Why the long face?

This week it's been an extravaganza of all things equine for MSFers!

Abi, Gaynor, Kirsty, Lucy, Orla, and Stacey all look like they enjoy a little equestrian activity, you'd be a foal not to really?

Whilst you MSFer's are having a blast browsing for potential dates, what you don't know is that the team here at MSF Towers are having a little bit of our own fun too!

It seems to be almost a daily occurance now to hear 'lookey likey' bellowed across the office. We often stumble across MSFer's who have just a hint of that glamorous celeb look about them.

So just for fun, we've hand picked a few for you to see what you think... can you tell the MSFer from the real celeb?

Brian McFadden or David?

Lee Ryan or Rob?

 Russell Crowe or Nick?

Have you seen any lookey likies of your own? We'd love to see them!

You may well remember Tom and Rachel from Check out the bling, a post from back in January. Long after their first date (involving sausages, mash and bean-bags!), all went to plan with their small, beach wedding in South Africa. We feel fortunate, not only having a photo of the ring, but a photo of their happy day too.

Thanks so much for staying in touch guys. What a pair of stunners!

Need attention? Try the 10 day test

I'm sometimes approached by MSFers who are concerned they're not getting enough attention. 

However, when I look at their accounts I can see that they aren't sending any messages! This is so frustrating!

There's just one simple rule when it comes to your inbox folks - one needs to send mail to receive mail. How else will someone find you?

So, if you find yourself wanting more attention I'd like you to set yourself a tried and tested task....

10 messages to 10 members for 10 days, simple!

I guarantee that sending 10 messages, to 10 members for 10 days will improve your experience. This exercise will get you used to 'throwing' yourself out there, flex your writing muscles and liven up your inbox activity.

If you've been reading my Advice posts, I hope you've now grasped what makes a great photo and you've considered what to write in your opening message. Have a read of my general advice too, as those tips are pretty useful. The only other thing to do is to actually send those messages!

When you perform a search, looking for appropriate matches for you, how many members appear? If you can see no-one (or very few people) you want to send mail to, you need to read these two posts:

This 10 day task can greatly improve anyone's time on MSF, I've witnessed it work for many MSFers.

Any feedback? Let me know.

Struth! It would appear MSFers have gone marsupial mad lately, with the amount of furry friends we've noticed on your profiles.

Clearly Armelle, Emily, Fiona, Gemma, Rachel and Richard have no qualms about getting close-up to these cute critters. How about you?
