It’s going to take me ages to get used to these different names.

I am weird and apart from the other site now lacking members I missed the drama. It seems nice here though so I will maybe split my time. I am Blitz but wasn't allowed that in here. I have two miniature poodles. Ola and Chloe

Thanks for the reminder, I forgot that's who you are. I really don't know how anyone can stand to post over there, the forum is so slow and constantly bucking and hitching. I just made a post that took 20 minutes to type out and spell check it was so slow. And that is NOT counting searching for the posts I was following up on. The search took way longer.

Would it be confusing if I change my name back to blitz and add a number after it so I can have it. Not able to yet but when I am allowed I could do that

I think the cut-off is 10 posts, which you now have - so go for it!

It says after August 11. I bet I forget.

@ola I know what you mean . Twitter/X is good for drama and you can get away with saying rude things! Starmer certainly knows what I think of him.

We need to start a thread about our memory and how bad it is .

Ah, OK, that's interesting - so that'll be a month after you join. I'll have to try to remember that.....

Oh I'm so pleased I've found someone like me who takes delight in making rude comments on Twitter/X.

I can change mine today apparently but can't work out how to do it

Could it be that you can only change it after 11 August, i.e. tomorrow? If not, try this:

Click on the default avatar at the very top left-hand side of the forum (in the photo below, just above the balloons). When I do that, I get the pop-up in the photo below (click on link). Hopefully, following the instructions there should work - let me know if not!

I think that's to change the photo rather than the username? For username it's the cog wheel, then Account Details.

Oh I'm stupid, ignore me ola! My excuse is that I've walked miles on end - OK, 8 miles - in the heat today. But I have spotted and photographed my first Willow Emerald Damselfly so it was worth it!

Hello! Another migrant from PF (jeez it's quiet over there now!)
I was Sarah H - I have Fly the Lurcher and Bronte the Maligator. I lost my bestest girl Nooka last year and I'm still going through the grieving process. Especially as I'm now stuck with the 2 annoying boys

 

[JoanneF]

It's good to have you here @Sarah k9s , welcome.

 

[SuzyJay]

Welcome Sarah!

I managed to change it but it needs a mod to ok so it so still ola at the moment.

 

[Blitz.]

Looks like my change is not going to happen.

Ola, I think I may be able to do it now - can you remind me what name you wanted please?
