Guest Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Sorry don't mean to moan but has this suddenly become the site for Milton Keynes Early Years? I know they are posting alot of informative posts but is this really the place to be advertising what is coming up and what you can offer etc etc? Or am I just irritated as I'm having a bad day (which I am by the way lol!) Quote
JacquieL Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 I think you'll find that those postings are in the LA Forums and are for Milton Keynes, but show up as new postings so that they are not missed. Sorry to hear you're having a bad day. It seems to be that time of year! Don't forget if you share your bad days on here you'll get lots of empathy and support. Quote
Inge Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Can I just say that while they are in the Milton Keynes forum, this is not clear when you go to view new posts and the forum to identify it just says.. 'recruitment' or 'Core workforce training courses'. Is there any way it could be made clearer so that everyone is aware of who it is aimed at. perhaps it could say the LEA forum instead of the sub title. Inge Quote
hali Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 sounds imke a good idea to me too Inge - sorry your having a bad dy Janny Quote
Guest Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Well said Inge, it was confusing me too.... Quote
Guest Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Thanks for your replies and sorry to the Milton Keynes forum for moaning, it's nothing personal I promise! I didn't realise that they show up in the LA forums! Maybe what Inge suggests could be done? Just having a long day (7am to 7pm) and 2 staff in office crying due to a problem I thought I'd solved! Roll on Friday when I've given myself a long weekend!!!! Thanks all x Quote
aliamch Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 I would love if my LA subscribed to the forum and then post all that information. Despite my campaigning, they don't appear to show any inclination to subsribe. Karrie Quote
aliamch Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 Just read your post Janny, hope your day/week gets better. Karrie Quote
Guest Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 I agree that it is slightly annoying to open a post and find it is area specific. As suggested perhaps this could be shown in the title. Quote
hali Posted November 25, 2008 Posted November 25, 2008 think our LA will when they join on 1st Dec - but info will only be usful for us in the borough - not everyone on forum! Quote
Steve Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 Hi all - Thanks for pointing this out. The problem is mainly because we've had a fair few LAs joining over the last few months who are making use of the local forum much more actively than before - this is obviously a very good thing, but has led to these side effects. I think the best solution, for FSF members generally and also for the LA members, is if we change the way the local forums appear (so that instead of a long list only the LA to which a particular member belongs show up). This will make it much more easy to find than the steadily growing list we currently see. And the other change we can make is to have local forum posts on the front page only appear to members of that authority. I'll be chatting with the moderators over the next few days about this to see how best to implement it, so bear with us in the meantime! Quote
Gezabel Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 Many thanks Steve I am still on such a high from receiving MY MUG that I am too happy to 'moan' but agree with previous posts Thanks for such a prompt response Quote
HappyMaz Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 I am still on such a high from receiving MY MUG that I am too happy to 'moan' That's good, Geraldine: otherwise your mug might just ping back on that invisible piece of elastic... Quote
Gezabel Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 (edited) :wacko: :rolleyes: :unsure: {making note to self to NEVER EVER moan in anyway whatsoever } Edited November 26, 2008 by Geraldine Quote
Beau Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 Can you hear that noise? - its the sound of Maz's mug whizzing back to FSF HQ. That'll teach her to say such wicked things..... Quote
Gezabel Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 Thank you Beau I was trembling so much at the thought I nearly dropped MY MUG now that would give me cause to moan! :wacko: Quote
Guest Posted November 26, 2008 Posted November 26, 2008 Aww, I'm so jealous about your mug.....!!!! Thank you Steve for thinking up a way to solve this - I wish my LA was as active as MK!! Quote
HappyMaz Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Can you hear that noise? - its the sound of Maz's mug whizzing back to FSF HQ. That'll teach her to say such wicked things..... And would you sue me for personal injury when my hot Earl Grey sloshed into the faces of the unsuspecting admin team? And would I need to give my lovely certificate back too? I really am very very sorry. Or as one of my little chaps said today when writing his letter to Father Christmas: I've been good for three minutes! Can I come out from under my duvet yet? Quote
Beau Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Well, since you are so sorry we'll maybe let you off this time but I think you need to be working on being good for a bit longer than your little chap! Quote
HappyMaz Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Well, since you are so sorry we'll maybe let you off this time but I think you need to be working on being good for a bit longer than your little chap! For some of us its very very hard though: but as you know I am trying... very trying... Quote
Gezabel Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 And would I need to give my lovely certificate back too? :unsure: Give your WHAT back ???????? I am very busy working on how to progress from mug and badge owner to T.shirt owner and now I read about CERTIFICATES :wacko: Where, why, when and how did you manage to get one of those :rolleyes: Quote
HappyMaz Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 I am very busy working on how to progress from mug and badge owner to T.shirt owner and now I read about CERTIFICATES Oh my life. Why do I open my big mouth? Is it too late to take a vow of silence? :wacko: Quote
hali Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 well Geraldine after 5 1/2 years ive only managed a badge so ur doing very well Quote
Beau Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 well Geraldine after 5 1/2 years ive only managed a badge so ur doing very well But you're always pie-eyed whenever we do a quiz. Quote
dublinbay Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Oh my life. Why do I open my big mouth? Is it too late to take a vow of silence? Oh dear Maz. Maybe you should read your signature every so often!!! Quote
HappyMaz Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Oh dear Maz. Maybe you should read your signature every so often!!! Take my own advice dublinbay? Ooh that would be too risky! Quote
