Nowt but prize draw entries lately, as much use as Prince Phillip in a hod carrying contest.

How you find humour in belittling a 98 year old man ... escapes me.

I am not 98 though no longer middle aged (not sure when I stopped being that TBH) and a royalist but not feeling that the post is belittling. I am a woman and would never have been any use in a hod carrying contest. Though I suspect a younger Prince Philip would have been capable of carrying a hod.

They made it more difficult this time round.

They put a limit on the number of pages that you can open within a certain amount of time, so my speed dial pages only worked part of the time. Either they would only part load, or I get a '403 forbidden' error.

When I did find a bird, the Tweet button often wouldn't load, denying me the extra 5 PDEs.

So it's become far too time consuming and/or addictive to remain a 'bit of fun'.

Fun while it lasted, but for me, time to call it a day I'm afraid. :(
