Poor Young Plummo !

Does that mean the firm gets an extra hours work out of you each day ?

I don't use face-book at all, but two Grand-Children do, so I heard a rumour the site had experienced a few problems of a somewhat unsavoury nature !

Well, if there was any work to do...

Most of the problems with Facebook seem to do with 'stalking' but as you can restrict access to various members, that shouldn't be a problem!

Amy, you should join my group - Facebook Addicts Rally Together (F.A.R.T.) It's a self-help group that will help you come to terms with your terrible addiction.

Is Fiona a member, Marty ?

ALLEGEDLY - The face-book incident was rather nasty, or at least it could have been if the powers that be hadn't nipped it in the bud !

I don't think she is although there is a Fiona Bruce Appreciation Society group, of which I am, of course, a member... Do you have any more info on the incident to which you refer?
My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. We’ll see about that.

Only 2nd/3rd. hand info from eldest grand-daughter.

Someone who she 'talks' to on there's family had a visit from the plain-clothes plod who, allegedly, were checking up on a 15 year old boy who wasn't.

I think the word 'grooming' spring to mind.

Need I say more ?

Thanks Mary.

As I said, I'm only going by what a very bright 16 year old told me.

Is 'FaceParty' anything to do with 'FaceBook' ?

Did anyone see the investigation a TV reporter did into the 'FaceParty' website last night ?

Might have had something to do with my previous post.
