Actually, if you ever decide that you want to use MSN, you don't ever have to install it. Windows have messenger built in to the software - it's called Windows Messenger - and it works with MSN...that's what I use if I ever need MSN.

Has Micheal filled in his application form to be the next Doctor?

Although he'd be a better Doctor Way Aye than a Doctor Who

No i dont do rollercoasters but i was persuaded to go on this water ride last year which even Betty said afterwards was very scary!! I wanted to go on another scary ride afterwards but she chickened out lol!!

mszee · 30 Oct 2008, 00:07

I don't do rollercoasters...mainly because I try to get off at the highest point just before it's about to go down...LOL...

SamCat · 30 Oct 2008, 00:16

The London Eye is awesome! I'm terrified of heights and most fairground rides but went on the Eye around sunset last month and loved it so much I almost went on again

I have to disagree ... sorry! I hate heights too but because all my family went on a couple of years ago I agreed I'd try it and boy i wish I HAD'NT! It was scary .. hated it and never will go on again! Ever

But my family disagree they love it lol!

Yup. To give an idea of what it's like up there, I took a photo of the pod in front of us when I was at the top -

AndrewG · 30 Oct 2008, 03:45

Ash that's a great photo.

Never been up there myself though have done one of those 3 hour bus tours which is pretty good value for money if you want to see many sights in a short space of time.

It's so clear that photo, it almost looks as if you were standing on top of the pod.

mszee · 30 Oct 2008, 03:47

Thank you very much for the picture! That's the kind of picture I've seen online...

Angie, the thing appears to be enclosed...what scared you? I am really really afraid of heights and of that type motion...so...with me it's a real concern...but this doesn't look like a rollercoaster at all?

MissAsh · 30 Oct 2008, 03:52

Thanks Andrew, think it's the only photo I took where you can't see any fingerprints or smudges on the glass!

It's a 30 minute ride, goes really slowly and because you're so distracted by the scenery (especially on a really clear day) you barely notice the movement. I was sure I was going to be hugging the floor and begging to be put down on the ground again but it was totally the opposite. Think I'm going to go on it quite late next time as I'd love to see London all lit up.

That would be lovely to see I reckon. But it's pretty much pitch black here south at 6pm these days so it doesn't need to be too late.

Would you ordinarily be afraid of rollercoasters and such?

Unfortunately it'll probably be late spring/early summer before I'm back in London so it'll be getting dark a fair bit later then... not that I'm complaining, more daylight hours to explore the city = more fun for me!

Very much so. I went to a theme park for a friend's birthday a few years ago and spent pretty much all day standing around playing slot/grab machines or reading my book as I was too scared to go on the rides myself, nothing's changed since then!

mszee · 30 Oct 2008, 04:32

Thank you for your support...I probably will do it...just because...while in Rome...
