BossLady stopped the flood and I think the bulk of the spam messages are gone. Many hundreds of them!

Feel free to report anything you see so we can smite them down.

The Unread Content page wanted me to log in again, Nae Prob. But when I did I got a screen with a message saying 'Ooops! Try Again'

BUT the All Activity page just worked as normal

All's Well that Ends Well

Remember to use your email address that you use with LW instead of the user/screen name.

I did one of those admin "Log everyone out at once" moves this morning, so that was probably me, but I had to get it to stop. Northmount, Alzilla & Wiz do a great job zapping spammers that get past me, but this morning was an attack. We have things under control again. I am fortunate to have such good help.

@chuck123wapati I do hope  things are improving for you and yours and your daughter is getting better 👍 

I take dad to the local hospital every 2 days to get his dressings changed, and the nurses keep telling me his op site continues to improve.   Being in the bush ,We have a video conference  with plastic reconstruction nurse  at the major hospital in Perth every 2 weeks  , and is looking (cautiously) optimistic  for him .  

Just about to make a pot of soup using ham bone leftovers , it's really cold here atm  , 

You take care friend ,

Your really cold weather is our summer temperatures.

My wife's cousin asked when was the best weather here (Calgary, AB) to visit.  Asked her what her winter temperatures were.  20 to 25 C.  It's never a good time to come here!  (Unless you are coming to Ski or Snowboard.)

Current temperatures over the past few days have run from high of 17C to 30C.  Lows around 9C to 14C.   

We have had snow every month of the year except July.  Banff and the Rogers Pass have had snow every month of the year.  They are just 1 and 2 hours west of us.

Winter here, common daytime highs are from -10C to -20C.  A cold snap is -35C with a strong NW wind, 20 to 60 km/h.

In 1964 while I was attending Tech School here, we had over 30 days of -35F with 30 to 40 mph N and NW winds.  (I'll leave the British units for you to convert.)  That's the coldest I've ever been.  Fort McMurray (10 hours north of here where I worked for 9 years) gets a week or 2 at a time of -40C to -50C.  All vehicles have a block heater, and if you need to be able to jump in your vehicle and head out to handle an emergency (power and utility plant operations crew), the vehicles are left running 24/7.   However, next to no wind, lots of ice fog in the valley.  The wind makes a huge difference.

We do get what we call, some nice weather here.
