    I got the final invite the next day, if that helps.
  • Oooh Pinterest is fab! :beer:

    Only problem is that my friends on facebook have found me, and now follow me on Pinterest - which is rather annoying when they can see all these great ideas I'm claiming to be my very own (cute kids headbands, cakes, etc) and now they can clearly SEE that I'm lying - boo!:rotfl:
  • I have been looking around pinterest, I think it may prove to be a little addictive! Have requested an invite, so I hope it doesn't take too long or I may spend half the weekend checking my emails!

    I joined pinterest last year, and I love it!!! So good for finding ideas for just about anything. I try not to go on everyday as just 5 mins to have a little look around easily turns into a couple of hours :)

    Awk you guys, what have you got me started on now!!!!!:doh:

    Seen this thread yesterday so thought I would take a gander……..3 hours later I was still ‘having a gander’. I burnt the kids tea and even ignored a phonecall (I knew who it was from) just so I could keep looking. Is it possible for anything to be more addictive than facebook???

    I have applied and had the ‘you have been added to the waiting list’ e-mail so fingers crossed I should be able to get in and start pining soon! Thank you for showing me yet another way to waste hours of my life!:j

    hahaha ... me too!!!!
    its great though, very addictive!

    Although Facebook is mentioned you do not have to sign in via that or Twitter, and you can unlink your accounts. I am on Facebook but I don't want everything I do broadcast to all and sundry! :D and I'm sure others who know me arn't interested either!

    Just received my invitation but can't work out how to accept it without going through Facebook - any more information on that please?
