Gmails Won't Send

[jno]

I frequently get an error message when trying to send a Gmail, specially if it's replying to one:

"Oops... a server error occurred and your email was not sent. (#007)"

Just over the last month or so, and apparently at random. It won't save these emails as drafts, either.

Anyone know what's happening, or what I might do about it? (I have Hotmail and other email accounts but would prefer to use Gmail.)

[jno]

oh, I've done that, Neti. Left the house front door open - fortunately not wide open, because it's only 20ft from a busy London street - and the inside door to my own flat open, and then went shopping for an hour! That's not a good feeling.

Anyway, I've seen a neurologist and had an MRI brain scan and I'm all perfectly normal. I still don't know what happened, but at least that's something less to worry about.

[netibiza]

Well done jno. That was quick!

[jno]

sure was! She wasn't expecting to get the results till Monday, by which time she was going to be on holiday, but it looks as though they came through in a couple of hours and so she phoned me.

Guess what: I have just written a cheque. My first one since 2015. I should have done it with a quill pen.

Glad you're okay 🙂

[jno]

yep, that's only 23 things wrong with me now, most of them teeth.

[jno]

oh for pete's sake, my ding dinner started to slide off the baking tray as I took it from the oven so I steadied it with the other hand - which didn't have an oven glove on.

I held it under running water for 5 minutes, which helped, but the only cream I could find was an old bottle of after-sun. Hopefully it will stop my flesh from peeling off.

[netibiza]

Oh dear me jno, did tou hurt yourself? Not fit to live on your own now!! 

We all do silly things.

[jno]

I seem to be okay thanks neti. It was only half a second before I realised what I'd done.

jno jnr is hinting politely that I might like to go live down south of the river somewhere near him so he can keep a son-like eye on me. Probably not a bad idea, this place is far too big for me, but there's still tons of stuff I need to unload. I got a letter from one of the charity shops saying they'd made £1000 from things I'd given them, so I am right up there with Bill Gates as a mega-donor.

[netibiza]

Yes moving would be a good idea jno.

I think we should now as oue land is too big for us to manage now! But shudder at the thought of clearing out all our rubbish ! Couldn't live in an apartment either!

[jno]

I wouldn't mind an apartment as long as there's a balcony where I can sit in the sun. My garden's turning into a swamp and I would happily leave it behind. But it needs to be rescued enough so prospective buyers thinks it's pretty. And there's so much needing doing to the house itself.

It looks like I won't get my op for another month now. But at least they have a plan for me. So I will fill in the time wheeling trolleyloads of stuff to the charity shops. A very nice leather jacket will be in the next load; I've just got too much stuff. I've also found a fur coat I never knew about but jno jnr says keep that, it might be real fur.

[netibiza]

I kept.one.of my mothers fur coats the flies nested in it so had to chuck it. the other was kept in cold storage in London and we've forgotten where!! It was snow leopard so couldnt wear it these days!

[netibiza]

Well you are brave or organised..I have so much absolute trut to dump but just , can't just in case!! I am a war baby!!!

[jno]

I'm having to be really brutal, neti, if I haven't read it or worn it for more than 20 years it can go.

[jno]

same for threads I haven't posted on for 20 years...

[netibiza]

Hey jno you OK?

[jno]

had an absolutely stinking cold for a week, neti, choking on mucus and missing meals. Just about recovering now which is as well as next week they're going to try to repeat the hernia op that didn't work out back in the New Year. Lots of pills to take - 12 at once! - to get my platelets up to safe levels.

[netibiza]

Just popping in to wish everyone a Happy Easter and hope everyone is well and happy. X

[jno]

recovering rather than well but that's another health woe dealt with under the knife (I hope). It's just the ingrown toenails and getting six new teeth and I'll be almost normal.

[netibiza]

Oh jno just like triggers broom

[netibiza]

Happy Easter to all biddies.
