you, technology.

Tomisinathewitchescat · 19/10/2011 19:15

My goodness you have all been busy blogging! This is another costume idea from me a pirate this time

FlamingoBingo · 19/10/2011 19:19

It's like when you go to the doctors and you suddenly get better Grin

JoanneMallon · 19/10/2011 19:36

I have blogged about what it takes to be a birth partner these days . And also the chocolate giveaway is still running until the 28th, hope you've all entereed.

GraceWhoIsTired · 19/10/2011 20:08

Like the sound of a chocolate giveaway...

Witchthis · 19/10/2011 20:35
