Gabes, I went to the optometrist the other day to organise an eye test and was told that it was changed to every 3 years. When I went for the bone density test the other day they changed the code so that I can get a test yearly without any cost because of having been on steroids and the possibility that I may have to go on them again. Perhaps the steroid reason may work for eye tests as well. It is worth trying hey!

Thank you Gabes, I am going to try. I wonder why your Country IP has a little Australia flag and my Country IP is always 'unknown.' Perhaps I am much further 'downunder' than you :grin:

Linda,

It might be that some of the IP addresses in the group from which yours comes are assigned to other countries. Sometimes this is due to the IP service provider and the way they cross borders with their service.

my flag alternates between australian and unknown, each time I am on a new IP address. Ie if I reset the modem after power outage or I join via a different network.
