Hi Barb, You can see by the archives .... http://www.oulton.com/cwa/newsships.nsf/by+date ... that we usually go in "fits and starts" at different times of year. It is summertime in the Northern hemisphere, which might account for no messages ... but the opposite often happens when it is too hot 'somewhere in the world' or too cold 'somewhere in the world' So, no, you are doing anything wrong and, the list doesn't go on holidays ...... just the list members :-} Sue -- TheShipsList Website http://www.theshipslist.com/ At 06:19 PM 2010-07-22 +1000, Barb Baker wrote: >I have not received any emails from your site for about a week.
