This isn't fair!

No Frise, it's custom made of course because of the slits for my ears - which then handily keep it firmly in place!

Many thanks, very kind of you - got my golfing advert on successfully after two attempts - you have to work fast ! I also tried yesterday and failed miserably at the first hurdle - don't give up !! It is 4 weeks renewable which is a pretty good offer as long as it lasts.

My signature refers to the M25 thread Frise BTW; here if you haven't seen it folks (forgive momentary topic creep but I'm being a bit shellfish - gotta get something out of this, if not a free ad!) http://tinyurl.com/2ovj4a LMH needs your opinions and your vote.

Now, back to topic - what's your secret everyone, am I the only person getting text (theirs, not mine) overlay on the ST site, and unable to enter my own? Techies - hellllp!!

Glad some of you have been able to do it - I had problems on my pc - using firefox. I think it might be better in ie though in the end I had to get my husband to do it on a work pc. No idea why it does not format properly on some pcs - I have the same prob at the moment with HR layout coming up weirdly too.
Btw my husband said he thought I was bonkers to share the info but wth - I've had plenty of useful tips from LMHatters and its nice to give a bit back eh..

Appreciated Memes - once I can actually benefit! Glad to know it wasn't me with that formatting problem. I'll try on someone else's computer...

I expect you told your husband we're not directly competing so there isn't an issue - it's sharing who my best listing sites are with my SW France neighbours that I think twice about now!

Er I did mention to him that there weren't that many LMHatters in our part of italy so didn't think it would really ruin our business tee. I will laugh when I see the no of pages in the travel section next week has doubled though. Fingers x'd they dont get all cocky and change the free deal..
Good luck everyone..

Now, does anyone know when the online version actually appears? Mine's not there yet so wondered if it's Sunday, at same time as the print ad. I don't remember seeing anything about a publication date...

I've given up, it didn't work on Firefox at all and in IE it keeps giving me a pay package which I don't want, despite the fact I've only got 3 lines. Thanks for the tip, though!
