OK I accept the fact that I'm thick.....but I have (very rudely) forgotten who sent me the brownie leggings just after Christmas

I've tried searching on Brownies, brownie, brownie leggings...my nickname, my christmas nickname.

I can't find it....can anyone help....[insert pleading smiley]

have tried but no luck

Jan will find it

Can't imagine it could be deleted

HunkerMunker · 01/03/2005 22:21

Was it on a wanted/for sale/swap topic?

KatieMac · 01/03/2005 22:22

Can't remember - I was very kindly given them and not even asked for postage.

A beautiful card was enclosed and I wondered if I could buy/order some from the M/Ner involved.

They are just what I need

don't think the archived threads are working properly atm

KatieMac · 01/03/2005 22:23

Ah...that could be the reason - I thought I was being daft

I've been hunting for you as best as I can - can't find anything to give any clues. Good luck with your search. x

HunkerMunker · 01/03/2005 22:48

I've not found it either - very strange. Can you post a thread that says 'thank you for the Brownie leggings' and explain that they're wonderful?

tech · 01/03/2005 23:54

Hello KatieMac,
The powers that be (aka they who must be obeyed aka the three witches) did decide in their wisdom that "for sale" and "wanted" stuff should disappear after a couple of weeks. This probably went away as part of the great purge. I'll find this and put it back.
Regards,
Tech

Wow - I love this site more each - day a techie that not only works daft hours , but it open to suggestions and helps people out ...........now at least one other baby website could learn a few lessons from him

charleypops · 02/03/2005 00:01

Is tech a him? Just wondering, always seems to be referred to as a him, but is he?

Are you?

Nosey aren't I?

JanH · 02/03/2005 00:08

Tech is not only a him but, according to those who have met him, a very gorgeous him

He is also nice and very funny (he posts on random threads occasionally as well as site stuff).

(Can I have my £5 now please tech?)

charleypops · 02/03/2005 00:09

Oo really! Young Maan!

Thanks!

tech · 02/03/2005 00:41

That thread is
here

This should be searchable (along with the rest) from tomorrow.

Tech

Thank you so much...I didn't mean to cause any problems.

Searching archive Doesn't work for me, what am I doing wrong?

I tried (for instance) to search for the word "the" in the title of education threads (under search archived threads). Returned no Results.... either with no date or a date of (since) 28 January 2000, returned no results.

Can anyone else do it?

SaintGeorge · 04/05/2005 12:29

Working fine.

That particular search returns 32914 messages

zebraX · 04/05/2005 12:33

Could you do me a favour, then, search for the word "fund" and give me any links for threads that have ideas for fundraising for a school or preschool? Else I'm going to start a thread about it, but I wouldn't bother if there is otherwise an existing thread.

Search never works for me, not even on differnet computers, so irritating...!

SaintGeorge · 04/05/2005 12:36

one sec

zebraX · 04/05/2005 12:37

Bless you!

Baking for fundraising

SaintGeorge · 04/05/2005 12:42

That looks like it. Haven't read any of them so don't know how useful.

Searched 'fundraising', 'fund' gets all the stuff about child trust fund vouchers.

zebraX · 04/05/2005 12:58

That's so nice of you, many many thanks

SaintGeorge · 04/05/2005 13:01

No problem
