Oh my gosh--I have spent the last few hours just reading--what a wonderful group of people! I am so glad that I found you all! I am already recruiting!

My question to you all is can someone give me a basic tour of how to best utilize the forum format? I am very computer challenged--to put it mildly.

Thanks--B

Welcome bhibby. It's great to see you landed here in the forums. Woohoo. Speaker's given you some great advice.

Some women use the Active Topics at the top of each page to see what the latest is at BWS. That will give you all the most recent posts.

On the right side of the forum home page are all the latest topics within each post.

Click on the topic on the left side and you will see tons and pages of old posts. You could literally spend forever here reading.

Jump in wherever you like.

Welcome bhibby,

Great that you happened by. This is the best place on the web. Good people hang out here. You'll find whatever topic you would like to chat about, but if you don't just post and you'll get lots of responses.

Welcome aboard.
Sandpiper

Welcome, bhibby. You will figure it all out soon and then you will wonder why it ever seemed so intimidating. We have all been there.

So, what brought you here? What are your interests?

Have fun reading and posting and I look forward to getting to know you through these highly addictive forums.

bhibby, from the second highest poster on this forum, except for our leader Dotsie, I'll advise you to just come in, get comfy, read the things that are of the most interest to you and them add your two cents, if you have something you'd like to add. Then I go back and read all the other posts so as not to slight anyone, and answer those too. Yep, it takes TIME but it is time well worth taking. A hearty WELCOME to you!!!

Thanks mucho Brenda. Looks like you have 3 months seniority on me in here, but not nearly so noisy
