    Henlans, this is not a dig at you. However, who are the noobs you keep refering to? You have said that you are not the only one who has said that the regulars are trying to drive the noobs away and put them off using the thread. I know there were comments along these lines on the last thread but I've not seen any posts, other than yours, saying this on the current thread. Who else, other than you has said this?

    I should add that, I have skipped a lot of posts due to the high number of them since the glitch started so, I may have missed those that you are referring to.

    If people are saying this via pm then I urge you to post it on the thread so that people are aware of how you feel. If you say nothing about feeling intimidated, unwelcome, bullied or any negative experiences you have on the thread, then nothing can be done to change it.

    For anyone who agrees with what Henlans has said, please do post to let the thread users know. It is the only way things will change. If we don't know about it, we can't fix it.


    I get where you are coming from but why dont we, all of us, just start a fresh. Dont mean a new thread, just a new day kind of thing and turn this thread around the right way.
    Please don't judge me. you couldn't handle half of what I've been through.

    Talking of fights, load of blokes (about 6) just ran past my flat holding what looked like baseball bats screaming "com on then you ----" etc etc etc.

    Second massive bust up since i been here.
    So glad i;m not on ground floor.
    You can't make someone love you. All you can do is
    stalk them & hope they panic & give in

    OK, I think its time to panic.

    Youngest son still not back, not answering phone or text. I rang where he was going this morning but he has not been there, also rang their office but its closed, rang work although he is not due in and he has not been there. I dont think uni library is open now so he cant be there. His mate lives miles away, usually goes on the train to see him, so I dont think he has gone there. It gets dark in an hour so not much time to go searching to see if he has gone into a ditch ...

    There are some really lovely people on this thread, you know who you are :T

    My youngest son went AWOL today, missing since 10.30 - its as bad as one of the cats going missing :rotfl:Not answering his phone or replying to text. If he is not back by 6 I am going to cause an outrage by ringing the place he was supposed to be going to this morning - he only passed his test a month ago so he could be in a ditch anywhere between there and here.

    Anyway to take my mind off this situation I have written a T list to use some MOCs and also get an TPP hopefully. I am really quite excited about it which is ludicrous

    All have a price difference T being more expensive than A

    Red Square (metro print offs)
    Ariel stain remover, trigger pack (car MOC)
    Beans (facebook voucher)
    Greens desserts - Caramelle and Lemon pie
    Tesco free from yogurts £1 - I have some Bzz MOCs
    Lenor - Pearl and Moonflower £1.50 (hopefully I can use both the car vouchers and the magazine ones)
    Lenor fresh air - £1.50

    Has anyone got any other suggestions. I have all of my SSM vouchers to use, waiting for the right time.

    Out of interest, I noticed someone said the £5 tins of choccies were down t £4 in T's, so would compare at £3.60 (10% diff) on a t shop.

    Has anyone tried this yet?


    That was me but not tried it myself as I seem to have a 'few' other choccy things:D bur I don't see why not

    Wool27 you have some wise words.

    Why people can't just ignore and move on ?

    Some people have had vile mouths today.:(

    You cant put out a fire with gasoline .
    I for one will be glad when the glitch Is over as it's better for that to end than the thread .
    All those that disagree carry on bickering .

    So agree. I always think it best that if you can't think of anything nice to say then don't say anything at all...maybe best if people kept certain thoughts to themselves.

    'Oldies' and 'Newbies' not a nice way to differentiate people...should be 'US'...everyone has something good to contribute to the thread regardless of how long they have posting on it.
    Born to glitch :D
