Was thinking...should we make it an open house affair over a few days??? We've set up the chatroom anyways...so we can make as much use of it as we want...and as there are soooo many people who might not be able to join at the time we say...we could have a 'opening' party night...maybe later on (10pm+ uk time) for those who can make it...and then once the link for the chat room has been posted people can log onto it tomorrow or throughout the weekend and use it to congratulate tina and celebrate whenevers best for you(providing tinas online that is  ) But I know shes online quite a bit....so if you stayed logged on to it when you're online Tina...people could 'drop in' for a few cosmos???  Hows that sound???
Must remind everyone...that dresscode will still be little black dress and diamonds....and remember we are as rich as we feel online...so I am going ALL OUT!!
SO PROVIDED U AGREE TINA....OPENING PARTY TONIGHT AT 5PM AMERICAN TIME/10PM BRITISH TIME????? Will post the link just before!

Sure that sounds great to me. People dropping in when they can is a good idea since everyone's schedule is so different.
Thanks again!!!
*** I was thinking of going to my belly dancing class tonight so I can only be online from 5-5:20 tonight and then again from 7pm on. Sorry!

I will try to drop in tomorrow. I didn't pipe in before 'cause I wasn't sure when you were gonna do it and I'm on PST so I am 3 hours earlier than the people on EST.
Just lemme know when you guys are in there, and I'll pop in if I can get online! I have the day off tomorrow, and am going out in the evening so I should be able to come in the afternoon, which looks like when it would be.. 10 pm in the UK is 2 pm here

Not a dork! Think they're more of a British thing actually...
It's just the bride-to-be going out for a night out or spa visit or something with all her friends - sort of her last night out as a single! (Traditionally with the 'L plates' hanging on her person, like the ones you have on your car when you're learning to drive!)
Same as a stag do that a groom-to-be would have. I think there is a US version of the name, but can't think of it at the moment... Anyone?

... we planned to post this like ten mins before it was due to 'open', but this way some people might be able to bookmark it for later/next few days, etc.
So, the link is to a web site set up specifically for this hen party, which only contains two pages - one which features the chat room, and one which is kind of a graphical guestbook - you can leave your good wishes for Tina and Tommy showing whereabouts in the world your good wishes are coming from. I thought it was a pretty cool idea - really hope others agree!!

Not being patronised, just thought some might not be familiar with chat rooms.
1) Click on this link: Web page
2) Scroll down to where you see a big pink area, type your IBS Boards login into the white text box and hit the 'Connect' button.
You're now in the chatroom!
• Down the left side of the screen in the grey box is the list of people who are also currently in the chat room.
• The white area is where the text that everybody types will appear
• The pale yellow box near the bottom is where you type your text – hit enter once you've finished typing and your message will move up to where everyone else can see it instantly.
• To change the colour & style (bold/italic) of your text – use the first 3 buttons just above the yellow text window.
• (You can change this as often as you like – but it's a good idea to pick your favourite when you first log in and stick to it, as it helps others understand quicker who's saying what! Colours break up the text, and make the room easier to read than if it is all in black text.)
• Inserting smilies: Click on the yellow smily face button (the 4th from the left), and select the face you want!
• Inserting sounds: Use the 5th button from the left, with the green musical note on it, to bring up a list of sounds you can insert into your message. It's best to use these sparingly, as they can get annoying!
• You can add an icon to your name to show your status – i.e. 'be right back', 'just stepped out', etc, which lets other people know if you're there or not. To do it click on the 6th button from the left, with the round green sign on it, and select your status from the popup list.
• The next button along, with 4 little arrows pointing away from eachother on it is the button you can use to open the chatroom up in a new window – rather than using the one embedded in the web page. This is all down to personal preference – but if you open it in a new window you can make it whatever size you want.

I'm back in - but it's having problems. I'll work on it later tonight so it's sorted for the rest of the weekend. Thanks though, I'll do that next time - definitely be quicker!
Stupid chatroom software!
