Ha ha ha !
With the giant Bluewater shopping complex nearby, the big shops in Gravesend town centre [M & S, BHS, Woolworths etc.] have been replaced by the 'bargain basement' types [Poundland, The Pound Shop, Poundstretcher etc.] !
If even these are suffering, in the present retail climate, what hope for the future ?
All we will be left with are mobile phone shops, which seem to be flourishing...

It's good to see that problems are being noticed & put right !

Then it started having problems playing videos.
With the upgrade to Windows 10 I had a new browser, Microsoft Edge available.
I switched to this & the videos played perfectly.
But then, when John [or whoever] posted audio files, it stated that 'that format is not supported' !
To listen to them, without downloading, I had to open Phoenix again using my old Firefox browser.
But lately, I see that they play OK in Microsoft Edge !
Progress !

I don't even know what Microsoft Edge is.
