23rd April.

My sincere apologies to all the English folk on this forum as I missed St George's Day (and nobody reminded me).

My excuse is that B***dy Yahoo has somehow taken over my computer as a preferred Search Engine and has booted good old Google into touch and no matter how I try, I can't get my computer to reinstate Google as my preferred option. Google always celebrates UK Saints Days.

I only found out that I missed the day in a round about way when Mrs Grafo was chatting to Mrs Randa about the events of the past week or so.

Yes siree, but some Flag Makers don't leave it to chance

If its Windows 10, go to the apps settings - default apps. You should be able to switch the search engine back to chrome there.

The above is for changing the default web browser.

To change the default search engine depends upon which browser you're using. If you're using the latest version of MS Edge you need to select -

Settings>Privacy & Services>Address bar>Manage Search Engines

and make Google the default search engine.

Tried all that but when I get to "make Google my Default Search Engine" it doesn't give me the option to "Save"
I wonder if I could delete Yahoo but as it was part of the original package and I therefore worry that if by doing so, I wipe out a lot of other things?

Shouldn't have to save anything, just make Google the default. As you can see from the pop-up menu, there is also the possibility to delete so might be an idea to bin Yahoo!

Well done that man. I've been trying and trying for many weeks using a different method to the one you use.

I did wonder why you missed the day but then thought its a Welsh thing, too much history to get over .
I flew my flag on the day and the flagpole is still up as my very nice (but bored) neighbour made us both NHS flags out of light and dark blue material she had. That flag has been flying since and will stay up until this current situation is all over, sooner rather than later hopefully.

I am all ready for 8th May now. Just made up about 8 yards of bunting from the paper templates on the Department of Digital, Culture, Media and Sport website. Hope it doesn't rain though.
