Dreamwidth problems
Jun. 3rd, 2010 08:43 amNo sooner do I decide to give Dreamwidth a try, than it seems to stop working. I finally managed to get tags to appear on my page, but since then I haven't been able to access Dreamwidth at all, I just get endless 'problem loading page' messages.
Is it working for anyone else, or have they got server problems?

I had a great day out yesterday with Toby and Alex, my nephews. It seems almost impossible that they are now six and eight respectively.
I'm working on getting them hooked on board games. I introduced them to simplified versions of Rapidoh and Galaxy Trucker and they greatly enjoyed them. They both did better at Galaxy Trucker than I expected, picking up the rules on how to connect up the ships remarkably well. (Sure, I had to help them rearrange loads of pieces, but they were getting a lot correct on their own.)
For some strange reason, a game about building spaceships and flying them through space appealed to two little boys. Can't imagine why...
Galaxy Trucker is great fun - Henry gave it to Richard and myself as a joint birthday present and we got lots of games in at Silvercon last weekend.
BTW, Silvercon went really well. We played loads of really good games, the atmosphere relaxed and friendly and we had a great bunch of people.

I've added it to my birthday list. Henry is ahead of the rest of the family - he got me my belated birthday present (from last October) in time for Silvercon. Richard and Kelvin are still lagging... I daren't buy any more sock wool until I know if I'm going to be given some. Or the book I've been eyeing....

Still no dreamwidth.
Jun. 3rd, 2010 03:11 pmI managed to copy across all my LJ entries a couple of days ago, successfully used the search my entries facility that comes with my new paid account, worked out (with no little difficulty) how to get my tags in a column on the right - since then, can't access anything.
Can other people read my DW page?
