crossed posts again!

I'm working tomorrow. Tuesday a pretty low-key local day - library and meeting a friend with a dd a bit younger than mine. Wednesday I've promised dd we'll go into London to 'see the sights' (someone bought her Katie in London for her birthday and now she's obsessed with the idea of the lions in Traf. Square ... ) and maybe go to see the Wallace and Grommit film (treat day for dd really - I get paid that day!) Thursday no plans and gonna slob out. Friday back to work.

I've thought about it before, cb, but it seemed a real hassle to set it up as I'm on a mac.

I haven't actually but I can get a yahoo one set up fairly quickly. Will that help? What's the benefit of having MSN? I've never really known what it does. Is it a chat forum?

OP posts:
mummylonglegs · 23/10/2005 22:12

Nah, gonna have to do it from work tomorrow - what I find a lot on my computer is that some sites are just not properly visible, I mean I can't fill in the right boxes, the info's all scrambled up. Actually I guess I could use my work email? Do I have to be logged on at that email address in order to use MSN?

charliebat · 23/10/2005 22:30

OP posts:
charliebat · 23/10/2005 22:31

ok try tommorow and get back to me...

mummylonglegs · 23/10/2005 22:33

What do you mean, cb? Could I set it up using my work email? Would I then be able to get into it from home email? Sorry, I'm not a technical dunce usually

OP posts:
charliebat · 23/10/2005 22:35

try setting up a msn addy at work
you will be able to access it from home

mummylonglegs · 23/10/2005 22:42

Ok boss! I'll let you know.

I think I may turn in soon. Have you been watching that Panorama programme about 'postcode poverty'? It's SO like the area I live in it's depressing ...

tillykins · 23/10/2005 22:53

thank you! Feel very proud of myself - but astonished at how much I would still like one!
