Oops, looks like you have two of them now. 
Just forward the extra to someone else.

Geggs- the invite's failed to deliver. It claims that geggs0121 doesn't *have* a yahoo.com account.

Okay, I'll check on that when I get home. I can't access Yahoo from work.
Thanks for trying anyway, both of you.

I also have 6 invites to dole out, so if you need one, my addie is in my personal space.

I've now re-actived my yahoo account. And it's geggs0121 at yahoo dot co dot uk, rather than dot com.

Still no new invites but then I'm not sending much email at present.My stupid family and friends WON'T remember to use my new addy either.Lazy so and so's.

Thanks Egon, I'm in now!

Geggs, GMail doesn't work with Opera at the moment - it's something to do with ActiveX controls or some techie thing like that.
However the good folk at Opera are working on the problem and by all accounts v7.60, which is in Beta mode at the moment, solves the problem

Thanks for that GreyDesk!
I've still keep IE around for a few things, so it's use it through that.

This is so difficult without a private message system.
My friend from Cable Forum has offered his 6 invites to you guys.If you want an invite then go to my researchers page and look in my journal for his Gmail addy.Write him a begging email and he will send you an invite.When all 6 are gone so will the journal entry.
Mind if you actually signed up to cableforumsdotcodotuk(formerly Nthellworld.co.uk)you would find it much easier to get invites from the members.

* staggers in weighed down by 17 invites *
I don't know, talk about inflation. There was a time only a couple of months ago that these invites were worth around $70 each on eBay. Yet nowadays you can't give them away
