I've accidently hit my back button again and erased everything twice now. I give up. Why doesn't this thing have a free save button so you can go away for awhile and come back.
8:14 am

DarleenMB

hey If you're going to insult Jamie the least you could do is PAY for a membership
8:15 am
David Mitchell

Used to be free but not enough people were subscribing.
8:15 am
DarleenMB

and the saves are automatic. I quit my browser all the time and when I come back it's all still there.
8:15 am
DarleenMB

and why should it be free? It costs money to host something like this.
8:17 am
DarleenMB

And btw, it "used" to be free during the beta phase. This site has been operational now for a whole 6 weeks.
9:30 am
mirrin

if you're worried about hitting the back button and losing everything, i recommend writing down what you have on a scrap paper when you get so far you would care about losing it. i understand that the site cant give out all those perks for free.
9:33 am

Babbler

I used to socialise in town many moons ago, Moozey, but then I went off to work in Surrey and then Croydon, so that was the end of that : /
1:30 pm
Moozey

I live not that far from Croydon and I wouldn't necessarily want to socialise there
1:30 pm
Babbler

1:32 pm
Babbler

I know, Moozey. I really like that wine bar in the basement, next to M&S, and i like that bar opposite the Hogs Head, but that's about it in Croydon
1:32 pm
Moozey

are you still in Croydon? I live in Carshalton
1:33 pm
Babbler

1:37 pm
Babbler

1:37 pm
Moozey

1:39 pm
Babbler

Moozey

I gave him a 10
1:40 pm
Babbler

1:41 pm
Moozey

yeah but we were at college so his bones fixed pretty quick and he handled it very well. If it was me I would have been howling the place down
1:42 pm
