I think FB should be renamed to the Keep Jeremy Kyle off job seekers allowance page ;-)

lol...i only have 9 friends and 2 of them are ex members from here and 1 is still a current member...it's good to stay in touch with old friends.

i mainly use it to watch videos of the grandchildren ...then i don't miss those special first moments.

FB is fabulous to me, through it I have caught up school friends from the 60s, they ended up in USA I hadn't seen them since the 70s, went there last year and spent a month with one and she is coming here next year for a months holiday with me.
All of which would not have happened were it not for FB. :-D

It was a good way for the family to keep up when our son was deployed overseas with the army. We also keep in touch with the family in the UK - see photos of the little ones and hear what's going on daily in their lives.

I love Facebook. It's a wonderful way to stay in touch with family, friends and ex-pupils. I'm "friends" with a lot of former members from here, it's lovely to be able to stay in touch.

I love the photos of weddings and babies and holidays.

Graham Report 12 Feb 2014 11:30

I have tried it! Can you recommend any good anti-depressants?

Island

Island Report 12 Feb 2014 11:39

Well thank you for responding finally.

Maybe you should just change your friends.

Can't get on Facebook at the moment, could it be because it is so popular with ADULTS trying to find out how family and friends are in light of recent weather events.
For me it is faster and cheaper than phoning.
