What are you all up to

Millie

Depends what you are using. On a Windows system its fairly simple you just press Ctrl+F5 together. I am nor sure on Android or Apples but suspect you have to go into the browser you use and go into settings?

Correct David.  I usually clear the cache on my Mac via the browser, but I haven't done that for ages and millie's new avatar turned up the other day without any intervention from me.

Hi Millie. If you are using Safari (Apple) then you should have a top strap line with things like "Edit View History etc." on it. Click on history and clear it all. You may have to put in your details again to login. I've cleared my history (only 2 short days worth) and your new avatar has appeared. 

Things moving along slowly here although we seem to get to the end of the day very quickly, if that makes any sense.  More scans for MiL next week plus a meeting with staff. 

An hour or so sorting out Mrs.WNs car insurance. It seems to confuse insurers and comparison websites if you have a shared email address, shared driving experience and almost similar renewal dates. Hope it all sorts itself out in the wash. ended up paying about 20% more than last year.

I can see your new avatar MH

Horrible day again today, yesterday was lovely and we spent a good few hours in the garden. 

Busy today sorting out various electronic devices 😡 why is nothing simple anymore. 

Can't get the Chromecast to connect to any of our TV'S.😔

OHs phone will connect to the main TV via Miracast no problem but the 2 traveller TV's we have it won't and neither will the Chromecast. It has to be on the same WiFi network as the phone/laptop but it just won't connect to it.

Oh well we have got round it another way but annoying that it doesn't work. The Fire stick on the other hand is easy and works well with all TVs. 

Why are we doing all this, well when we go east this year we will be out of Astra 2  satellite signal. So if we get some bad weather I want to be able to watch a film or something. All sorted now. Good selection of Dvds and portable harddrive+ the Fire stick. Should think that will be enough to keep me happy 😆

Ferry now booked Dover- Calais return. Still not 100% sure where we are going as usual we have several plans but the weather will be our guide.

We are away for the week in the Cotswolds, a beautiful converted milking parlour on a farm just outside Dursley. Although the area is quite close to home we haven't spent a lot of time there recently. Walked from the nearby village of Uley this morning - had forgotten just how steep the hills can be round here! 

Stopped for coffee at the Coaley Peak picnic area which has stunning views over the Severn.

Weather has turned quite (very) wet this evening though. 

Enjoy your time in the Cotswolds, Moulesy. The weather this morning looks much better then up here.

We woke to a misty drizzly morning which changed to heavy rain around 2:30 this afternoon. We drove up to the NT's Ash Landing carpark, close to the Lake Windermere Ferry, and had a damp walk along by the lake. After lunch we visited Hill Top, Beatrice Potter's cottage at Near Sawrey. We have passed it often but I had never been inside before. Most interesting with very helpful and knowledgeable guides.

Here are a few atmospheric photos across the lake

One of my most favourite places Nellie. We stay in the beautiful B&B next door to Hill Top, we have booked to go there again later this year. Such a lovely little village. Love the little pub there as well. We have a painting in our dining room of the main room at Hill Top, it’s an exact replica of the room, there were no more paintings available of the print run but OH managed to contact the artist and get one from him as a surprise Christmas present some years ago.

Clearing your history should do it.

....Millie... if you are using android phone, the way I do it is

1.  Go to Google search engine
2. Click in the 3 vertical dots on the top right of the screen.
3. Click on 'Clear browsing history' and choose 'More Options'.  You can then choose which part of the 'history' you want to clear.  Just make sure 'Cached Images and files' has a tick against it..... untick the other options (unless you wish to clear these as well).
4. Then tick 'Clear Data' at the bottom of the page.

Each phone may be slightly different, but this is what I do....  Hope this helps....

David

Thank you DSB. I will give that a go.
