doing links - which I have never been able to master. So please read no further and look at something more interesting.

It's quite embarrassing to have to practice so publicly (as it won't work first time) but can't think of any other way.

Here goes: irrelevent

Well done you did it

I took about 3 weeks of constantly getting it wrong for it to work

OMG it worked!!!

I've tried that perhaps a dozen times before and have always cocked it up previously

sorry, just being nosey
don't worry links don't always work for me either

snafu · 16/02/2005 12:13

Can we try and make this the longest ever thread on MN?

Thanks Gwenick. You weren't supposed to be looking

I know HMC - but if you put 'ignore' in a thread title then people are always going to look in

Tsk! Tsk! (mock irritation, but really quite pleased that people have noticed my first successful link attempt - no longer a technophobe luddite)

Well I'm impressed as I can't do links either.

WigWamBam · 16/02/2005 14:00

Erm - if you had just previewed the message instead of posting it, you could have checked whether you had got your link right or not from the preview ... wouldn't have been quite so public then

PrettyCandles · 16/02/2005 14:03

But then we wouldn't have had the fun of not ignoring the thread .

Ask a woman to ignore indeed!

Twiglett · 16/02/2005 14:05

don't you tell me what to do

WigWamBam · 16/02/2005 14:05

Oh, I know ... I was just stirring a little (and bumping this back up into Active Convos so that we can prolong the not ignoring

morningpaper · 16/02/2005 14:06

reading it all

Twiglett · 16/02/2005 14:06

wouldn't mind I even clicked on the link .. that's how sad I am

I was totally expecting the bat though

littlemissbossy · 16/02/2005 14:07

don't you tell me to go away

PiccadillyCircus · 16/02/2005 14:07

I clicked on the link too .

WigWamBam · 16/02/2005 14:08

So did I ... never let a link go unclicked. Unless it's the bat

Gwenick · 16/02/2005 14:09

I also always click on links that have got a different person name in the thread just to be nosey and see what it's about

PrettyCandles · 16/02/2005 14:11

What bat?

PiccadillyCircus · 16/02/2005 14:12

Did you miss the bat

WigWamBam · 16/02/2005 14:13

Oh no - don't resurrect the bat, please don't resurrect the bat ...

PrettyCandles · 16/02/2005 14:14

If you don't want to resurrect the bat, you could always ignore this thread

Twiglett · 16/02/2005 14:15

seeing as you asked so nicely
