This whole forum is just amazing. I can't keep up with all the posts in the different places. Just trying to catch up on the Anything goes for Uni postings is taking me ages. I have spent the last 4 days after all the other jobs I have to do, trying to catch up and still I am only up to page 76!!!!
-
How do we catch up...
I actually have no idea ???
I'm on my computer studying a lot, so I always have an extra browser open with the forum on it. I'm usually sitting here getting impatient for someone to come and post something ;D
-
Pumpkin pie that is fun y. A lot of stuff we go on with is nonsense. We are just chatting about nothing much but you may find that gem of info so it is worth catching up.

hi Gert, Yeah just posted on anything goes for uni that I have finally reached the last page entry, and I do enjoy just going through the chat, as you can pick up the odd hint or something here and there. Anyway, loved the photos of your place, the palms etc, lucky you.
-
Gee PP you done a great job reading all of that topic. Even when your on the forum several times a day it can be hard to keep up with everything. :)
-
PP, I come on here in the morning, then when I get to work.
it helps me if its quiet, otherwise its just me at work... :)
-
I dont read every thread, just dont have time.
:)
-
I'm like Halley, I simply don't have time to read every thread, which is a shame because, as Gert said, hidden in amongst all our general chit chat there is often a gem so I am missing that. When I first joined the forum was not nearly as active as it is now and reading every post was no problem, but I think membership has about doubled since then and keeping up now is almost a full time job. We are lucky our moderators are so diligent, they must spend so much time on here, I don't know how they do it!
-
Hi Pumpkin. I try to read every recipe post and try to keep up as best I can with the other chit chat. Its much easier on tapatalk on my Ipad than i found on a PC
DH asks what I'm doing - I tell him I'm catching up with my newest best friends.
Ps. It's an addiction. I used to get up and check my emails, now I get up and go straight to this forum :-)

It is fun to see where people live. I am lucky for sure. Always warm at least.

It's almost impossible to keep up with everything . . I don't know how the moderators manage!! I think it's just a case of jumping in where you can . . . .the tips and info that pop up here and there are just amazing . . ;D
-
i do read a lot of them but most of the time i will not comment on them :-))
-
I can't keep up any more, miss a day coming to the forum and there could be ten pages in one thread to read, you lot do chat a lot lol. DH will quite often ask me what I am laughing at.
-
I agree too. I can't keep up with every post either and do miss some things sometimes. When I joined there were only just over 300 members so it was a lot quieter then. ;D
-
I can't help myself looking at this forum when I check emails, tho I haven't got through all the shopping thread (why did I start looking there???) and the forum names one too, tho they are very interesting stories they take a while to read thru!! :D
I don't read them all, but love what I do read! Think the Uni thread grows the quickest tho. :)
-
I had to look after Uni, when she is not sleeping well.. :)
-
Gotta say I am loving this forum already! :) And probably spending too much time on it ;) ;D
-
Sometimes its just impossible and really time consuming to open up each topic. What I do is go to the Home page, go down the bottom where it says "View the most recent posts on the forum." click on that and just read through all the recent postings and comment on the odd one here and there ;)
I then get to the point where I last read, and then click on "Show unread posts since last visit" up the top next to my avatar and delete them all so I don't have 1,000's of unread ones.
-
I can't keep up with everything I always check the chit chat and main meals and anything else if I have time. Quiet times at work I can get onto the forum
-
MY DH knows I am on here....... :)
But I love my thermomix...
-
I used to try and post on everything. Now a days I tend to read some carefully and skim others. It used to be able to be done in an hour, but not anymore. I find with the ipad I can now have a look after dinner while I watch TV.
-
I noticed you have been on more since you got the iPad Cookie ;D
-
I don't keep up unfortunately, no way I would have the time. Every few days I mark all posts as read and try to start over.
-
Cookie loves her iPad .
Gert.
-
Cookie does love her ipad. Between TMX, ipad and books there isn't much time for anything else. ;D ;D
I have downloaded an app called Little Things. DD put me onto it. I can't put it down. You have to find little things in a big picture to ultimately solve a puzzle which moves you on to bigger and better things. An amazing time waster.
-
I don't want to hear it cookie. I have angry birds which I have not touched in about 6 months. I do not want to start on games again. This forum is bad enough.
Gert
-
Angry birds is another work place favourite along with shades of grey. I haven't done either.
-
This is rather addictive, isn't it?
My iPad makes it easy to dip in and out of the forum. I often have it on my lap in the evenings whilst the TV is on.
I even take it to swimming training, tether it to my phone and catch up for an hour. Problem is, last month for the first time ever, I went over my data plan and had to pay more for my phone.
-
I use mine in the bath.
Gert
-
I have a great job on the computer all day.....
-
I'm like you Obbie - I have it open on my PC all day and pop in and out every so often, it's the only way I even stand a chance of keeping up, and even then I only get the chance to read about 1/3 of the posts.
-
My ipad goes everywhere with me.
Like cookie between my ipad & my TM & my recipe books, time goes.
:)
-
CP36 that is a great way to keep up with things. I have been going about it the hard way, jotting down the pages I have read up to and then going back when I have time. I obviously haven't learnt all the ins and outs of using the workings of the forum yet, but I am sure with all your helpful input will get there one day. Thanks. :)
-
sad for those who only spend 1/2 hr here a day.... :)
-
I've become a bit addicted, as there are so many tips and hints here and there, that I am worried I may miss something good, also I have purchased quite a few items just from reading the posts.
-
You have to watch the shopping thread, especially, PP, it's a very dangerous place to be. Personally, I'm too scared to go there too often!
