    Ok for what its worth

    I will say again the written word can be taken the wrong way so easily no body language etc and only building a picture up of the person from their posts so could be totally wrong :eek:

    I did say sometime in the last week or so when Squills first started posting that I noticed, I thought here we go again someone else going to kick it off:(
    Then I realised that is how he posts he is blunt and I am in real life more often than not, but I understand people could take my posts the wrong way, not as a joke how they are meant but literally how they are typed:eek: so I wind it in :D to try and offend as few as possible.

    Maybe squills does not see it, have that ability who knows ;)

    I have not seen whichever posts it was as still not caught up the nightshift part and wont bother now anyway. So I have no idea how bad it was.

    I am not an emotional type of person as in get it all out there, I would rather deal with it quietly or make a joke :D. That works for me and for others that would be upsetting/disgusting etc.

    Squills you have apologised for your thoughts and deleted said posts from what I can gather, the apologies have been accepted.
    As people have said lets all move on :D

    I know this is dredging it up again :o

    I have lurked for quite awhile reading this thread and am sad to see that people have ganged against someone and made them feel so bad that they have gone into exile - death is a part of life, alas it is the one sure thing that happens to all of us. I have said goodbye to both of my parents and am all too aware of this grief and I have not been offended by any posts.

    I feel quite ashamed and saddened reading this thread today.

    Welcome Chimerical,
    I think if you have read the thread for a while there are always tiffs...and nothing more. Some seem to take it more seriously than others and even come back as AEs to make the point. Would you believe it? I don't have time to keep up with all of the posts at the moment so may have missed something;)

    Hi everyone:). had a nice day out with my boys, niece and sister.

    Hello

    Did anyone buy the comic relief moshi monster that was posted on here ages ago? The £1 came out of paypal but I have not recieved anything yet. I vaguely remember delivery was something like 28 days but it must be longer than that by now.

    I know it's only a pound but still!

    Many thanks for reading. :)

    i ordered one of these for my niece and it arrived quite quickly, she loved it. think you may need to send them an email to chase it up

    Why not just take it on the chin and accept that a few people have been upset and you were perhaps out of touch/insensitive with your posts? Your other posts have been a valuable addition to the thread but please don't try to be a Prima Donna as so many have before...the thread is more important than any of us as individuals:)

    I remember when I was getting a rough time of it for daring to voice an opinion of my own about something and I stormed off with "This is the last you'll ever see of me"

    Then I decided the best punishment for everyone was to keep posting my drivel and so I was back within 24 hours :rotfl:
