Hungry tonight. The latest chicken recipe from Pepin I want to make is a chicken bouillabaisse with sausage.

That was last night. Today, not only was I able to log in, I was already logged in.

About time.

Sorry you had to deal with all of that, BK. What a hassle!

My main debit card account expires/renews sometime next year. I'm anticipating a nightmare. I'm not even sure of all the place I need to update it.

It was all very infuriating.

I have had to deal with similar situations when, even though I am also clearly on an account, information will only be given to me if Keith first got on the phone and cleared it.

I thought they were automatically renewed.

Not long ago I was doing something online and the code was sent to Keith, except he wasn't here for me to get it  ::)

Since he didn't forward the code to me, having not heard the text, I just waited until he came home and tried again.

  I thought they were automatically renewed.

The card/account does, DR Jane. But the new expiration date and/or account number must be updated with every entity and website that I've used it for on subscriptions and recurring payments. That is the part I dread.

Just out of curiosity, DR John G., what seasons/episodes of The Avengers are represented in that set? I've checked around, and it seems not many of the original episodes from Season One have survived. But the show does not appear to be available all in one place.

It’s the first season of Diana Rigg. I know the original season was with Honor Blackman.

It's bedtime for me.  I have to be up early tomorrow.  I have dental surgery in the morning.
