Your choice, Lewis Smile

Yay for my wool finally arriving safely! I'm sure my knitter will create something beautiful.

In memory of Mia, my red-headed Little Squeak. xx

Lewis - your squares are absolutely gorgeoise! You really are very clever!

Now there is a weird thing going on with my PM box

I have received messages and it has let me send this morning, and I have opened all, but the bloomin red light is still on! I can't see any I've missed! Confused

This is a new one!

Unless someone is sending me invisible PMs, I have no idea what is going on.

Knotty - I have reported myself this time, because I need to check that all PMs are showing up properly although I imagine this is just a randomly weird thing. Reporting this post..

MNHQ - my last PM was Bluebell99 Mon 12-Mar-12 23:10:32
Please can you to check if there are any unread PMs before that time. Sorry to be a pain again Sad

Off to work this morning, but back at lunchtime
Thanks

KnottyLocks · 13/03/2012 07:18

This is happening here too. Also reporting.

MNHQ, I can open my Inbox via this site but it says there are no unread messages BUT the red light is still on.

When I go to my email, it shows I have a new message. I can open and read it via my email BUT once I've read it, I still can't see it in my Inbox on the latest 20 PM page. HOWEVER the red light has gone off Confused

HELP!

Thanks

I'm not sure what to do. I ordered four balls from Fingers and Thumbs on 1st March, sent an e.mail Tuesday or Wednesday last week and put a message on their (mobile) phone on Saturday. I have heard absolutely nothing. I have seven squares and a bit of wool left over.

What shall I do?

RatherBeOnThePiste · 13/03/2012 07:21

aaarrrrrrgggghhhh!!!

MNHQ
OK so a PM from the lovely PlasticFlamingo arrived just now that was sent at 2.12am. It has literally just got here. I thought that was it, but I've opened it and the light is still on!

So my last PM was PlasticFlamingo Tue 13-Mar-12 02:12:38

RatherBeOnThePiste · 13/03/2012 07:23

Have we broken it again MNHQ?

Sorry Knots - didn't see you your post

KnottyLocks · 13/03/2012 07:26

Oma, will get back to you in a min, if you can hange on. Smile

PIstey, read messages via your email, Open them directly not the whole inbox.

MNHQ, I've also got a delay. Pistey has just sent me a message that I can see via email but not see when I open my inbox via here.

Her previous message has just turned up. Confused

DutchOma · 13/03/2012 07:27

Am hanging on Grin

tribpot · 13/03/2012 07:28

Knotty, I'll be around for the next hour if you need me to send any PMs but it sounds like the problem is more you not having received them.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 13/03/2012 07:28

They will boot us off MN Knots Confused

I've just sent you another PM, don't know why, you'll probably get it this evening Grin

My red light is on, and I don't have any emails. Yet. One PM has just turned up that was sent at 2am, so maybe they will just arrive in the fullness of time?

RatherBeOnThePiste · 13/03/2012 07:30

Oma - I would keep ringing. I am happy to phone for you too when I get home at lunchtime? I have your name and address so could do that maybe?

So sorry you are having this problem x

KnottyLocks · 13/03/2012 07:30

Pistey, I got it but can't see it via MN. I can read it via email though Confused

I've reported and asked MNHQ to look at this thread for info about the problems.

OP posts:
KnottyLocks · 13/03/2012 07:31

Pistey, check your phone Smile

OP posts:
KnottyLocks · 13/03/2012 07:32

Oma, did you get a confirmation email from F&T?

OP posts:
KnottyLocks · 13/03/2012 07:35

Trib, I've sent you a PM.

Can you tell me if you have any problems getting it? I'm checking to see if it's just us or not.

OP posts:
RatherBeOnThePiste · 13/03/2012 07:39

I bet it's just us Knotty

RatherBeOnThePiste · 13/03/2012 07:40
KnottyLocks · 13/03/2012 07:43

Oma, have sent you a 'testing' PM. Can you tell me if you get it ok?

Thanks.
