A word (well, several) in thy green and gold ears ..

Cottons Girls is growing by leaps and bounds. Now, in addition to this blog, we've also set up an online group at Yahoo. It's easy enough to join, and you can use your existing email address to post messages. In addition to writing messages, there's also a database section on the group - one contains a list of all the Old Girls (with batch, house, and current location - for privacy reasons only the country is listed) and a second list contains all the staff. Of course it's still under construction, but we hope to build up a complete listing of every Old Girl one day!

Here on the blog, if you'd like to be a contributor do let us know. As a contributor, you can write articles and post pictures. About posting comments - many girls said they had difficulty with this, I have corrected our settings and you should be able to post now, regardless of whether you're a gmail user or not. However, comments will be "moderated" which means that one of us contributors will have to approve the message before allowing it to appear on the blog. This is just to reduce spam and make sure no one posts sensitive information.

Please remember this blog is in the public domain - so do use your judgment when posting a story, a picture or a comment, and NEVER write your email address, contact information or sensitive personal details. Over on the Yahoo group, you can write messages with more abandon as only invited members can view the messages, databases, etc (members will only be accepted if they are Old Girls or staff).

There are also quite a lot of us OCs on Facebook, so if you are on there too, search for one of us to join in the fun.

Finally, if you have a personal website or blog that you'd like fellow OCs to visit, please mail me the link and I'll add it to the Links section here (bottom of the page).
