Hi John ,

Please send your excellent suggestion to Help& Support.

in the meantime, the idiomatic expression -

I usually paste the dialogue into Google Translation, but some meaning does get lost in translation. A translation of the idiomatic phrases would definitely be helpful. I thought it meant that Daisy had lost her appetite! ;-) MDR/LOL
