(gawd knows im not normally)....BUT......if we have a gripe, i mean a real gripe.....why not pm the person in question and keep it off the boards?? It might just stop any rows etc on the boards? Just a suggestion, Donna

Hi Donna Good to say hello to you again. Been a while. You must be bonkers woman!! They just love having rows in public. That way it drags lots of other people in, it gets blown up out of all proportion, and people take sides which then creates lots of other rows............. hey i thenk i have just discovered perpetual motion!! LOL Me? I dont understand it myself but i expect everyone involved would be able to give me chapter and verse why they are right and someone else is wrong. Hi Ho Gerry :-))

I do agree, i've said it myself before...BUT.... I was accused the other day (VIA PM) of sending 'nasty Pms' and of being 'racist'.....I know a lot of Pms get sent by the person and i didnt want them sending Pms to other members saying it was true ( If that makes sense)..Since i had no idea who they had 'said' it to i felt the need to pubicly defend myself.....! Once i had said my piece i did remove the thread before it 'erupted'...But still think things are best said off the boards.... LOU XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
