Let with . If G is a nondiscrete locally compact group which is amenable as a discrete group and m ∈ LIM(CB(G)), then we can embed into the set of all extensions of m to left invariant means on L(G) which are mutually singular to every element of TLIM(L(G)), where LIM(S) and TLIM(S) are the sets of left invariant means and topologically left invariant means on S with S = CB(G) or L(G). It follows that the cardinalities of LIM(L(G)) ̴ TLIM(L(G)) and LIM(L(G)) are equal. Note that which contains is a very big set. We also embed into the set of all left invariant means on CB(G) which are mutually singular to every element of TLIM(CB(G)) for G = G1G2, where G1 is nondiscrete, non–compact, σ–compact and amenable as a discrete group and G2 is any amenable locally compact group. The extension of any left invariant mean on UCB(G) to CB(G) is discussed. We also provide an answer to a problem raised by Rosenblatt.
