Well not to worry, my Mum's 71 and she's never been near a computer, and wouldn't know where to start, though she loves it when I take my lappy over and show her photos and stuff.

Thanks TW. I was speaking to my cousin tonight and discovered she is 90 (she usually takes ten years off!) but she sends emails like you wouldnt believe..mostly fabricated family history..lol BC¬XX

Thank you Rose.

BC you should be able to find somewhere in your e mail list ( in File and when you click on file it opens a list, it says new when you click on new you can see folder ) If you then click on folder you will see another folder appear in the e mail lists of folders. You can then drag all the writing group stuff into that folder.

Not sure if that is clear maybe somebody can elaborate.

BC, think of your files as the sheets of paper, and your folders as the cardboard wallets you put them in. Files go in folders.

I'll have to come down yours in the spring and organise that pooter of yours won't I? LOL

Oh I know what I meant to say... for anyone wanting to have a bit of 'advice' on storytelling, I caught part of a tv schools programme today , aimed at teenagers, and it gave some good tips, worth looking out for if you are at home during the day.

Spot on Rose, I wrote it last year for My Weekly, tailored for it.

Only trouble is, someone else had a story in it which was so similar, that even though I had written it last January, this was August, I felt I might have been accused of plagiarism. I was soooo annoyed. Now My Weekly are not accepting work from authors they haven't used before. Damn!

Ineed to re-work it slightly for PF.

Ann and Teresa as you're both here at once can i please cheat and comment on both your stories? Only really to say that I can see both of them as being publishable in something like People's Friend or womans weekly...(though I haven't read for a few years but I expect they are still the same )

All mine come into my inbox. I read them, then they show as read. Once I've replied to them, I move them into another folder.

It's worked so far.....I think. LOL

I haven't done any reading today, so there are lots to catch up on, and I will asap. Monday is usually a busy day for me. Tomorrow I shall get my corner in the bedroom re-organised. It's been in a mess since Christmas so I haven't really got back to writing properly. So, it's up to my eyes in hoover, bin bags, dusters and polish tomorrow morning, then back to MY space in the afternoon.

Sorry I have totally lost track of what I have read and if I have answered! My apologies if I haven't replied.

But it's all great stuff:-) BCXX
