What I usually do is the following (if you know this.. please ignore)
On the message button on the top corner you'll get the screen below.
When you hover over the grey area a blue mark appears, click that and 10 of the message will be set to read at one..
So 10 clicks, for 99 helps a bit.
Also below that is a 'MUTE" button.. that seems to have helped getting the unwanted lines down

I do thank you Bart. i thought I'd been forgotten. OK , so I've found this very useful but not answering the tinkling music that has kept happening without a message flashing in from the bottom of my screen on the right hand side.. As happens it hasn't happening today so I'm hoping whatever caused it has stopped ? I appreciate your response
