When I got started with this laptop, I used to be able to see when
SCS
'skypers' were online. Haven't seen anyone there in months. My
kids
gave me a camera to go on the computer for skype exchanges (for my
birthday the other day). I returned it and got a fabulous kitchen
knife, and saucepan instead. One kid didn't care, and the other
sounded 'miffed'. Oh, well............ :)

I gave up on Skype for SCS.
To be truthful, I found that for one reason or another
people just dropped off, some even before I had spoken
with them. I guess they had just discovered that they
maybe don't like me. Anyhow, it was very much a reciprocal
arrangement, and I'm happy to keep contact at SCS 'group'
level. I think most people feel 'safer' that way.
Nowadays I just come and go. I am back for a week tops
then I'm orf again.

It's definitely safer that way.
