Yeah right! How long have you known me, Mr Worth? Long enough to know that I’m a very stubborn mule, particularly when to comes to anything that threatens my cosy, luddite world and – in particular – exposes to an internet full of strangers: a) who I do or do not know, b) who I am or am not friends with, c) to which parties/bars I may or may not be going to that night, etc……. I know I have this website (thank you again, dearest) but at least I only write about the aspects of my life I WANT people to know about – and normally after the event. I’m very uncomfortable with the idea of a load of strangers knowing who all my friends are. I therefore can’t see in what circumstance I will ever join FaceBook but you’re welcome (among the many others who keep pestering me) to keep trying to convert me

Agh, you will eventually succumb to it, just the same way as everyone adopted TV, radio, e-mail, the internet. Resistance is futile!
You could join Twitter instead.
