I have repeatedly deleted a small number of entries from my home calendar. The next time I start Thunderbird they reappear. The calendar is not write protected. I have exported all the entries, and then imported into a new calendar called "temp", from this I was able to delete the problem entries. I then deleted the home calendar, restarted the computer and renamed the temp calendar home. On restarting again the deleted entries reappear. Help. thank you

I have found a work around for this by editing and redating the problem entries to a date a good few decades in the future. Two days later and after restarting the computer at least twice they have not re-appeared. Problem solved (sort of!)
