how sad

It seems I am using the forum to advertise my services by some people so have decided to remove 'offending' posts. However, I cannot be held responsible for ladies posting reccomendations of which I am very greatful.
Any more p messages and I will feel it necessary to leave the forum. Sad, but there you have it. All I have ever wanted to do is help to reduce wedding costs and I do feel I have done this by most certainly not advertising my services. I point many ladies in all directions and do feel I have helped out. Maybe it's the 'new' brides who haven't been here over the past 2 years as I have, but there you have it.

    that's awful linda, you've been more than helpful for me and your experience is definitely worth it's weight in gold and i've only been a member here for a few months.
  • For all those out there who have pm'd Linda and complained, Linda is one of the most helpful people on the MSE boards, she wil do her upmost to help anyone and has saved many a bride from a fashion disaster.

    I just hope for your sakes that 3 mths before your wedding your Landy dress doesnt arrive in an unwearable state and Linda is no longer here because of you!

    Indeed Linda - there is a difference between helping people out and promoting your own business.
    If other people promote you, that's not your fault - it should show that people are happy with your business.

    Really sad when we can't all play nicely, isn't it??
    Why does nobody say Thank You anymore??:mad:

    Yes as a newbie to this section of the board, I was extremely grateful for Linda's support and advice yesterday (my post about wedding dress sizing)......the fact she takes time to post and give advice/help when needed is much appreciated in my book.

    ahhh linda i have been gone for months and i know full well that your knowledge has helped me a great deal, i hope this board hasn't turned nasty whilst i have been gone.
    It'd be a shame for you to leave as you have helped so many, don't let them get you down hun x

    As a newbie bride too, I'm looking forward to some help from Linda - just a pity I'm in Scotland though, too far to Yorkshire, boo! Stay around Linda x

    I found Linda through this board, and Im glad she is here! Only today I have e-mailed her to ask for her to send some information to me. I am seriously considering having my wedding dress made now!
    Dont go Linda, there are lots of us on here that need you!!!
