thank you everyone

 Can't believe how easy this was.

I tried googling unable to access youtube but many of the replies were outdated and/or had suggestions I didn't understand apart from clearing my cache, which I had no idea how to do.

So I googled unable to access youtube in microsoft edge and got a link that walked me through it. When opening my internet in the ytaskbar at the top over on the right is a three dot menu option and from the dropdown there I chose settings and from the window that opened on the left I chose "privacy search and services" and from there chose to delete my browsing and download history. 

I hope I haven't accidentally lost any of my favourite blog sites, but I'll get those back easily enough.

After weeks of assuming something was wrong at youtube, I now have youtube back and working, simply by clearing my browser and download histories. 

Thank you for all your suggestions. I wish I'd asked weeks ago.

    I am so glad that you found a solution, and a simple one at that.

    I'm glad you found a way to get YouTube back! I'll have to remember your solution if I start having issues.

    Hooray! Most of the time, the answers are out there, it just takes a bit of digging.

      Also, i answered on my blog but in case you don't have a chance to go back and see it, 24601 is Jean Valjean's prisoner number in Les Miserable. His original offence that sent him to prison was stealing a loaf of French bread.

kitchen tip #?????

Not exactly environmentally friendly...... Line the base of your oven with a sheet of aluminium foil. If you keep a tray there to catch spills and overflows, line the tray with aluminium foil instead. It's much easier to throw away a sheet of foil (once it's been spilled on a few dozen times), than it is to scrub off baked on spillovers.

I've been trying to contact Haagen-Dazs

 You all know the ice cream company? Very expensive ice cream, which I recently discovered in small tubs at my local supermarket.  I'd heard about Salted Caramel ice cream, with some bloggers raving about it, so when I saw the Haagen-Dazs tubs on sale for only $5 I bought some.  I loved it! Fabulous stuff. Just the right amount of salted caramel streams to counteract the sweet ice cream. I would have rated it five stars. But just lately, I have been disappointed with the product containing far too much of the salted caramel and my rating now would be only one star. I went to the website and clicked on "contact us" to let them know I was no longer happy. The link popped up with an address to "General Mills" which I then clicked on only to find a small popup informing me they were "offline".  Just because it is past regular business hours or permanently? Who knows.  So I'm airing my grievance here instead. If this results in fewer sales of their Sa
