...........I cannot keep up.

active convos are whizzing ppast so quickly I am missing if someone comes on a thread I have started/replied on until ages after, and then I fear people think I am being rude if I don;t reply/respond.

MN is fab, really it is, but when I come here for some light relief/downtime/soothing-like-minded-chat, I want to feel as tho I am contributing to it, or even > being acknowledged as a decent member.

and on a friday, it all moves so damn fast, it feels as tho I am swimming (well, fighting more like) against the current.

I always hide threads that aren't for me.

I thought everyone did that?

TrinityIsLovingHerLittleRhino · 22/05/2009 20:47

rockhopper is soem weird thing that comes to club penguin on a big boat
the kids see that he is coming from looking through a telescope type thing but they see him out to sea and dont know exactly when he is coming
then when he comes there are different games to play on his shipo and other things to buy and stuff....I think

KingCanuteIAm · 22/05/2009 20:47

Thank you Trinity

Shiney you don't know what Rockhopper is? Looks like you are out of teh gang then, sorry

Trinity, can't you just write in big letters on a piece of paper ROCKHOPPER HERE and stick it to the PC monitor?

< waves to new drinkers arrivals >

It just takes ages to hide them all, Fab- I mainly ignore them, unless they have some anxiety-provoking words in the title like Working Families Tax Credit or Budgeting or things like that...

TrinityIsLovingHerLittleRhino · 22/05/2009 20:49

can i join?.... crappy internet connection means i have to simply avoid the heated threads altogether as i can't keep up... it takes 4/5 mins for the page to refresh sometimes, reading through is more than i can manage... actually posting is damn near impossible

KingCanuteIAm · 22/05/2009 20:53

Yes I had to peel ds off the pc at bedtime tonight
Write the note now and put it on the stairs, otherwise the Stella will rob the thought from your mind by bedtime.

Shiney, as you now know do you want to be a beach again?

PT, I was on dial up until about 1yr ago, it was quite amusing to see just how out of date my response could be on a fast moving thread

TrinityIsLovingHerLittleRhino · 22/05/2009 20:55

oooh canute whilst I remember
you are something of a dog training extraordinaire aren't you?

how do I get DUkes recall to become soemthing I can rely on
At the moment it is more when he feels like it ifswim and he listens to dh all the time...

why is that?
