Welcome curlygirl!
I understand you're another person who knows who I am even though i don't think we've ever met. (Yes, my hair did used to be short!

)
Watch out though - I know your boss pretty well, you know...hehe

[quote="Epykat"]So, what part of you is it that's Curly??
Hmmm, I have many visible curly parts growing from my head. I have other curly parts that I like to keep to myself, or to very special people

. I also think my personality embodies curliness....

Welcome Curlygirl
I don't post much. Rarely get to use the computer actually
You need to watch that Bellybabe one. She's cheeky but harmless.
Good place for the goss but watch you don't get hooked or you could find your nearest and dearest forget what you look like...curls and all!

And have you noticed how eerily quiet the High Street is? Coz we're all on here.........no need to go out.......Tesco online.........

Yes, BUT they aren't really curly are they? I would say more wavy or zig-zaggy.

Thanks for all your welcomes and I'll try and not get hooked.

Its a bit late and they would never amass enough votes between now and 9 30. What about a newbies avatar contest?
Must have less than 10 posts.
Competition open until a week tonight.
Any theme.
Someone else makes the Announcement.

Hi Mr Spoon, or should I say welcome back? There's a promising community website here that could do with some help if you have any spare time?
