Hi Sliema2,

....and where did you manage to purchase your Kinnie 'oop north'? We've been drinking some we bought back last year (36 cans!) over the Christmas period but are running out fast! can't make the Magic Isle for the forseeable future due to recent personal health problems but sure would like to be able to buy some more kinnie. I really think it's sad and shortsighted of the major soft drink manufacturers not to make this brill drink under license here in the UK!

Hi Pondskater,

Nice to hear from you and I really wish I'd have met you at the Coastline. I hope I can be 100% soon - but that's really in the lap of the gods!!!!!

Question: You've been to Malta and don't know what my mate Sliema2 & myself are talking about when we mention Kinnie?

I think it's time you went back to find out about this unique softdrink (what an excuse!), which I am quite happy to drink by the pint - instead of beer (especially if I'm driving!!!),

Take care,

Trev

Hi Trevor, sorry to hear that you haven't been well I really hope that you get well as soon as, and that you can make it over to your beloved Malta before to long, the Kinnie we bought at the airport in November, we stashed it in the beer fridge and forgot all about it until now, any way mate take care and god bless, and if you ever feel the need to talk pm me in confidence and I will reply likewise.

Regards
Sliema2

Hi Sliema2,

I was rather hoping you'd come up with a decent supplier of Kinnie but alas not so! Please check your PMs cause I've sent you one (though I'm never sure if it's actually gone!). Please let me know if not,

Hi Sliema2,

It seems that any PM I send these days never 'arrive' so to speak. I've sent you another brief tester and if you don't receive it - I'm giving up !!!

Please let me know,

Cheers Biff.

I have sent several PMs to various folks and never seem to have had them acknowledged. I think Sliema2 has now verified that my messages are not arriving and I remember sending him the message yesterday twice 'for luck',

Trev, I have checked your account and can see no reason for you pm's not to be arriving. If you go to your sent or outbox (i can never remember which one) you can tell if your messages have been sent. If they haven't they will no longer show in the box. Can you check it for me please.

Hi Sarah,

Thanks for your concern.

I've checked my outbox and it is empty. My sentbox has entries but the last one is dated 23rd October. As you are aware I have sent a further brief PM to Sliema2 this moening and have asked him to let me know if it's arrived. So far he has not replied!

Hope this helps,

Trev

Hi Kath & Sarah,

I think I've solved the problem. Unlike when I post a reply on the forum a PM requires the subject box to be completed otherwise it doesn't get sent! I have done this with the message I sent to you Kath but not with the one I sent to you Sarah! The message I sent to you Kath has now appeared in my sent box so I assume it has therefore been received by you.

Sorry to cause all this trouble but at least I know why PMs weren't going. I wonder if anyone else has experienced this or is it just me being thick?

Kath & Sarah thanks once again for your concern and I guess all will go well from now on,

Trev
