Poster: A snowHead

In these weird times as we sit it out here in Serre Chevalier we're keeping a daily blog of what we're up to, which due to the ever-changing limitations is gradually getting more frustrating, especially given the glorious weather and conditions for ski touring and cycling which we are no longer allowed to do and from next week looks like a return to winter.

Many thanks @Weathercam for all the posts on life in Serre Che. It is fascinating to see how things are going over there in comparison with life here.
Would it be churlish to point out that the blog doesn't render properly in Firefox? Seems to be OK with an old copy of Internet Explorer, though.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Hi @Weathercam. I'm using FF V74.0 on Win7, but I haven't got Chrome set up on that machine. I get the same thing with OpenSuSE Leap 15.1 Linux and FF V68.5.0 ESR on another machine. It looks as though there is an overlying blank window obscuring 75% of the main stories giving a vertical strip on the left. The title menus look OK. Happy to discuss over mail if that will be of assistance.

@Weathercam, I have now tried Chrome V 80.0.3987.149 on Win7 and I get the same thing as FF.

No adblocker, and the same problem on Firefox and Chrome and Win 7 and SuSE Linux.

@Weathercam, zoom level does affect the blog site. Normally I use the default browser zoom at 100%, but if I reduce the level to 80% both Chrome and Firefox on Win7 render correctlly (more difficult to read of course). Both still fail to render at 90%. The other URL for anotherharddayattheoffice works correctly at 100% right up to and including 240%. I am using a smallish Dell laptop with a 13" 1600x900 (native) display with 100%(default) display zoom.

Latest blog, almost political in nature now up
https://stylealtitude.com/day-6-lockdown-serre-chevalier-france.html
A better day compared to yesterday, currently not a cloud in the sky so we'll be getting out and about behind us again and have my eye on a new route (not on the map) I saw yesterday with an old "sentier" sign hanging off a tree.

You know it makes sense.

I agree cycling and walking are great to keep you healthy but the reality here in the UK is what we saw over the weekend we will go into lock down here very soon I am afraid differnet I suppose for you guys as you may not see anyone on your walks and rides and if you do you can keep a social distance, strange days indeed as JL once said.
Stay well out there and look after the mountains until we can return.
