BC - you are coming along very well I must say.

Rach - splendid job - we do like a good sneak - excellent bit of WUMming. Bit public, but hey, we're learning.

BC - you need to be at teacher's training college with that attitude! I'm soooo impressed.

Angie!!! You're being a bit quiet! What are you up to?

Strictly speaking Rach, yes, you should. But it's all good practice - and all of the others are learning by your attempts, so you will all improve together.

Gold star.

So what is the first WUM thing we must learn, oh teacher? Are we to lie in waiting or only come out after dark or what? *eyes Maus shoes and giggles.....

Mau - You could work on your "Woe is me WUMming" that can be very effective. Especially if you use it on a very regular basis!

Latoyah - that was excellent, needs a little work as it is still readable but you are coming along nicely.

Rach - whooshing is good, but you must learn to announce it first - loudly. Make a bit of a scene. Add the odd swear word (BC will help you as she obviously has a mouth like a navvy - which is good)

You are all doing so well ...

Phrases such as "well good" "whatever" and "isn't it" rendered in incomprehensible text speak will do wonders for your skills.

Allan - I will have to move you beyond A levels at this rate! Behave - and please practice a little bit of text speak. Think "I will display my ignorance, I will display my ignorance ..." it will improve your WUMming attitude.

"Old" grumpy woman?

You are definitely improving Latoyah. "Well gd" if I may say!

Rach - yessss, that's it. When you feel a bit more confident you can start a thread saying "I'm going to delete all my threads" and stomp around a bit and swear ... and have hysterics (although do try and spell hysterics incorrectly so we can all have a giggle!)

You see, BC, you CAN be a WUM.

Hi Elizabeth

You can certainly have a degree in that ... we can call it perpetual moaning if you like - but you do need to learn to make a real song and dance about it. Perhaps when you have tried pointing someone in the right direction and they come back asking yet another pointless question learn to say "whatever" - in fact, learn to say "woteva!" in capital letters maybe. That would show them.

Notice that Allan is doing a bit of a song at the moment - probably hoping to ingratiate himself ... LOL
