Well you do look sad on MySpace with just Tom for a friend. Since Tom is EVERYBODY's friend that's not very good going, so I've asked you to add me as your second friend. Hope you will accept a reprobate like me!

Thanks Janea!

TBH, I only set them up today, so I wasn't expecting any "friends" for a bit...(and most of my "real" friends wouldn't touch these sorts of websites with a barge-pole - more interested in downing beers and playing sports than "messing around online"...).

And I love accepting reprobates....(if only I knew what that meant 8) )

regards

Tim

Sadly I find MySpace rather addictive and waste a lot of time there when I should be doing housework and feeding the children.

Most of my favourite bands are there, as are my real life friends who are followers of said bands, so we can send each other messages faster than emailing. AND I get to hear new bands' music, as I click through my friend's "friends" AND I get to chat with other Morris dancers which might mean new bookings next year. See, I don't just use my PC to crunch WU's!

Just started updating Myspace (at the behest of my kids):

Seems a bit sparse but early days.
