Outlook is getting on my tits. You sign in, it shows you your emails and within a second they all dissapear, same with sent emails. They must be somewhere as when I refresh they all come back for a second.

Used to manage an exchange organization years ago (outlook server) - how much mail have you got? also go into your user profile, appdata, local microsoft, Outlook and youll have an ost file (from memory) thats your mail...sometimes outlook generates new ones so you end up with a bunch of old ones in there as well clogging everything up....before you start doing stuff export your mail to a backup first (as ive know idea how your mail client is currently set up)!!!!

back to the first statement outlook has a finite amount of email it can deal with (my old hr department used to have so much) outlook couldnt see half of it and the only way was to connect directly to the server (webmail) so thats also an issue along with too many subfolders....outlook doesnt like that either...

I get about 120 incoming a day, and slightly fewer outgoing. When I put in a search term to look for something and start scrolling down, before I find what I'm looking for it jumps back to the top.
Another thing - it's stopped recognising a colleague who I copy into many emails - I now have to manually type their whole email address in every time.

Most of the emails I want to keep are in sub folders in an external drive. The laptop storage is very light as 0.1gb of 5gb free as I keep it personal information relatively clear

Fixed it. In Chromebook they offer two types of reset's. The first is powerwash which claims to return it to factory settings (it doesn't) and the other option is safety reset. I did the latter and all is well but interestingly, it's removed duck duck go as my search engine and Ublock as my advert blocker
 
Stopped doing the bigger jobs on the bikes during the week as if i run out of time...still have to get up for work the next day....so, tend to do them on the weekend...that being said other half working a late and i finished early for a trip to the dentist so changed the plugs on the rsv and cleaned out the airbox at the same time and while its all apart get the chance to give the top of the engine a good clean, reseat and clean electrical plugs as well. Dropped the oil on the weekend and its still red so put it back in, should get me through the TT and the summer this year...next incoming job which i wont be doing cos im shit at it is getting the throttle bodies balanced...booked in for the start of May.

Been pretty much in bed with this fucken flu since Tuesday.. Last night I thought fuck it, and done a few bottles of red wine. Woke this morning feeling loads better! Coincidence? Hmmm...
Anyhu, i got up, drove to town for stuff then spent a good few hours on the weed eater ( strimmer) and lawn mower.
I'd like to say I feel all the better for it but I dont. Feel worse now..
No appetite at all. I know I need to eat but just can't. Made a lovely fillet steak and eggs and pretty much just pushed em round the plate..
