I probably put OP in wrong section, why are some people so sarcastic?

SH is always like that- aspirations of becoming a board guide or moderator! Don't worry about it. I wish there was a button that said the opposite of thanks, that would get pressed quite a lot I think. The post was helpful because it gives something to look out for.

Be cynical if you want - I wasn't being sarcy, I quite simply want to know what the implications of the closure are - is that so bad to ask??? We still don't know!

(Would be great to be a BG - could get rid of the truly useless posts that add no value by doing that)

when I was in rolls of £1.99p wrapping paper was 49p, probably won`t be a lot of bargains as Card Factory has bought the stock and sacked the staff!

Went in today and all Christmas stuff was 75% off - stocked up on all my cards for next year! Also got some Christmassy mugs for 25p each!

Trouble with Sid Harper is that he is always being grumpy and "sarcy" and "cynical" in his posts and rarely contributes apart from nag other posters so when it seems there may be a glimmer of hope that in one of his posts he has a kind word to say then we all still think he is being his moody self....a leopard never changes his spots.....victor meldrew always Victor Meldrew;)
....to the poster you will get used to the grumps on the boards and just ignore them like most do,most people dont mind the posts that they complain about and find them informative.:T Its interesting to know as I didnt know they had been bought out and if they have then hopefully some bargains (maybe) to be had so yes a grabbit so for that Thank you:beer:

I have a reason behind most of my posts. Yours often seem directed at criticising me which, quite frankly, you have no right to do - you know nothing about me. Frequently I point out something that shouldn't be on Grabbit. What I say benefits all users of Grabbit - regular users get what they come here to see, those posting in the wrong place understand that they shouldn't in future.

So, why don't you spend your energy instead of writing war and peace about my posts to find and post the odd bargain, instead of clogging up Grabbit further?

Now I am sure people would be far more interested in examples about what kinds of things can be picked up in this place than hearing your personal attacks on me (which, quite frankly, I couldn't care less about).

Happy New Year to you also Sid !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
