hi all! I am sorry if I upset anyone when I joined in with last nights chatty thread, I dont usually post at night but I wanted to help cheer up Benthosboy who is having a rough time at the moment. I will try and stay on OS topics in future.
Me too I never meant any harm to anyone, I have been and am still thinking of smokey and her family, I just wanted to cheer up another poster.0 -
I am sorry Catowen that you feel that last nights thread was inappropriate, we all feel for smokey and her family and they are I am sure always in our thoughts, They have been in mine and I have PM'd Smokey, but at the same time we were cheering up another of our posters who is going through a difficult time of their own..............If you continue in this vein I for one will NOT be posting again...............I will not be villified again on this board as I have been in the past. What went on last night was light hearted, and it HAS NOT been continued today. I think you owe us an apology.
OK, i see that this is all my fault - i will not post again.
Please dont bother with PMs and posts saying dont go - apart from a few people on this thread i am generally ignored, i post something that once again blows out of all proportion and this particular post has actually made me cry - so i hope you are proud of yourself.
I have before said that i am a very lonely person, who finds the internet and this site my lifeline, but to be so villified for how i feel is disgraceful.
Just because someone has a different opinion does not make it wrong.
Like i said, i do not need fake sympathy - please do not bother with it.0 -
Catowen i pmed you twice before you posted the last message please read them.

Cat your opinion was the same as mine. Please don't stop posting.
You know I am being genuine and you know you would be missed. You were perfectly entitled to voice an opinion and I didn't see you villify anyone.
What a horrible thing this has turned into, today of all days.
As Gingham says, can't we all just move on without making this personal.
Edit...Having just read Csarina's post, apparently not. I am sorry you feel the need to leave the thread again. It's really not necessary. This is so out of hand. 
Edit again...Thinking of you and your friends Cranky. x0 -
Thanks GR
I just wanted to add that I saw last night as a little harmless fun which was helping and supporting someone with very low morale and self esteem atm. I actually feel that the last thing Smokybabe would want was to affect this thread by us not doing something/anything, and that if she read it, it may have given her a smile through her tears, many of us enjoyed the unusual silliness. Let no newbies take the blame there were plenty of us "oldies" involved, it was later at night and harmless, and as GR said we can now move on.
Can we please take the playground out of this thread and stop the "I won't post again" - we are all grown folk, let us be able to disagree amicably.
Today I have overspent as normal we don't go shopping very often, but when we do . . . . Going to put a spreadsheet together in a mo to categorise it. Its not a financial problem, but just like to ensure I keep my eye on it, so it doesn't become one. Checked my Spanish Bank Account this a.m. and the phone bill was bad:eek: :eek: :eek: . Will arrange a 24 hours dial up connection for when next out there. Talk Talk still won't agree the free Bband they originally promied me until July, so thinking of taking my line back to BT £10.50 month until August (only a couple of weeks at home between now and then:o ), and then see what is on offer then. Treat ourselves to hot roast beef sandwich with roast potatoes, so just had a ham sandwich for tea. No sweet stuff in which is getting to me now. Wonder what I can find in the cupboards . . .

Why cant everyone accept what went on last night? There is nothing we can do to change what went on last night. Maybe we can all just move on..because today is a brand new day..right?Sealed Pot dec 08 - dec 09 so far £27.67, Live off £4k Spent £330.20 GC £1,200 for 2009 Spent £50.78 PaD so far £650.07Debts: L/woods £154.00 C/One PAID O/D £649.90 Next £299.95 O/D PAID Gas £72.60 Electric £155.73 Mum £640.00 Orange £490.320
