Glad to join in, I'm 59 and female.
A possible name for the forum could be
Sixties. It's an average age and most
of us have recollections of that decade.0 -
Laterlife Cafè?0
-
or how about something simple like Renaissance?
Dictionary defines this as a rebirth or revival - well, our generation is certainly experiencing a revival, being over 50 is the new black, innit
...and we've all felt a new lease of life, felt 'reborn', since finding the internet, I'm sure0 -
Do you mean you all hook up with Skype??
Ooooh like the sound of New Horizon and also Renaissance~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Don't want anything called silver. I still have reddish blond hair with surprising few gray bits.
I like New Horizons, did think of suggesting Swinging Sixties but we might get some unwanted requests!!0 -
Skype...??!!

S'all very well but I dunno anyone else with Skype so would I be talking to meself???♥♥♥ Genius - 1% inspiration and 99% doing what your mother told you. ♥♥♥0 -
Can I just explain that Skype just came into the particular conversation as there was a programme on BBC2 last night about it which featured some "older" people trying the new technology.
The idea behind having an internet cafe in SS was sparked by a thread here also started last night
The intention is to vamp up the SS board in keeping with what users would like to see posted here.0 -
Cheers for clarifying that for me E-lass ...
.... I'm a wannabe technophobe, that Skype thing made me quiver ...
... I actually thought it referred to an exercise programme on Sky TV and I abhor exercise of *any* kind!! At school, P.E. to me merely translated into Pure Evil!!!! :eek:
Sorry for intruding, as a wee 21yo, I shouldn't even *be* in here :whistle:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just been looking at the Skype site - you can use it for conference calls, sadly max 5 people at the moment but who knows...

Goodness gracious! I am just about managing to learn how to use the internet. You all put me to shame.0
