Hi happygolucky. I've been here ages and only just discovered this week that all the abbreviations are explained in the Acronym List at the top!!! (Wish I had known earlier - would have saved me scratching my head for many an hour!)

its funny really....i still daren't ask anyone what an abreviation means....as i feel daft for not knowing....and the paranoia sets in as i still think i'll get laughed at!!!!!!!!

coppertop · 21/10/2004 14:23

I used to do lots of guessing too, MrsF. Paranoid? Us?

Welcome, happygolucky. I'm fairly new to this too and you do gradually get used to it. They are a lovely welcoming lot on this site and very supportive too

Get your revenge by making some up. TWST.

LOL thank you all! I will get there... I only know the basics... and some of the less polite ones. [shock) I wonder if that will work? oh well, Thanks for welcoming me and for helping. I will have a good look round.

See you soon.

NQWWW......I LIKE YOUR IDEA OF MAKING SOME UP!

And another thing....ever since we have had to TYPE WORDS TO GET THE EMOTICONS....I think i have only used 1!!!!!!

Now either that shows my need for sameness/routines/hating change (OOOOH! sound familiar?)

or i am just lazy....but i simply cannot get the hang of it1

MrsF - The old smiley was reinstated by popular demand . You still have to type the others but the one still works in the old way.

mrsforgetful · 21/10/2004 21:54

you have made x100 my day!!!!

ooh! !!!!!!!

You are so funny, I think I'm going to like it here! What happens if you type the wrong letter, an a instead of an i? ooops

Ooh! I didn't realise the other old smileys worked too.

Happygolucky - We only let MrsF out on special occasions. Then it's straight back to the padded cell for her.

mrsforgetful · 21/10/2004 22:23

[smug ] ....well couldn't resist showing off!!!

Happygolucky.....watch out it is contageous!!!

welcome!!!

p.s has anyone 'new' got a laminator as we like to chat about those too!!!

coppertop · 21/10/2004 22:25

You'll be making up for lost time now, MrsF. Smiley heaven!

A big welcome from me too, Happygolucky.

coppertop · 21/10/2004 22:26

I'm surprised you haven't asked Tech for a laminator section, MrsF. We could have a whole thread dedicated to POUCHES.

mrsforgetful · 21/10/2004 22:28

shall i go on!!!!???

mrsforgetful · 21/10/2004 22:29

Dingle · 21/10/2004 22:34

Not to hot on the abbreviations either, have to check the list frequently...but ROFL at all those smileys MrsF!! (would normally put a smiley here but it hardly seem worth it doing only the 1!)

coppertop · 21/10/2004 22:43

Blimey, MrsF! I bet your fingers are aching now. (ooer madam!)

mrsforgetful · 21/10/2004 22:43

mrsforgetful · 21/10/2004 22:43
