Christine, you are more than welcome. Just take your time; one day you'll do it, I can assure you. In terms of free texts, that's the only one I can find at the moment that doesn't require things like visual verification or a Pin code that we can't even access, which can be found at http://www.cbfsms.com, which allows you to send unlimited texts to people, but requires you enter a pin code, which is in an image, before you can send it. I tried to contact them about this, only to find that the query I sent was apparently invalid! So like you I'm still looking. Anyway good luck with shopping online, and I may look at TAFN one day.
