You're right Uggers - some people must add friends of friends. I think I have about 12 people and don't always talk to them all.

Uggers - my computer is switched off also, but according to my Facebook account I am online all the time!! get it?

I'm glad you are feeling better anyway, and back at work, getting a sun tan!

Okay Uggers -- why do people do this?

Why start a thread with a post that says nothing, and then get around to putting a post with the content in it?

It's beyond me.

What happens every single blasted time is someone comes along in the meantime and asks what the question is, or what someone is pulling his/her hair out over.

(a) What's the point of the vacant opening posts?

(b) Why hasn't everybody figured out that this is what people do, for whatever reason they do it, and so why doesn't everybody just wait the two minutes it takes for the next post to come along?

Just one of those things I lie awake at night wondering about. I'm sure you have the answers!

lol Kathryn...errrrr....I probably did it cos it was an ill thought out spur of the moment thing - just a crappy post on a message board as opposed to a dissertation;)

And b) cos there's flap all happening on here this evening and people were probably over excited in case it was going to be something of great interest or importance - must have been disappointing. And also, we are attempting to be witty when we slip in first, looking impatient:)
