Have no idea what I have
Have no idea what I have pushed wrong this time, the internet in Angola is extremely slow, was struggling to upload photos, I canceled because of waiting to long, it probably submitted it any way. Sorry again Tony, looks to me like I am going to be your grace grower.

It's happening a lot ATM
To lots of us. Duplicate IDs and duplicate comments. I think it's a combination of the browser and the internet connectivity. There are lots of redundancies built into internet protocol which favours re-sending the same data over losing any of it. Which is a good thing, normally.
GoogleChrome problem.
There is also a problem with GoogleChrome not refreshing but resending the update.
Firefox and IE dont do this.
Extremely frustrating!
duplicate IDs
Oh dear.
