I work in a school so won't accept any from neighbours (live round corner from school) or ex pupils - friends, family + of course, lots of teaching staff. Have to be careful!

Some friends now abroad, F'book great for keeping in touch, even if people go on hol, lol! x

i find face book very time consuming!
it take me ages to look at everything that people send me, reply and forward stuff.
i seem to have no more time for anything else! lol

I watched a program on bbc1 this morning called 'click' its on the morning program around 7.30am. They were talking about facebook and how no gooders were using information to steal peoples ids. Although you might hide your personal info, the innocent info you do show is used. Unfortunately I was at work when it was on and I got distracted. All I'm saying is be careful. xx

l found my son on face book after 12 years last week wished that l had not bothered as he sent me a nasty email via them l wont be getting in touch with him again unless he grows up
l thought that him being 29 he might at long last have seen things from my point of view but he seems to have a warpt view of the past and not moved forward

Hi Moonshine

All you do is enter brief details - some of friends give schools, jobs, ... I don't, also watched TV prog bout it, went straight in and changed. Same here, only few know my real name (family reasons).

Marilyn, hun - ((((hugs))))) so sad to hear. Not nice hun - my BM deserted and abandoned me and my
bro (he was baby) - actually she did to 7, discovered there are more but don't hate her, wouldn't do that, however I feel. more hugs ((((hugs)))) 2 sides to every story. x
