Any members having difficulty logging in today will be pleased to know you are no longer asked to log in via your social media platform! It was an experiment that cocked up badly, we won't be trying that in a hurry again! - Ed

I do not use any social media like facebook/twitter/instagram etc etc a luddite maybe but kids and young adults ruin there lives IMO with the constant use of such things...ok the old gits going to get his slate and chalk out now and write a withering barb to Nev for attempting such a thing!

This site (& a great one it is too) is the nearest i have ever got to any type of on-line media (if thats what you call it!!)
Never done F/B ,Twatter or any other social media...one i havnt got time & second there are more interesting things than telling people what you have just had for dinner!!

Glad to see more like me. Got a phone so basic, I accidentally left it in the pub on a table. I went up town and by the time I'd realised I'd left it, an hour had gone by. I rushed back to said pub, only to find the phone actually hadn't moved! Best deterrent in the world, a crap version of anything. Apparently it does the internet but no idea how you get on it. Infact I don't very often take the phone out. I don't even have an idea what Instagram is.
