Think that there always be ratty little small minded people who think that to cause trouble in others names is the best thing in the world.
Most of them have no other life

Daff, have a wonderful time at the wedding and I hope it stays dry for the wedding. We go on Sunday and return 27th.

Might be able to get on line when Wendy is there although, sadly, they are away for 9 days while we are there.

Wmsl Ann..... I know, it felt a little strange hearing Gwyn call me Ann, on Tuesday.... not for long though..... !!

Yep, I knew it was going to be tooo small... but I did hope, as one does ;¬((

The wedding is this Saturday... we are driving up tomorrow, and back on Sunday, when are you flitting off again?

If I don't speak before, I hope you and Tony have a BRILLIANT holiday..... I will give you an update on the plantlets when you get back, lol.... they are still all doing absolutely fine... we definitely have the touch, you and I lol

Love

Daff xxx

Hello Stray.... I know what you mean... yes, I have the receipts, but, well, I am still hoping to magic away some of the extra inches and fit into them next year.... *ducks at flying pig*

Merlin... panic not... there are loads to choose from that will not give away your true identity, lol.... I have a beauty that I refer to as Mamma Daff.... I love her, but every so often I'll change to a photo of the cats, or a flower (poppy for Remembrance etc) or just silly ones which reflect the mood I am in!!

I am sure you could find a suitable avatar.!!

Ann GG, yep, Ann in Glos (now can you see why I changed my name to Daff, lololol) is right!

Sally.... I thought we'd used all that Egyptian Cotton up with the tee shirts for the *sort Boo's teacher out* protest????

It doesn't give, you know... no stretch in it at all!!

Love

I think avatar is another name for the photo or picture that appears by your name on some sites such as facebook, Family Tree Forum etc.

Daff......give up on the imponderable one......stretched the brain cell with a political viewpoint on another thread, and now I am done for.....no views, just air space.....lol....

As for the t-shirts, now Daff I have offered to run off a couple for you from my spare Egyptian cotton sheets.......cheaper than M & Sp.......x

MrDaff Report 28 Aug 2008 12:51

Or having to ask permission, like on other sites.... maybe they will give us avatar facilities???

That's true, Daff, but a small price to pay to eliminate deceit.

Or perhaps a 24 hour delay before your name changed.

Hi Ann... yep, I still have the reciept... but I also have a lingering spark of hope that I might fit into it (and the lovely red top which is also too small) next summer, lolol


*sighs again*

Gwynne, it would be a huge bonus, wouldn't it? If that is going to be the case, I don't think I will be able to bring Peace on Earth back with the Christmas decorations though, which would be sad.

lolol Gwynne... Wallis never seem to have my size in there, either!!

Webster, I don't know the answer to that, I'm sorry... it does seem strange though, doesn't it?

edit: I suppose that as long as the fair trade price has been received by the initial trader/grower that is what matters... if the endmarketer wants to lose on it then that is fine.

Another thought..... Fairtrade is becoming a big seller... maybe they are now being counterfeited too?

It is since they were made abroad wherever, their sizes vary a lot. I assume you have not still got the bill Daff? Take the small ones back and complain bitterly about the variation in sizes. If you haven't got the bill you will have to accept an exchange for something else I think, unless you are prepared to push it.

more to the question, how comes i could purchase a fair trade tee shirt for £1.50 from a high street shop.....how fair is that exactly?
