Awww Ann, you're not old, either. Blimey, if the truth be known you're not even old enough to be a recycled teenager yet!

*realises what a creep self is being, so creeps off thread lol*

I have always been and will continue to be Pat from Wesham.
Then you all know who I am and where I am.

I decline to wear a badge with my name on though in case someone takes it as an instruction !

2 x Gt. Grandma was Ann from Bala

3 x Gt. Grandma was Anne from South Wales.

I have just ordered marriage cert for x2 gt Grandma cos Bala wasn't much of a clue as to where she actually lived..

Once she is sorted then it's on to x3 gt Grandma.

thanks Glenys - it was a nightmare but nearly over now!!! Us Welsh will have to stick together - by the way I'm a senile old Welsh woman - nearly right apart from the senile bit!!!!

Mmm, I don't know how the thread went Ann, as I'm usually absent when they are on (well, it seems like that anyway!) but I can see why you're cross.

BTW, good luck to your son. I've heard that these perpetrators do things out of sheer jealousy. That's great that the plonker who texted him has been traced, although I thought it a foregone conclusion that he wouldn't have the intelligence to think about police powers. :-))))
Luv from Glenys (a Welsh name by the way, so whoever you are - here I am! I await your pms with interest).

Mmm, I'm a little worried now. I just went to amend my board name adding my membership number, but it wouldn't let me.
Seems to be a glitch somewhere!

I know it's a T & C issue, but I still really wish we could name and shame, in the interests of security.

As all you Sue,s seem to be confused,as most of us are regarding the name and Who Is Who. Which one of you is the "Sue" that "Johnny Cash" sang about?.**M**.:o))))>

Ann - I am sad and disappointed that your thread, expressing your gratitude to those who supported you yesterday, has been whooshed. I always thought that in this country we had freedom of speach, amongst other things. I am afraid it now appears we do not. What a sorry state of affairs we have come to.
Some time ago, it became obvious that there was a number of Julia's,Julie's and Jules etc. on these boards, so I elected to use the sobrequet that I do, to avoid confusion.
Best Regards
Julia in Derbyshire

Morning, oops, afternoon, Ann, glad you are still on here and rising above the hoohar!

I was nearly a Sue, my parents considered calling me Susan but they changed their minds and gave me my royal moniker, and called the dog Susan instead lol She didn't stay with us long, too much for Mum with three kids and a hubby on shifts so walking Susan was a problem and she was given to someone else. Could have been worse, might have been me given away lol, but I made a good babysitter for my younger brothers so I suppose I was more useful lol
Back to bed now, only came down for a cuppa and can't resist taking a peek.
No mistaking me, I always keep a Purple in my name even if I change the rest.
Enjoy the rest of the day Susans/Sues, Sallys and Anns and anyone I have missed, oh yes, Jac, Christine, etc etc etc
