I've just tried using the search box at the top right of the page and also the one in the Home/ Forum/ Help/ Links/ Search menu bar and both of those seem to generate results ok, so I'm not sure why you're having an issue.Are you using PC or phone? Which browser are you using? Do you have any script/ cooking blocking software installed?
I'm using Firefox on a PC, so you may see a slightly different screen to me, but I just tried searching for Oil and "Fergie in France" and your above post came up.Without your name, I got 30 results. Can you try using a different browser?
Make sure you use the search button on screen on the right hand side.It doesn't do anything if you hit go on your keyboard.
This is on my phone...
