Just for the two ever so patient ladies above,,,

Patience Is A Virtue

Everything comes to those that wait,
If they wait patiently...
If not on time, it may be late,
But comes eventually.
Of course, I may be wrong on this,
Completely out of tune...
But wouldn't it be total bliss,
If SOMETHING happened SOON! ?
Time's getting on, it's flying by,
It's here and then it's gone.
In time, it's bound to make us sigh,
As it goes on and on...
A minute here, a minute there,
An hour fast departs!
That's quite enough to cause despair
And chill the warmest hearts.
I'd like to think that we've a chance
To get things right somehow...
Instead of this sad song and dance,
Why can't we get it NOW! ?
Is it too difficult a task?
So hard it can't be done?
Be PATIENT! ? That's too much to ask!
Am I the only one! ?
Wake up! Get up and on the move!
Sort out this ghastly mess!
Unless we see that you improve,
How can we say, 'God bless! '?
Snap to it! Please! Just sort it out!
There's no time for mistakes!
If you don't start, I'll SCREAM and SHOUT!
So that YOUR patience breaks!

xx <3 <3 :-D

I'm so sorry that this problem is still outstanding, I can appreciate how frustrating this must be for you.

I note from one of your previous emails that you're using Windows Vista and Internet Explorer 8.

Please could you try using google chrome? We don't usually ask members to switch browsers but feel this might be a good solution for you.

I know this isn't ideal, but hopefully this will allow you to use your emoticons in the meantime.

but you CAN use emoticons even if you don't have them!!!

Just use the "codes"

You do not have to be emoticon less in your posts


Close up the spaces between the symbols on the left, and also be sure to leave a space between the last letter of a word (or a comma or full stop), and leave one space between each "emoticon"

I have just realised that they won't show until after you post them!!!
