I just accidently clicked on the wrong button and completely deleted my last journal entry.
Sure it was nothing exciting, but can't remember now. How annoying.
Not much to report really. Kids are well, Wife is perfect. Grace is sitting up on her own now, and Charlie had his first day at nursery.
Still no luck finding a new house for us all, but we arehappy to stay where we are and keep looking for as long as it takes.
Whoops

Hi there Simon, I'm always been paranoid that I would delete one of my journal entries just like that. But apparently there is a way to get a deleted entry back. I'm not sure if I understand it all, but here is what the FAQ says:
This doesn't completely delete it - it remains as one of the conversations in your journal forum. If you later decide that what you've written is actually worth keeping, then you can reinstate your Journal Entry to your Personal Space. This is how to do it:
Scroll down to the Journal section of your Personal Space.
Click on either of the links attached to any of the other Journal Entries, say, '3 replies' or 'Last Week'. You'll be taken to the Forum that relates to all your Journal Entries. If you don't have any other Journal Entries, then create one with the 'Add Journal Entry' button, post a reply to it by clicking on the relevant 'Discuss this Entry' button, and then follow the instructions in this step. You can always remove this extra Journal Entry later, if you like.
Find the title of the Journal Entry you want to reinstate under 'Other Conversations' and click on it.
Click on the link 'Click here to subscribe to this Conversation', and your Journal Entry will reappear on your Personal Space. If you can't see it, you may have to click on 'Click here to see more Journal Entries', especially if it's an old Journal Entry.

Unfortunatly after all of that effort, I found the jounal entry in question really wasn't worth keeping Typical!
But I'm glad it's loss taught me I should be more cafefull, but when I am there's a way to get it back.
Thanks once more for your kind help.
May your path lead to happiness.
