Thanks for the invite Maureen. It enabled me to join the 'group', but can't see any link or click to the 'event'. But, good enough.
I agree that it is difficult (recall my rant), but I want to stay in touch with all you wonderful gals, and I can just forget about the stuff that's too challenging for me...at least for now.

Thank you all for your birthday wishes. I am going out in half an hour for a family birthday party and to let off Chinese Lanterns at the end but I will be back in time to greet you all to Scotland and our party.

I hope Wendy remembers the fireworks!!!

Terrie, I went into the group to see if there was somewhere to invite people and invited you but that might have just been to the group?? I couldn't find anything about invitation to the event. Maybe Wendy as administration could send out blank invites.

I don't go on the forum much anymore as it is such a bad website that I keep getting lost and taking far too much time looking for simple things. It is like a labyrinth. What happened to the old saying - if it is not broke, don't fix it!!!!!

I might have a minute to pop in tonight to say Happy Birthday to Maureen, and see you all, but I can't see how to join the event. So, like Lois, I will be going through the forum for any activity tonight. Happy New Year!

Good morning, just logged on. Have you heard from technical support regarding problem in Group? If not, please let me know what the problem is so I can report directly to Bob.

Thanks,
Kathy

Hummmm? I'll be watching to see what comes of it all.....

Marilyn, Nancy was using Foxfire on her home computer. I am using Foxfire too. I sent messages to Technical Support. I will be posting from the Forum at least until I hear back from them.

Lois and Nancy....running Firefox...no troubles with group section. Got to the party fine
but no comments there.

Happy birthday, Maureen!

I thought I would get to play with the group a bit, but we decided on a last minute trip to the Pembroke Coast in Wales.

Happy new years everyone!

Just heard from Nancy/rehak by email. She went to the event page for Maureen's party punched a button and got that same Error Message she and I got when we were first exploring groups. Both of us have emptied our caches and still can't return to the cite using those browsers. That's Nancy's work computer. Now the same thing has happened on her home computer. She has emptied her cache on her home computer and she cannot access the site from that browser either. Apparently, there are still problems with the group software. So I will be wishing Maureen a Happy Birthday from the Forum. I will be posting my selfie from the Forum. I want to relax when I come to TQS so for the most part I will be staying away from groups. Now to the sewing room and the binding.

I am almost ready. Going to start binding as soon as I finish my morning coffee and get dressed. I think there is some confusion about how to get to Maureen's party. I had trouble finding the respond button for the event until after Rita sent me a link. One of our CW, original group, went there and could not find a join button so I went back to the event place. Where I had found the Respond button from Rita's link there was now an invite button which makes me think this is an invitation only kind of place. Is that what was intended? I sent her an invite.

Happy Birthday Maureen see you all when I get home from work for our new year and Maureen
Party and quilt reveal

That's what my boys will be saying now

My mom makes those every Christmas but we call them almond crescents.
