    I'm sure we'll struggle on, somehow. its a shame you don't want to join in though.

    I think we ought to cut off the oxygen supply eh lir? Sometimes it is the only way to deal with desperate attention seekers...

    I often think these sort of people are really in very great need...as with all the argumentative and troll types.It can be very sobering. But yes, I don't think this helps either.

    How was the tea LJ?

    Can't drink tea. Gives me headaches. But am currently drinking coffee. Wish I had a cake too.

    Yes lets just cut off the oxygen supply and get rid of the chaff!!

    So please start another thread and stop the pretence of being nice and partaking in this thread - then you can start a seperate discussion in order to rid yourself of the the chaff (I understand you call them trolls now)from the attention seekers, right:)

    Back then they would be blacks, jews and the incapaciteed.

    Would that pave the way for you, suffice, to get your word in???

    I'm having a tea party tonight with Orange and lemon Cake, various teas!!

    I did an almond cake but it hasn't turned out so good so I;m thinking I'll just cover it up with whipped cream to hide the mess,

    What do you think, will I get away with it???

    Actually, I can eat stuff that has been near nuts, I just react to stuff which physically has nuts in. I did mistakenly eat a slice of cake with marzipan hidden in it (only a teeny tiny piece) & I felt rough for a while, but wasn't seriously ill or anything.
