She would be 366 today and is the Google doodle of the day. Somehow you are linking to the Google home page.

Another site I frequent on here (Firefox)has gone all tits up in me now, which is most odd. confused:

It won't let me post smileys or quote previous posts, and when I check me post before posting it, it's got loads of computer type gobblydegook language at the beginning and end of every sentence.
What could I have done to gub it you reckon? Banghead

Taking longer to load up here now than it was last week, but I reckon it's this end, not the VP end.

My PC seemed to be getting slower and s  l  o  w   e    r....  evil:

I thought those bastards at Micro$oft had done something to encourage me to upgrade to Win10 - but NO!  eeek:

Turned out to be FireFox gobbling (*snigger*) up all the CPU cycles...  evil:

So, I changed to (64-bit) Chrome and teee-daaaaah! Speedy-fast-quick again!  cloud9:

Chrome just seems to work on every platform and all the others want to hog all the processing power and memory.

That is kindof what I am thinking.... I have Chrome on the laptop and phone...

If the new FF has made (as is claimed) a huge leap in performance I'm sure Google will catch up soon...
