Lo and Behold it kept me logged in, however, I prefer to use Chrome so I uninstalled Chrome and re-installed it. Bingo, everything seems to be ok now,touch wood. I imagine it...

    Getting Logged Out

    I've been having the same problem for a few months now Carolina. Ever since I joined the site I always stayed logged in. I don't know the cause, or why it started happening, but it's no problem to log in, I'm just curious as to the cause. I'm running Chrome on windows 10 desktop. I have never...

    Programme For Letter Writing

    I use Libre Office and I have done for ages and it does everything I need, which I admit is not a lot. There is also google documents though I have never tried it.

    385 Brookvale Road, Erdington

    Not really, I know she was in a small room, thats all. My mother did all the organising. I imagine they had a dining room where they all went. TBH, I never took much notice at the time. Mom tried to get her closer to home but there wasn't anywhere I presume. I was driving at the time so I was...

    Paulo76. I think I got the name wrong, I was probably thinking of Highcroft Hospital. Just looked on nans death certificate but it doesn't say the name of the place. I remember visiting her 3 or 4 times before she died.

    385 Brookvale Road, Erdington

    I think the place you are looking for was on the corner of George Rd and Brookvale Rd. I can't think what it was called. My nan resided there due to dementia and she died in 1968. It looks as if houses have took its place now. Its the building next to Lakeside Walk.

    Getting Logged Out

    Its just started to happen to me over the last few days. It keeps my username and password ok, but it removes the tick from ..stay logged in... So I have to tick that every time I want to log in. Not much of a problem, but after all these years of being permanently logged in, I just got used to it.

    Site link: Birmingham History Webring

    Came across this site whilst surfing and generally messing about. https://web.archive.org/web/20060205160414/https://www.birminghamhistory.co.uk/ It appears to be under construction so it may change in future. The year is 2006 when you click on the link. Might be worth keeping an eye on. This...
