Well, it took me just AGES to leave a message here. I have been furtively checking the threads, admiring the friendships, envying the easiness of your repartee! And now I am part of it all. I hope it does'nt become addictive!

Boo Hoo Daisy called me an oldie. I thought a man's as old as the woman he feels. Been on the phone to a 2nd cousin in the North East and we are planning a reunion to link in with the North East Meet. Lol

Louise I think this is an old thread judging by the date of the post before you, I would imagine the nudger has been around again! Maz x

Maz I wonder the reasoning behind nudging some of these threads? I have just come back on Genes after watching Michael Caine in 'The Quiet American' have you seen it? bet Dave has I really enjoyed it, set in 1950's Vietnam Graham Greene wrote it, when I heard Michael Caine and Graham Greene thought it was worth checking out and I am glad I did. I am still wondering about the nudging thing Its really strange!!! Pat x

Hi Buttercup, well you had me fooled You seemed so comfortable on all your threads I thought you'd been here for ages. Enjoyed our story telling that was fun. I'm new to this too and blundering around. Added to a couple of threads and they seemed to die..oh dear hope it's not me I might think no-one likes me..Boo Hoo. I'll keep at it though determined not to hide behind the sofa but you know that's where I'll be if I ever get to a meet. Sue Oh woops, Yes must read the dates so Buttercup You have been here a little while now then after all..
