Just testing myelf if the blog is working OK. I'll time this to see how long it takes to appear.
Josephine
It took under 5 seconds to appear. Everything is working fine. As soon as you comment I'll delete my two comments. Keep trying!
Josephine
Clearly you are on this page, otherwise you would not see this. If you are reading it then, well done, you have got to the right place.
Now follow these easy steps:
1. Under Leave your comment at the top right you will see a blank square.
2. Type your Comment in that blank square.
3. Under the square you will see Choose an identity. Leave the green dot in the top one, (your blogger display name). In other words do nothing, leave it as it is.
4. Don't bother with Preview until you are more used to sending comments. Preview is very useful but not strictly necessary.
5. All you do now is click the blue button cleraly marked in white Login and Publish
That is all there is to it, believe me it could not possibly be made simpler.
Hurray! It worked. I knew you would get there in the end although I was just about to throw in the sponge. Now, reply to this for practice.

it is like magic!One momebnt my comment is there, next moment it is gone!Gee i have to let WOOTHIE out;.she is still in her cage talk to you later!
I am a hell of a typist: never was taught it! The school thought Latin and G reek were more important. I wonder?? any input from you??? about this??
By Jove, you've got it! Now, on you own, try using the Preview button. This let's you see how your message will look so that you can check anc correct it before sending. Practice this on your own.
Yes, I did try to study Latin, but it was all Greek to me. :)
Thanks for your message! Now i will try the PREVIEW Button! should be simple as it was also in when i wrote myWW2 storeisbut i have to call Broadband forst: Cannot receive any e mail On my MAIL STAMP where i always got it ! So long Peter
By the way :I do NOT have a GREEN button AND to me BUTTONS are always ROUND Sorry about that!

Frank! i read your message: M when I put my mouse i on "publish etc" it g does NOT light up ! it gets a dark > Must be a dutch mouse???
FRank! miracles!!! I sent you a comment i clicked on log in er tc onand NOW i can see the green letters with "COMMENT SAVED" Miracles do happen!!"
Frank, I am obviously NOT a typist ! when i get excited i just mess up what i want to write! I hear you say:"Slow down J"and you are right. I'll try!!
Frank! when i click with the mouse i do not see a hand either!! must be because it is a MAC! Diff. stoked s for diff folks.
Peter, I started a comment.got distracted: did not push "log in and Publish" but it disappeared anyhow.
I wanted to tell you that my password app. is accepted 1 What genie took care of oi??? I wonder!
The 'hand' is a Microsoft Windows icon. You will see the regular Mac icon, but not when you click. It appears when your mouse pointer goes over an active object.
Don't worry about that. Now you are getting the hang of it try the Preview option. You will see the finished result, but your text remains in the box for editing.
Then use Preview again after editing, and then click on "publish this comment" in blue in the Preview window.
