Must say looks good.
I trust that Peterhead is one of the locations that they have for
forecasts?
If they don't have your own town/village then I guess it is a case of
will the nearest one do.

Having a quick read of the site - do you speak Norweigen? did well to
follow the instructions to get the app uploaded.

To load the app in Speed Dial, other click the Speed Dial page and select
the weather extension (other click means the opposite from normal, i.e.
right click if right handed, left click if left handed)

Click it to visit the weather site and type in location.
There is a wee button top right on the forecast page which states 'Use
this location in Opera Speed Dial' (in english). Click that and you are
all done.

mentioned:

Enjoy.

I never use that sort of stuff. I suppose I just lack the interest
most here have in small details.

BTW, is your email addy to this group munged? I recall you had it set
like that once.
I can't understand why people do that.

More fictional than munged.

People do it so that email harvesting will not work, thus saving one from
an apparently limitless amount of junk mail.
If you would like my email address, all you have to do is ask.

Is this a real problem, Gianna? I use my normal email address when posting
messages, as quite a few others seem to do, and I have not been inundated
with junk mail for years. Maybe Virgin have an efficient firewall that
recognises junk, but I don't know.
