Hi, Carol. Putting my serious head on, I'm glad I joined the chat room a couple of months ago. I've made new friends, met a few people. learned new things, and, since the old tape-sponding thing is so last century, this chat room has replaced it. Those of us who are new to either tech stuff or, indeed, trying to come to terms with a newly diagnosed sight loss, may well get some encouragement and ideas from the rest of the group, who all bring our differing experiences together. Jim. -----Original Message----- From: Carol O'Connor - Email Address: missbossyboots33@xxxxxxxxx Sent On: 29/08/2012 10:00 Sent To: guide chat - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] question for you all here Good morning all Why do you like chat forum? what has it done to you all? tell you what its done for me found new way of communicating with new friends old friends it nice to hear what everybody is up too on here and its great fun too If chat closed how would you react I certainly would get very upset because then would lose contact of you all another thing too sinced been on here if it were not for finding vanessa on here I would not have found out about all this craft stuff all the links and articles she sent in about craft I would never have found out about the machines and stuff that is available too so yea be upset if it closed wow look at all what we chatted about in the past list is endless we all talked about problems tv food colleges schools equipments films each other found out too shopping online tips for one and other kids too holidays weather money carers most of all friendship jokes poems articles news lottery numbers by anthony wow endless isn't it? enjoy it love carol xxxx ----- No virus found in this message.
