The question is, has the weekend been favourable towards Wilf?
I let him sit on my knee again. And he showed some promise at grasping the concept of 'fetch', before failing miserably and leaving his toy marooned in the mud. But he's still quite big and jumpy, which I struggle with. I concede that he is quite pretty, and doesn't smell, and isn't too hairy. There is hope!
I get it twice each week 🙂
Been meaning to ask about sorting that out, actually...
It gets sent out at a certain time. Then it gets resent about 1 day later to subscribers that didn't open it the first time. It's a standard mailchimp feature.
I get it twice a week as well. It's a bit annoying. The reason I haven't opened it is because it's in flipping tiny text on my mobile screen that's a pain in the arse to read, so I don't bother.
I should probably unsubscribe, really.
@flyingmonkeycorps can I ask what sort of phone/browser you're using? And does it open up smaller than your normal emails? It should be legible on a phone as well as desktop, so if it's not working properly I will try and give it a tickle.

Ah, that explains it then. Will have to check my email more often I guess... Kind of annoying but no deal breaker. I always read & enjoy the newsletter but often leave it a few days until I get round to it.
Just checked on my phone... yes it is tiny and hard to read (on my admittedly small screen).
It's resizing it to fit the whole text on the screen and yes it's smaller than a regular plain text email.

Doesn't bother me as I usually use the PC anyway 🙂
Hey @stwhannah, sure!
Huawei Mate 10 Pro, Android (12 I think, it's an old phone) and Gmail app.
Most emails are fine (I'm pretty picky about what I'm subscribed to so it's not that wide of a field tbf). It shows up as tiny, barely legible; when I pinch zoom it keeps the same line width (which I think is normal) so I have to scroll left-right to read it at which point I give up and do something else instead. Flipping the phone works, but I don't like holding it like that.
Interestingly I've just compared web/PC version with my phone, and the phone has longer line width than the PC, which is odd.
Ok so this is really weird - I just flipped my phone to landscape to see if it made any difference, and when I flipped it back it was much more legible. Odd.

As Mr Corps just said, if you flip to landscape mode, scroll down a bit so a few lines of text are in view, them go back to landscape it fixes the text size.
On my phone it's Gmail, so delivered through the Gmail app.

Annoying. If see a newsletter (not just yours) but don't have time to read it, I'll leave it unread until I do - which might be in a couple of days. It's not an urgent message. I get it everyone and their dog is begging for people's eyeballs and attention, and many people don't read all their email, but this is over the threshold for me so... unsubscribe.
Enough of the text size and repeat emai debates. We need weekly (or DAILY) updates and newletters about the dawgie 😍
