Hi, Rusty!
Yes, all is well up north, thank you.
My cousin has just returned from a week's holiday in St Anne's, near Blackpool.
She enjoyed the change of surroundings.
Now...surprise...I have received another communication from Outlook!
I wonder why their service engineers send their communications so late at night?
It is not encouraging...we appear to be back to Square One.....
It is a case of "let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth".......
This latest engineer (it is a different one each time!) does not appear to have read any of the previous exchanges, has totally the wrong end of the stick....and is talking rubbish!
Fortunately, my daughter is coming over next weekend, and will help me transfer everything to another email address.
I am so annoyed though!!!

Good morning, Elle!
A fine morning here!
I know of St Anne's golf courses.
The Open is played at Royal Lytham and St Anne's from time to time.
Speaking of golf, one of my favourites, Lexi Thompson, won at the weekend!
Outlook customer services appear to be very incompetent.
It may not be late at night wherever their service engineers are, though?
Have you replied to their latest message?
Escaping Outlook would be a good idea, I think?
Has your daughter any suggestions as to a new email client?
