    Evening all

    I have retreated back to lurkdom but have been saddened by the posts of today.

    Flo - you are genuinely missed by us lurkers as well as everyone else, but you need to do whats best for you

    Mad - get well soon x

    Savvy - shocking, how very dare they ;) thank you for all your hard work. I have heard that chicken is half price in m's at the moment so might be worth looking for on wombles

    Time to have a snake I think, not that I could get many, my A's didn't like to restock them :eek:

    It was quite an undertaking for one guy.

    I don't have a morrisons locally but when I am in you have me looking thinking must tell Savvy if its not on his list

    You are valued for more reasons than just your lists, I have enjoyed your sense of humour coming through :T

    And did you ever find an occasion to tell me that something wasn't on my list?;);):rotfl::rotfl:(There I was - trying to ensure I wasn't caught out by one of you lot on the thread each time. You had me checking things in case someone tried to pull them out when they glitched in A - and yet you still managed to find the Dove Men & Cares, left me on the back foot over them, and the Dettol Handwashes, the slightly better value (vs M) Impulses and the Heinz Beanz before I did!:p:rotfl::rotfl: All I got was that silly mousse.):rotfl::rotfl::)

    The humour will certainly continue...!!:):D

    My post was fair and accurate and I stand by it. Perhaps you should re-read it if you are in any doubt about that. To my mind anyone who lets another person drive them away from an online thread is indeed of weak character. If a thousand people were looking to me for help and inspiration in any particular way and I walked away from them because someone wrote something online about me then I too could rightfully be called weak, even selfish. So be under no illusion about that very plain and simple fact. I don't agree with people offending others - be it online or anywhere else - but these are people we are never going to see or meet in life. They are no real threat to anything but our self-esteem. Perhaps some people, after chatting online for a period of time, get so wrapped up in their self-importance that when someone comes along with an alternate or critical viewpoint they find it impossible to come to terms with. We are adults and if at times some don't behave like it that is no cause to become extreme in our own behaviour.

    The following comments/opinions are those of SFSB only and mse does not claim any responsibility whatsoever..;)

    FloFlo - Mse legend. Glitches will never be the same without you!!

    Savvy - Mse sooper dooper legend. All round nice guy with lists to die for!!

    frequent - One time nice guy who seems to have totally lost the plot recently. Avoid at all costs until he can prove that he can be trusted again.

    Shortfatscotsbloke - Lovely Scottish chap with a big tummy. Tries not to be serious about anything and loves having a wee bargain every now and again..:D:D


    Narcism has taken me over.... you have missed me off your list!!
    :p:p:p:p:p:p

    Edit.. my spelling is terrible!

    My post was also - to my mind- fair and accurate and I stand by it as well. You say you don't agree with people offending others - but then you go on to suggest someone is a 'weak character' and 'full of their own self importance' . You are entitled to your opinion - but don't be surprised if your comment has offended. I wouldn't presume to answer for anyone else, but its certainly offended me.

    Its unfortunate that unpleasantness and illfeeling continues to rumble around like a bad case of flatulence. I'm fed up to the back teeth with the bickering and snide remarks - I've got enough personal family problems at the moment without coming on here to more upset and I can certainly understand why so many of the old timers have b******* off.
