Hiya Peeps
Just to let you all know I'm still here! I've had unbelieveable troouble with blogger this week!! I couldn't even access my own blog!! I've gone through a million and one things it might be including changing my web browser, contacting Norton and my internet provider, THEN this morning I thought I would go back to the 'old blogger interface' and guess what! It works!! Aaaaarghhhh!! :D
Anyhoo, I have a couple of cards made, so I'm just going to take the pupster for a walkies and I'll be back and can't wait to catch up with you all! I just can't believe it was something so simple and I've been on the new interface for a while and thinking about it, it was always quite slow and often wouldn't let me onto other blogs! Grrrrrrr!
Catcha laters :)

My Lil' Nephew :)

Problems with blogger?

Morning Peeps
I'm having real trouble with blogger at the mo! As you can see I can post a new post, but my blog looks different (the background doesn't show up and the font is different) and I can't access anyone else's blog at all!! Grrrrr! I'm getting really frustrated, I've allowed blocked pop-ups for blogger, but this hasn't made any difference! Oh and I can access my comments so I will be able to read any if you can help me!
Thank you :)
UPDATE: Problem fixed! It was to do with a firewall, took me all blummin' morning to sort it!
