Hello,
Sorry for your frustration on all this buying and selling stuff - we are planning to look at classifieds properly (including possibly re-housing from talk/ charging etc - we want them to be as useful as possible but not annoying) once tech's done with a few other bits and bobs on his list - customised active conversations, bookmarks, grafitti walls in MyMumsnet etc

We do know that right now it's a bit of a mess and somewhat irritating and we promise to sort in due course.

In the meantime feel free to shout, moan and grumble... whatever gets you through.

I think kewl is just "internet slang" for cool, isn't it? I mean it's not even meant to save letters - it's just a variant spelling.

I always thing it prob started because of the way some American teens say cool, like kee-ool or kyul with a sort of y sound after the hard c.

Or sunnink like that anyway. I'm hoping sunnink will catch on as a new form of something. Some of the kids round here even manage to swallow the middle altogether so it sounds more like sah-ink. That's pretty kewl .
