    Blimey - this must be some Johnny Come Lately who doesn't realise how things work here, or perhaps a pure & simple Troll surely....not a 'regular'? (Not that being a regular gives you elevated status of course - that's not what I mean at all!)

    Please don't let them upset you Weller. Reducing you to tears and letting them get to you is playing into their hands.

    I haven't a clue what the circumstances are why someone would do this but you mustn't let them upset you. They clearly don't know the etiquette if they are new...and if they are just trolling then, that says it all. They're just a f***wit. Nuff said.

    I am sorry to hear about this nonsense

    It is unacceptable and must be reported, not only so you can get closure on this but also to prevent it happening to someone else. I cant imagine that they would have just singled one person out. They are likely to do it again and we can do without such people on a forum which is intended to help and support others.

    Please dont let it get you down and carry on doing what you are doing by being a support and inspiration

    Kick 'em in the (virtual) nadgers!

    I haven't been here long but I'm shocked how many people like to jump down other people's throats. I don't mind a bit of good-natured teasing or the (often justified) rebuke for bad spelling or general stupidity but I've noticed some people are really obtuse and aggressive. Often they've had a lot of posts so can't really be called a troll but seem to just criticise on every post! Even then, I'm shocked someone would PM you to abuse you!

    I don't do virtual hugs or "huns" but have some virtual cocktails! :beer:

    Weller, please report them.

    You are a very much loved and respected member of this community, whoever sent that pm does not reflect our opinion of you at all, we think you're fab!

    Please don't let them get to you lisa, they don't deserve a nano-second of thought or respect.

    Hi Weller, What a !!!!!! they must be!

    You should name and shame then. You always offer great advice and one idiot shouldnt get you down ;)

    There are some people who post on here a lot and have pretty open discussions on the site. This doesnt mean that its a gang or group. we are in the same position and offer mutual advice and support.

    I dont wish to be nosey but was this out of the blue or have you had recent dealings with this idiot? Report them anyhow even if theuy are a regularly member.

    I cant believe anyone but a newbie would even stoop so low...
