Evening all, finished my Mum’s christmas gift, it’s having a wee bath before it has a wee stretch! It’s a knitted lacework cowl so always good to block something like this to open out the pattern.

Loved all the listings to here, glad to see it’s been another busy day of sales here. None for me but one of my items has made a gift guide.

Here’s another relist, off to run a bath for the kiddo.

I’m having major computer problems today! Thought my laptop was dead and I’d lost the tax return stuff I was working on this morning. I’ve only just managed to get it to switch back on. I had to dig the old glitchy smartphone back out of its drawer to try and get online, but I couldn’t get on the forum (or many other places) without a ā€˜your connection is not secure’ message. And Folksy itself wouldn’t load any of the pictures. I’m thinking I’m going to have to bow out of the thread till I get it sorted, and might put the shop on holiday mode. I’m worried I’ll have trouble fulfilling any sales if I get them. I’ve managed to :heart: up to here!

So Merry Christmas to all of you who are taking time off, and I hope to be back asap. What a pain computers are!!

@TheHermitsBothy …I hope you get sorted…I have a fear of this sort of thing happening to me, as I don’t have a clue how to sort out any problems I am already worried that from October next year, google will no longer support Windows 10 and if there is a problem I will have to give up the work that I love…i have 10 months so hope that something or someone will be able to help me. I have only just bought my first smart phone and can’t even swipe a phone call without cutting the caller off…lol… Are there any nice people on here who can tell me whether it is possible to use my folksy shop ( selling and listing) just by using my phone?..I have a few months to try to learn it…and will keep going for as long as my ancient laptop works…I doubt if I could afford a new one…xx

I know what you mean Brenda @teabreaks. I help my mum with tech stuff all the time, although I’m pretty rubbish at it myself! I actually got a new (not new) refurbished laptop that arrived this morning. I got it on ebay, and managed to haggle him down to Ā£115. So it’s possible to get one without spending megabucks. It’s from 2019, so newer than the 2015 one I have now, but I didn’t want a fancy one. But I can’t get online with it because the ethernet cable doesn’t seem to work! I have no wifi in the ā€˜bothy’ (garden shed), so I have to find out what the problem is there before I can do much with it. There’s nothing straightforward!

@TheHermitsBothy …I wouldn’t know how to even set up a new laptop…second hand or new
and what about all my thousands of photos that are all in monthly albums. (Yes they are saved on a picture keeper but NOT in monthly folders.)…then someone would have to come and install office word for me and connect me up to my wireless printer…the thought of it all fills me with horror…anyone want to buy 500 paintings?..lol…x

I think you’ve identified a niche in the market Brenda! There must be loads of work available for tech-savvy people who can sort these things out for people. They’d need to be trustworthy though and not steal all your data, which seems to be a bit of a problem for people these days! :neutral_face:

Good morning!

Please add a sell to my name @SueTrevor :dancer::dancer::dancer:

Today I am
Mainly taxi service (unpaid) ! :woman_facepalming::joy::joy::joy:

Sharing another clip on tassel which makes for a great sticking filler, small gift or secret santa. I have 4 different ones on sell.

I have one on my everyday handbag and love it! Perfect for sensory seeking people as I will fiddle with mine while shopping all the time!

Morning all

Doing a lot of planning for 2025 and enjoying the downtime. Seems our sorting office has got itself sorted, according to an email, proof in the pudding as no deliveries yesterday apart from a parcel. Our MP got involved also had an email from him about the delays. Not on at Christmas.

Happy dance for your sales and hugs if under the weather.

Good morning everyone.
Got MOT at 8 this morning. I hate waiting for the result. My car is 15yrs old now, got it when it was 18 months old (makes it sound like a baby :joy:) It’s always sailed through but I still get nervous as there’s going to be a time…
