    Morning Everyone :)

    My DD and her boyfriend are so dippy.

    They offered to take BF's family dog for a walk. Got the lead, remembered the poop bags (which they usually forget). Walked to the park then realised were holding a lead with no dog on it! Poor doggy had been forgotten and was still at home :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    A lot of people use this thread as a support system, a way of letting off steam outside of the home environment. I know I really needed it a while ago, it really helped me to let of steam here. If we can't offer that to people then it might as well be a normal thread.

    Personally I like that people feel they can share things on here, and I love hearing stories about FC's DS2 especially.

  • will the 2 gangs please take their differences elsewhere.we all know who is in whose gang and where they stand but those of us caught in the crossfire would really like the thread back to neutral territory.the personnal attacks are out of order if you dont like someone dont read their posts or put them on ignore!this thread has helped alot of people in different ways its not all about glitches as the 1st post says.so next time people want votes or sponsership it would be nice if there was still plenty of people here to help them.the thread has been threatened with closure many times the way things are at the moment this will happen again,i fail to see how that would benefit anyone.for those who dont agree,please feel free to move to the next post.:)

    Last minute decision to have a little afternoon tea/baby shower on Saturday so dashing down town this morning for a few things. Of course it is a budget do... So with that in mind does anyone have suggestions that compare well or are very low cost? Need to spend as little as possible overall!

    Im going to a baby shower on Saturday as well! Hope yours goes well.
  • :T Well said - the thread has turned antagonistic and bitter - the tree, from which we all take something will wither and die if people don't face up to this reality and get over these things. Where there is provocation from trolls, people seem to be able to move on from it; the same provocation from established members needs the same treatment - move on from it and see it only as a member who you might want to block, whether old or new.

    I remember the thread back in the happier days years ago where we were freely sharing codes and prize wins from I think McVities at the time - team spirit abounded, prizes shared and by and large everyone would play nice. To get just an ounce or two of that extra cameraderie back would be great. And for those that don't want to be part of that kind of world, the options are clear; why not get back in the sea or get ignored?

    So does that mean when LS talks about her troubles she's depressing everyone else? Or when nanny says she had to go to hospital for a procedure is she depressing us? When bubbs talks about her sore arms she's depressing us or when the elite lurgy takes over and everyone is feeling rough they are being depressing? Or when someone comes on looking for support because some one they love is dealing with illness or had been hurt they are depressing us?

    The heart of this thread has always been the love and support that has always been offered up when someone is in a time of need. Think of when Mr 3Dogs passed away, or madmuppet. The amount that has been raised for charity in honour of our members who have suffered.

    This thread has been an actual lifeline to many members, when they have had no where else to turn. And I include myself in that. I am not a prolific poster by any means, I've never found a glitch or done anything that might be considered useful, but I've had support when I've needed it no questions asked.

    I'm really saddened by some of the stuff I've read on here recently. I count FC a very good friend and the personal attacks are totally out of order just because she dare have a different opinion to the masses and chooses to voice it.
    ...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.


  • Talking of coffee, can anyone please confirm if the APG correctly compares the 200g Jar of Nescaf! Gold Blend to £4.00 in Sainsburys and Waitresses?
    Thanks.
