If you are a member of the network and you have created a reader account on this website, you can now post messages direct to the site. All you have to do is let me know when you have created an account (via network@wellies.me.uk), and then I will set your access permissions so that you can post.

Sorry this hasn't been available sooner... the admin panel is a bit complicated, and it's taken me a little while to work out how to configure the access settings properly. Also I was a bit worried about moderating the site (to make sure the content remains "appropriate") ... but now I've had more experience of running discussion groups at work, I don't think this is likely to be a big issue with a group of this size.

For people who had already registered on the site:  I have already upgraded your access permissions, so you can start posting straightaway.   All you have to do is log in, and then there is a "post new entry" link at the top right of the page.   But if you find it too complicated, let me know and I'll put some instructions together.

Would anyone like me to add a chat page, so that people can post more frivolous stuff and have on-line conversations?

In the unlikely event that you see any posts you think may cause concern or offence, please contact me as soon as possible (network@wellies.me.uk).   And if the technology defeats you, don't worry - just e-mail me as usual and I'll post it for you.   And it's worth bearing in mind that posts which are sent round by e-mail will generally get more responses.

All the best
Anne-Marie
