Packs quite a punch!

This is actually quite nice in person as it is also very wearible also.

Did they just start asking for people to sign in. before one could just start talking. must have changed in the last two days.

I think this signing in business sort of comes and goes, but normally I find I can just start, or somehow navigate around it, as it is such a nuisance. With Facebook I also normally just start, but occasionally they ask one to sign in. I think this must be dependent on something technical I don't understand.

Hi Linda,

we have made no changes here.

If you have run a cleaner on your pc your cache is sometimes cleared of passwords , this means you need to re sign in for some sites?

Also for security some sites may ask you to sign in on a monthly or quarterly basis.

If the problem continues let me know, and I shall ask the ning tekkies

Warm wishes

Sarah

Hi Linda, Is this still or a similar design still available? My birthday is in 10 days ;-)

Hi no this was sold years ago! Have not had one like this since.. sorry.. I have a simple one with a box that is from tashkent for sale.

I've seen these a bit smaller and always loved the shape. Mumtaz had one for years (and perhaps still does), but I always felt the price was too high for that certain piece....

Hi, I think I might have gotten this from him,, he had several. And yes they were always expensive, never inexpensive.
