Hi Jan. There are thousands of forums and websites with forums on, may be best to ask carol and clare they go on various forums, long time ago when children were young we were on aol which are all monitored and the forums there can be parental safe and numerous cattegories, if anyone is not nice they get a warning or are banned, in our case i think where we can be parental safe or monitored like here on guide is a good thing, the forums across the globe have categories like disability, or hobbies or religeon or photography or dating etcetera, it is best to know the category you prefer, then next to make sure it is a safe one, as in monitored forum, steven on guide is of tafn. vanessa. -----Original Message----- From: Jan - Email Address: j.jk.downes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent On: 04/06/2012 16:46 Sent To: chat guide - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guide.chat] For Vanessa Hi Vanessa, I thought that you would be the girl that could possibly help with my question,and that is .... I would like to make more friends overseas and here at home in Britain,I wonder if you know of any guide accessible web sites with chat forum's,is this a tall order. I guess that if anyone knows it's you. I have heard of a web site named T.A.F.N but wonder if anyone else has tried to get on it with only using guide. I am sure that there must be other chat lines as well as this one,also it would be good to share peoples experiences here and abroad on holidays for the blind traveller,travelling alone. I would just love to hear about holidays that have been good.Look forward to hearing from you,and of course anyone else that can enlighten me. Kindest thoughts for you Vanessa,Love Jan.
