      anyway got it now.
      The problem is that things like YouTube and Vimeo are now all-https:// at the start of their URLs, but the forum's code is a bit too old to cope with that. The trick is to remove the s from https:// when you paste the URL into the box that pops up when you use the film reel, or if you do it manually, change:

      Code:
      [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLhld_PI2zg[/video]
      to
      Code:
      [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLhld_PI2zg[/video]
      and it should sort itself out:

        Remove the s from HTTPS when you are embedding videos and it works.

            Im ready for the break - if you call catering for 13-20 people a break

            Booze all ordered and is resting in a garage.

            Presents still boxed up in spare room for children and mrs 5*

            Food to be bought tonight and tomorrow

            Treats for pooch will be bought tomorrow

            Safe journey back
            Good luck getting food - I think the managers of large supermarkets are feckwit. Loads of stuff was out of stock.

                  Funny coincidence. I was trying, but failing, to post a youtube video in the "Currently Listening To" thread about half hour ago. Cheers (again) NF!

                      Tea tonight has been a home made ragu, served with, in my case, a small amount of pasta, and a goodly amount of chips

                      And, wonder of wonders: I had a glass of red wine with it; not all of the bottle having gone into the sauce

                      This is the first booze of any kind I've had since before I was admitted to hospital, and came as a very welcome change from having to remain completely sober while I was in there
