Well, I am on day 2 of my existence on this forum and I have spent all morning on it!!!! AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHH:eek: And here is me bleating about how little time I have to devote to my jewellery!:o I did want to get to 15 posts as quickly as possible but it has gone beyond that now...am I addicted???? It is so interesting to read about you all and piece together pictures of your work and philosophy. I have been without contact with arty people for so long - I can't get enough of it now...and all UK citizens with UK frustrations...what bliss!!!!:D
So come on...admit it...how many hours a day??
Do you keep your computer on all day so you can nip back to have an update??
Go on - you can tell me....
I won't tell a soul.......:D

Hi Julie,
Now you've passed the magical number of 15 posts, you now have the ability to post live links, imagery etc. Just makes it easier to share pics of your work, videos, blog etc.

Hi, apike. Can you tell me how you get the website: Twitter: Blog: Forum: bit at the bottom of your post? Do you have to write it manually each time or is there some sort of magic button...I'm showing my techy green-ness here!!:o

I logon every morning and then have a quick look during the day to see whats going on, when I feel like a break from making things.... trouble is I'm not making as much as I should be. Then there's the evenings - got to see if there's any new interesting threads happening. ha ha :D

Its great, I love it. Thanks Cookson.

I usually pop on in the morning in the hour between breakfast and gym (if I go). Hubby leaves about 6.45 if home (sometimes works away) and I wave him goodbye and try not to go back to bed (otherwise it will be 11am before I know it!) although this morning I sat in bed to finish the cup of tea he brought me.

Sometimes I'll have a look in the evening if the pooter is on and no-one else is on it.

Coooooo!!! You've got him well trained!!:D
I think this thread has been really funny!!! And to think people are worried about swine flu....they don't know how infectious this site is!!! You (sorry we:o) are all as bad as each other!!
I am going to try to ration myself today..............I feel myself weakening already!!
Well - this session has been breakfast (crumbs all over the keyboard!!)
Then there'll be elevenses...lunch....tea at 3....perhaps a bit around dinner time....just before I go to bed.... Yup!! I'm practically cured!!:D

Yeah, I'm addicted, but I've been looking for this sort of thing for about a year!

Its very difficult to google a question (being self taught sometimes you just don't know where to start!), I don't think I've ever got a good answer to anything on the net! Now I know where to come when I get stuck!

Plus I don't really know any 'arty' people either, and everyone seems really nice here!
