Its a nightmare learning new things!! Fun though!!

So, when you log on you get the first page, click on "Forums" and the whole list is there. Choose "The Shed" for this page and there you are!!

Hope thats clear, have a look around and see what else there is, good place to find all sorts is "The Basics" there is no question too stupid, I know cos I have asked lots of them!!

Enjoy!!

Thanks so much, I couldn't log off until someone answered , I am used to the bbc website and having heard so much about this one I thought I would see what it's like, I muddled through registration but then Ipressed so many buttons to get here Icould'nt remember where I was and how to get back tomorrow. Would you believe it if I told you I used to be a delivery driver (with this sense of direction)

Well, you've certainly landed on a good site!

Luckily, being at home, I don't have to log out.

The whisky or the haar?

If you scroll up, just below the LL of Allotments4All you will see the word Home. Click on that and it takes you back to the main forum list, from whence you can go to whichever section you desire.

Thanks everyone, but how do I bookmark something I want to save and how do I retrieve it ?( I feel so stupid asking these questions) good job no-one knows me  ;D , and to answer Tim's question its a Glasgow expression my granny used to say, when she meant "How would I know" when I asked a dumb question. PS what Haar?

No offence meant Scotch!! Haar is a name for a Scottish sea fog I believe!!!

Also, dont worry about the spelling!!! As long as we get the drift you will still get answers to your questions!!!

No offence taken, I think your right about the sea fog, my granny probly meant the answer to my insessant questions were as elusive as scotch-mist(see answer to Tims question)

Thanks everyone, but how do I bookmark something I want to save and how do I retrieve it ?

At the top of the page you should see the word Favourites. Click on it.  A list of sites already  chosen for you should appear on the left of your screen. Right at the top of the list you should find the word ADD. Click on that and that will put the site you are on into Favourites (another word for Bookmarking)
To return to that site Click on Favourites at anytime you are on line, then when the list appears click on the site you wish to revisit.
Hope this is clear enough for you.
And don't worry, the only daft question is the one you did not ask when you should have done!

Don't start on the world until you get your plot sorted out. You have a plot/garden, S'Mist?

Hi Kenkew, sorry I did'nt get back sooner, just in from work, work all weekend, to answer your question, my house sits on an acre site , half is fenced off as a field , sheep keep the grass down until I can sort out money and time for pollytunnels to grow tomatoes and other woosie edibles that dont like this weather. A wee bit of the yard is fenced off and supports wildlife (sounds good ) E.G slugs, slugs , slugs, weeds, rabbits, and more weeds(not so good in reality) this is the bit I want to grow strawberries, blackberries blueberries etc. and at the backdoor I have a long narrow bit of yard I intend to turn into a safe play area, (for budding Titchmarch,and budding Monty to reak havock) a seating area (for OH and me) and a potted herb garden(though I doubt it will improve the cooking). I think I NEED to win the lottery, or work longer hours and live longer to do everything I want. So what about you? what have you got? what do you want? where do you live?(OH , I live in  N.Ireland) are you sane or mad? (ONLY KIDDING, NO OFFENCE MEAN'T) I know I'm mad. ;D ;D ;D
