Julessmiles Posted January 16, 2014 Author #76 Share Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) There are a lot of us on both - Infoqueen, Dreamgirl, Jakanne , Little Nell, Cruising Linda, Topsey, Berwyn, to name just a small few.... I am on FB anyway to keep in touch with friends & family but I admit to enjoying the closed Thomson unofficial group on there because it is easy to post and also easy to add photos & also nice to put a face to a name which you can't do on here & I have never been able to upload photos to here either. I still love this forum though & gain so much information & also hope give a little in return :) Edited January 16, 2014 by Julessmiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnowl1950 Posted January 16, 2014 #77 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I don't use fb either...been quite happy without it for 60+ years. That's what I tell myself anyway :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geomagot Posted January 16, 2014 #79 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Looks simple doesn't it! well it isnt just spent a frustrating 30 minutes being bounced around between facebook and bt yahoo , one of those never ending loops you get into. :mad: Facebook can get stu..fed and i will have to resign myself to being the only user left on the cruise forums. People have noticed all the cruise forums posting totals are reducing as people take up with facecloth? i'm still here too...i'm not a member of any other cruise related groups/forums....just this one:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geomagot Posted January 16, 2014 #81 Share Posted January 16, 2014 i tend to prefer forums with very enticing titles such as: the pavement slab enthusiasts society.....not what its cracked up to be:) the omg someone said something mean about me group....i didnt cry...well nearly:p and 50 usefull uses for a stray grandma....such as tying your dicki bow and making a wholesome meal for 5 out of a turnip:cool: like i said...its adictive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted January 16, 2014 #82 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Well the problems are all down to the awful internet Explorer and how it interacts with the equally rubbish BT Mail. So i now have a Google Chrome browser and an email address on their Gmail Guess what! Joining facecloth as an alias was a doddle. I have found and joined the P&O group and think i have found the Thomson group but nothing happened when i clicked the join group button? Is there a time delay etc etc?

Have you joined the correct Thomson cruises group? This is the link to the "closed/private" group. Last time a new member was added was 4 hours ago...... Won't let me add link - try looking for Thomsoncurises - the person who set up the group spelt it wrong; not sure if that was on purpose or not!

I think you have to be accepted onto the group as it is a closed group. The admin group will do it when they log on. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I am in - no idea what is going on though :) ooops, crossed postings. Reminds me of when we got email installed at work. One engineer was going on holiday so forwarded his emails to a colleague in another building. What he did not know was the man had gone on holiday. 2 days of messages bouncing back and forward a few thousand times a second caused the server to crash :D Edited January 16, 2014 by davecttr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
