Just tried looking at a few CLs and I always click on the "View on Map" tab to get a rough idea of location.

The first 4 I've looked at couldn't bring the map up. Anyone else noticed this problem? I'm logged in so that is not the reason. If others have the same problem maybe someone could report the fault by referring my post.

If not then I'd be interested to know why I can't access the map.

    Thanks TW but it's not that map I'm on about.

    If you are looking for a CL and on that individual CLs page on this clubs site and click on the View on map icon you can usually see where about roughly the CL is. Unless of course the problem is affecting both sets of maps but then again I have seen the map that I'm on about when looking at CLs recently.

    Maybe I'm just tired tonight. Who knows?

    Just tried it, using a favourite CL of ours, and it’s working fine WN for me.

    Thanks TTda. It may well be a problem with my MacBook.

    I tried to access AA route planner for something else and it wouldn't load the map from my bookmark but did from a google search.

    I'll try tomorrow after the cache has been cleared.

    Ah, I think it's definitely my MacBook!

    I just opened a random CL and tried to access the map. No deal. Then I thought to open the page full screen and get rid of my bookmarks on the left hand side of the page. This produced the map! Hooray.

    I've been having a problem on the What are you up today Thread in General Chat where the size of print suddenly reduces. To get it back to size I open to full screen then revert back to having the bookmarks there. It works but not for long.

    Doesn't usually happen anywhere else.

    I fear a new machine might be on the cards in the not too distant future.

    Thanks TW and Ttda.

    I think it’s one of those nights generally WN. We are both cursing our normally very reliable wifi here at the moment as well. I have managed to download a film and will be retiring shortly, leaving MR Digital to curse on his own🤣

    It might help if you decline the automatically given cookie choice on web sites.

    Take a look at manage cookies and ( in theory) a lot of the cookies can be either turned off, or default to off.

    A good cookie clear out is always recommended. 

    Reloading Safari , or use another browser, might change the Mac behaviour.  

    Sadly, most Apple products seem to outlast the time Apple are prepared to support the software.  I have a couple of old iPads and a 2006 Mac all slow but work very reliably. Now not supported by Apple, so I am very wary of using then anywhere near the internet, or external wireless connection.

    I'm actually rather glad!🤣 Might not just be my machine and could save me a few bob, at least for the time being.
