    I used to read this sub-forum as an area for information. Now all I read is slanging matches, discussions about slanging matches, ego-boosting posts and all this nonsense.
    Stop hanging around in the Moneysavers then.

    And of course being categorised in another thread as a "yummy mummy" is patronising and sexist, it's also pathetic and cowardly to say that in a thread I wasn't active in.

    Julie. I have swithered and dithered about answering this.
    I was just going to go for a straightforward pastiche of patronising and sexist excerpts from your posts. I decided against it. Conscienta mille testes.

    However, on with the apology and I am going to swallow my reservations and apologise.

    If you found my saying you were a "yummy mummy" patronising and sexist, then I wholeheartedly apologise.
    On here, it is all to easy to forget that some of us are more sensitive than others and can take offence where none was meant to be given. I have misread you and I will be more careful of your feelings in future.

    As for my being pathetic and cowardly, you are, as always, entitled to your opinion.

    p.s. I see that I am not the only person that thinks you have gone too far in your bullying, one of your posts has been censored by a member of the MSE forum team (post #305) "Last edited by MSE ForumTeam3; Today at 9:13 AM.. ". Though I dare say you'll re-edit this shortly to hide the fact....

    That is so cool!

    Sadly, I am not unique - obviously, Abuse decided that julie's references to 'rape', and my quoting of it, were not quite 'on'.

    Hence julie's post here, further up the thread:

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=24918101&postcount=298

    has also been edited.


    So presumably you're going to make the same really pointless accusations at julie now, Harry? :rolleyes:

    Or you could get a life. :eek:

    Actually, I quite like julie.

    She's quite entertaining.

    Talks garbage, but she's a heap of fun. :)

    Nice one Carol, Harry, you got owned, now go stand at the back of the class.:D
    It's a shame when a poster creates a new ID, spends days / weeks creating a sense of identity, covers their tracks carefully, builds a story, and then blows the whole lot because they cannot resist the need to attack carolt.

    Might as well create BonnyNonny, log in, say "carolt you smell" and get ppr'd straight away. Would save a lot of effort.

    edit: er, I didn't mean Aqualung btw.

    Oh, and I'm a lot funnier than Mewbie too.


    I'll take your word for that then julie.

    Because, of course, you're always right; even though self - praise is no praise.


    I look forward to YOUR definitive analysis of the state of the American economy.
