Google Search..Retain search requests

[oldad]

I have used Google for several years and until recently when I would initate a search and when I clicked the search button then all my previous searches would be listed in box below and I could either choose one of the earlier searches or enter a new one in the search box.

Now they are not listed and I must enter the desired search each time in the search box.

Where have I messed up and is it possible to reenable the feature that retains the searches?

Many thanks in advance
