- When I was having a problem seeing old posters instead of new ones it was because I was accessing the site through a short cut on the tool bar. Even if I rebooted, I woudl still get the old posters. Now I access the site from new every time and I've not had a problem since. Must be ssomething to do with Chrome as that's what I use. xx
- 2012-03-12 11:28 Gill
- Its worked !!!! Went on via internet explorer instead of google chrome and its worked.Thankyou.XXXX
- 2012-03-12 11:16 Gill

- Posters all down Shirley Rd from Robin Hood replaced some more that had disappeared.Put flyers in houses that back onto playing fields by park(Oakhurst Rd)..I did Marie Drive and OakHurst Rd.I'll google the other rds to see where I need to do.A lovely lady brought me in tochat about Rex ,she knew of the man that fed him.She is gonna open her back gate and leave some food out to try and coax him in.Also twice today I thought I heard a familiar bark that was silensed when I started to call Rex...maybe just me wishfull thinking.Thanks to everyone that has helped again today and those still out there helping.Gonna try and get back out there in a bit.No new sightings.
