Natalie started a thread looking for couples a few weeks back. Yes, there are lots.

I spotted a 'suggested friend' on my FB feed this morning, and it's the child of someone from UKC; I remember the mother being pregnant. Tempus fugit...
Taking the third example from the article, I have a lot of friends I've met through UKC; many of my FB friends are UKC or ex-UKC, and then there are the 'UKC friends' who I've never met, but, through years of exchanges on here, feel I know to some extent.
Then there are those on UKC who I don't really want to meet...
