Arseholes at it again then? What a waste of space on this planet they are! I am so sorry that they have attempted to spoil your day (and probably lots of other peoples days) On the plus side (not a very plus side I admit) the sort of action they take only serves to reinforces our own thoughts of loved ones, and no sick minded individual/s can get into your own mind. Havvent explained that very well, but I know what I mean! Chin up ducky, dont let the ba..ards get you down. love Jacqui

Gwynne... I am so sorry. As you know I used the site a lot to light candles for my daughter. I have not been onto it since the last outrage. My dear Aunt has had a second stroke and has been taken off all treatment. She will die any day now and, although I do light candles at home, I would have gone onto the site to light a candle in her memory. Perhaps I wont bother now as it has been desecrated yet again by mindless morons. I will light a candle in honour of your Mum tomorrow in my home Gwynne. Jean x.

Gwynne What can I say that hasn't already been said? I like so many other members understand your upset. We all feel & think the same towards these disturbed individuals. Gwynne in your heart is where your Mum is and always will be - her memory , love & smile safe for you and yours. Some lovely alternatives have been suggested here on the thread - particularly like Bob's suggestions - I think I may reflect upon this for my garden as in July will be the one year marker of the passing of my darling dad. Much happiness Debi-x-

Hi Gwynne Sorry to hear this is happening again. Mandy mentioned timing. I think their timing was deliberate, done when it would have the most effect. Sally called them Amoebas but I think they're much lower down the chain, they must be to delight in this sort of thing. Pls try not to let them affect you too much, easier said then done I know.

Sorry to read this is happening again! I haven't been onto the site since last upset. I was going to light candles for my Mam and Dads' rememberance for February and March, I won't now because I won't allow anybody in this world to tarnish my memories of them. I can't believe there are nasty people who would spoil such a place for peace. I feel they haven't lived long enough yet, to learn of others suffering and have compassion for others.God help them when their turn comes........and it will!! Hope you are okay now Gwynne Mau xx

We've just got back from visiting Dad in the nursing home. Thanks to everyone for the lovely pms and emails, I think I've answered them all. The offensive candles have been removed now let's hope the site is left for those who find comfort there. Gwynne

Thing is though something needs to be done, cos this ain't gonna go away. When the saddo's feel like it they will just do it again, then all this will be stirred up again? catherine xx

I agree with catherine something has to be done, firstly to stop the pain and hurt and secondly to name and shame and stop the insinuations as to who it is, Caz xxx

you can't just name and shame though-you have to have proof, then approach the persons or person and tell them you have proof, something that only they can know-then you name and shame. maybe the candle folks can look into something-they must be getting pretty sick of it. God knows what the peeps on there think catherine xx
