Good afternoon Gemma.

Suprised to receive your reply, as Everytime I went to send, the message repeatedly kept going to the top saying something like can’t send repeat. So as thought I hadn’t sent a message, gave up and closed down.

My post code is DT6 5EB. Issue could be “age related” just like myself, 80+. Ha.

Iphone is an SE likely 7 years old, so this might be a problem.

cheers.
