If you can then I have obviously managed to negotiate the door to the Outhouse.

This is WEIRD I can't tell who's actually talking to me.
Is there a way to reply to all I wonder.

Well you can click on the "This is a reply to this posting" and that will tell you, won't it? I've not done it much so far because I'm used to following multiple threads in TA and DtA in time order!

Hi Polly! If you click on Conversation List next to the thread, you get a kind of mayo....
I'm footling around with my Space, can't decide whether to stay Alabaster or the Goo one.

Bit tricky to open that door, but once you've used it a bit the hinges get looser and it gets easier.
Or something.

Pol, if you mean what I think you mean, you'll find our names at the top of our postings. Most folk have kept their Mustardland names; I'm "Peet McKimmie" over there, but over here my name has picked up six years worth of detritus... 
Anybody and everybody can read these threads; the people who post to them automatically become "subscribed" and receive notification of replies on their "Personal Space". I know it seems a bit weird, but you quickly get used to it.

Thanks Peet - Hope you don't mind me shortening your name but I haven't got all night. I'm sure I'll get the hang of this eventually.
: just testing the emoticons and my eyesight isn't good enough to make this one out.
hope I don't need this one too often
