Apologies to my older readers – I’ve been introduced to the wonders of instant messaging and am finding it very useful to organise and arrange things.

Needless to say I’ve been using new words like ‘lol’ and ‘probs’ in recent posts and the likes of ‘obv’ and ‘K’ and ‘meh’ and punctuation symbols like and and a whole host of others will probs start turning up. lol! (Ha Ha, they actually turn out as emoticons on here too! lol!)

Got a bit confused when I thought ‘brb diner’ was the name of a band member and ‘tbh’ and ‘atm’ are only now becoming meaningful.

Oh and the word ‘meh’ took ages to understand, and I’m still not exactly sure that I do – meh!

And I do have to say, it took me a while to learn how to have extended conversations with people, and often two separate and different conversations at the same time.

I was at some points waiting a couple of minutes or more for a reply to a message, when all that was happening was the person at the other end was simply multi-tasking.

I’d like to say these people are ‘working’ but they’re probably ‘youtubing’ or, horror of horrors, playing Tetris on facebook – Roberto, the secrets out! lol!

I very soon learnt that multi-tasking was the only way forward, so you won’t be surprised to learn that I’ve been writing this post whilst chatting away to Jon!

Oh well, at least my touch-typing’s improving with all this messaging lark (Y) even if my spelling isn’t (N)!
