HELP Google Chrome Vs IE

I am really fed up, As you probably notice I tinker with my blog all the time. I want it to work in all browsers. I have a real problem which I am finding hard to solve. 

My blog looks ok in Google Chrome, the tabs on the top of the page are where they are meant to be, however when I look at the blog in Internet Explorer the tabs are all wonky and don't line up properly and there is a huge gap that looks lke something is missing.

. Its got me beaten and I just don't know how to solve it. Its just one of those things that is really niggling me. Does anyone have the solution?

I prefer Chrome because it runs quicker than IE however many of my visitors still use IE got to say firefox is almost dropping off the scale.

Any help or suggestions on this would be appreciated.

Voting

Well I wonder what has motivated me to write the following I suspect it’s a conversation on Twitter but nothing I haven’t thought of before.

I really think the Australians have it right and the one thing in life that should be adhered to is voting. Everyone should vote except those that are to ill or detained. 


As far as I am concerned to many people have fought and lost their lives in order for their successors (Us) to have our say on the future of our Country, City,County,Town,Village or Home.

My blog is not a political blog and I don’t often chat about politics as it is a hot topic but I am freely able to express an opinion thanks to my predecessors and those that believed everyone should be heard.

Those who don’t bother to use their vote don’t have a right to complain everyone if physically able should vote instead of going unheard.

As I pointed out last week  Tanworth had a 31.9% turn out which means 68.1% did not bother voting. Which actually means the minority of people turned up to vote and to all intents and purposes 68.1% of our population has not been represented.

Now I would like to know what would happen if we had 100% turn out and 60% of the population did not agree with anything any candidate representing them promised or did. Who would win then? The minority who did make a choice on the ballot slip or the majority that felt they may not be represented at all and spoilt their vote.

The one thing that should join the whole country together is people and their ability and freedom to vote. Even if the option to abstain is among the choices


The votes are still counted, as long as you turn up. As you will see below

Personally I think there are a lot of good people doing a lot of good things and I applaud those people however I really don't give a damn what party they may represent. If they are worthy of my vote and do what is right locally they will have it. If they don't they won't. But I will make the effort to turn out and vote!!
