I have heard it on good authority from an undisclosed source via an anonymous email that CS is going to double our membership fees. This increase will be backdated to January 2014 and all arrears will be recovered in due course.
The increase was necessitated by the loss of income due to suspended members refusing to pay their membership fees.
However, it is not all bad news as they promised a 20% discount based on the new membership fees until such time they can organize a new chat room provider; so until then we will only pay 60% more than what we currently have to pay.
As a guide to calculate your new membership fees, divide it by 5 and multiply with 8.
Actually, we should not see this as bad because it is a small price to pay considering all the activities we enjoy here on CS. We should rather see it as an investment in our own futures. CS will be worth it, even if they triple the membership fees.
It was also said that any person not happy with the increase will be refunded a pro rata portion of their membership fees if they decide to leave during the month. No notice will be required and the refund will be done automatically.
The CS management were not available for comment and did not confirm or deny the rumors.
Of course, it is possible that this is a hoax but it is unlikely as it is the first time I get information from this source and therefore I have not received false information from them yet. I have to believe it until proved otherwise.
Have a great day and pay your membership fees with a smile even when they insist on cash.

Let's face it, life is full of mysteries. Full of questions that are so beyond human mind to satisfactorily find an answer. Full of dark elements it is sometimes so impossible to accept and understand. Humanity is beset with imperfections. Our comprehension is so limited and sometimes I call these inhuman acts, the works of the devil. We do things that sometimes challenge our moral and ethical values. Some are mild and some are just horrendous. In example, the Holocaust, Mai Lai Massacres, Slaughters of people from Africa, Genocide from Serbia. Not to mention the many atrocities and brutalities committed against humanity through wars.
This is not the main point of this blog. Rather the examination of conscience and understanding why man can possibly inflict harm and injury to others. So mutilating and so inhuman. The worst part is that these acts are done by unsuspecting, normal people, whom we trust around us and in the end, it is such a difficult process to bring them to justice of their being so sly and so believable in their lies. And, they do everything to claim their innocence making our justice system waste and spend a lot of money, energy and resources just to prove them guilty.
I just watched a movie based on actual events, FROZEN GROUND. It is about the commission of a very heinous crimes involving rape, torture and murder of 24 women. The perpetrator lied for as long as he could to the authorities and it took a great deal of time and money for the authority to prove his case. The worse part is that he led a very religious, very stable job, with family and children, and one would never ever suspect his capacity to commit such an evil act. Eventually he confessed and recovered 11 out of 17 bodies and marks as one of the worst crimes ever recorded in the State of Alaska.
In my state of mind, I can't help but wondering how can man be ever capable in conceiving this act let alone commit them? It was so difficult to witness such a mind boggling and heart wrenching story without truly asking so many questions that is so hard to answer. While I cried so much on the movie, 12 Years a Slave, this movie just made me feel so mad and so hurt for the victims.
Any opinions?
Thank you so much for your participation, contribution and opinion.

Oh, must have been 11 or 12 years ago when I decided I'd seen enough grey skies, the time was right to sell my bungalow on England's south coast, life was getting dull playing scabble & checkers or watching cartoons like the Simmosons & Bambina or films like Back to the Future on TV, I was getting lazly, question was where to go, the place I was looking for had to be goodenuph to last the rest of my life, I had a particolor place in mind, somewhere I'd heard life is best, a mountain location with loads of fruit trees, oranges, lemons & cherrie, a place of serenity .
It was June, plainly I had act quickly as I'm not getting any younger & neither was my old tom cat who would make the move with me, it order for me not to be lonely it was also nessasary to take my puppy, so packing my teddybear the move was on, saying goodbye to my neighbours Bob an Jac it was into the car & away, the property I'd selected was on a mountain, well away from everything, it was even sola powered, with a dirt road, gullies at the side to carry away rain water, history for area tells of invasions from Africa which was why the area became inhabited in the first place, being high up you can see for miles & even invading force of Africans on camels can easily be warded off.
Just the first part of the story, I feel it would have been a cyn for real if I hadn't made the move, in fact I would probably have been tormented for the rest of my life. What's left to now? Well I still have to quit & become a non smoker amongst other things.

The www.
Otherwise known as WORLD WIDE WEB
Just like a spider’s web only stronger,
As the innocent (and yes we were all innocent b4 the www arrived) land in this web the more innocence we lose.
There r countless ppl being caught up in this huge web, a strong web made from the strongest known commodity known to mankind, (our curiosity), a web that encompasses the world, from
New Zealand to Indonesia, to Sth Africa to the Americas on to the UK over to Greenland, Norway, and Russia moving to France to Greece to China onwards to Australia and everywhere in between.
We r like flies that get stuck in a spiders web, cause that’s exactly what this is, A spiders web.
No matter how hard we wriggle and squirm, not matter how hard we try to undo ourselves, we end up getting stuck more. Now all we can do is to wait for the spider to appear and devour us.
Some spiders wait, luring us into the thought that they will not come, others may have just eaten their last captive, while some hurry from their hiding place and quickly and mercifully poison us then devour our remains.
Some of the innocent have be able to make a pack with the devil whilst waiting for the spider to come, so they can break free, but they become the faceless and nameless ones who help the spider lure us further into the web.
Others just can’t seem to move, frozen like a zombie, staring blankly at the screen that has attracted them to the web, Afraid to move, holding their breath. Waiting and waiting for something to happen.
Even the most intelligent of us r caught here in this web of deceit, how could we be stuck here we wonder? Questioning the reality of it all, is it a dream/nightmare surely this cannot be real? But alas, we cannot free ourselves. Stuck, no way of leaving, left to ponder our lives, r we really left here to ponder what might have been?
But rejoice I have found a way out, a way to beat the spider and those faceless and nameless ppl who lure us here, I offer u all salvation, I have seen the escape route, for those that wish to follow.
Pls look at the top left cnr of your keyboard,there u will see a button marked esc…….I have worked out that this means ESCAPE…… and that’s what I am going to do, escape from the web. I ask u all to follow me, not to the Promised Land, but to escape this monstrosity called the WORLD WIDE WEB.
I know that a lot of u will make excuses to stay, excuses like, I need it for my children’s homework (heard of a library)? Others will say I need for my work, (Have we not got books)? my emails some will scream, what? (r there r no pens or paper left on earth)? Facebook, Twitter even CS, (surely there r places to meet and socialize away from here)? Music and movies and porn, (yes there r even shops for all of that), what about the games I hear, (well go outside and play games from sun up till sun down).
I urge u all to hit the escape key and be rescued from this evil web. For if u don’t, then life as u knew it will surely be devoured by the hungry spider.
My bet is none of u/us will.

Damn key is stuck...AAAARRRGGGHHHHH

There are three major regions of the World when it comes to the quantitative as well as qualitative analyses as to the progress in treating women as equal to men.
The First, Second, and the Third world. The Western part of the planet is of course where the first and second qualify which is about 20 percent of the total humanity while the third is comprised of the 80 percent and living under poverty.
When we look at the progress, I am more inclined towards the first and second as of course, the very source of this perception and application is championed by freedom and independence specially in the field of socio economic and political arena.
Today, while I agree that there are so many obstacles and challenges that continuously impair and obstruct such a growth, we have without a doubt,. have progressed to a considerable height that is even beyond my expectations.
I believe, I would credit this achievement towards the very conduct and liberal minded mentality of so many men and continue to support this legacy which is a mirror of the world's commitment to a genuine struggle and effort towards humanity and equality.
This blog is not about who is BETTER BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN. It is about acknowledging our commendable effort to continue our road to the champions of equality and as such embrace it for better understanding of the world and our road to progress.
How do you feel about it?

I frowned when I received the letter in my mailbox on Friday. It has been years since I last received a letter via snail mail. Accounts and invitations yes, plenty but this was no invitation to a wedding or a party.
The handwriting looked vaguely familiar but I did not recognize it immediately. I had to open the envelope before remembering it.
We were born 1200 miles apart but by the time of my sixth birthday we were living not too far apart. I am a few months older than him but we were a year apart in school. We had not spoken a single word to each other for the first 11 years of our lives. Then – a story on its own – we became friends.
A few minutes with a person can change your life while a lifetime with another can have no effect on you.
We became inseparable. Not even the year that I was in high school while he was still in primary school degraded our friendship. We were partners in crime. I kept his father busy in the garage while he nicked the beer out the fridge and he kept his mother busy while I ‘
organized’ some of her cigarettes.
When I fell with his father’s scooter and he took the blame but then I took the rap when he scratched my father’s new car with his bicycle. We stalked the girls on the main road and we climbed through the window one night to watch the battle of the bands. Together we scaled the fence of the municipal swimming pool for a midnight skinny dip. We were friends.
Not even falling in love with the same girl shook our friendship. Both of us simply withdrew from her.
When lovers split up it hurts and when marriages disintegrate it stinks but when friends part in anger, it is painful; especially for the guilty party. He said that he hated me and never wanted to see me again. I saw him a few times since then but pretended not to see him. If he saw me, he probably did the same.
And now, after 44 years, he wants to see me again…
Have a great Sunday.
Why do so many men say if you don't have a photo they won't respond to messages ?
Does it not occur to them that I simply don't want a man who is so shallow as to care about a woman's looks more than her quality or honesty or morals etc ?
I'm waiting for a man who is special , who isn't blinded by looks and a cute figure , they assume I am not attractive or that I don't have a good body .... We know what they say about the word A.S.S.U.M.E don't we.....
I can't wait to meet a man who is worthy enough and to see the look on his face when he DOES see me ....
Does anyone else feel the way I do ?
Cheers
Daisy
