General Chat

I posted a thread earlier on this morning about let's have a GR niceness day, and as usual hardly anyone could do it. Still the bickering going on (re: dave's thread) What's going on with you people. Life is too short to get nasty, and I mean that from all sides. There are people dying, children getting abused, surely there are more important issues in the world. The best chat I had today was on a simple thread about curries, thanks to Manda and everyone else that contributed. Oh and the spray tan one. come on people get a grip here. catherine

I'm with you Catherine! Only a few days ago I was thinking how great these boards were, everybody so friendly and helpful. What a difference a few days can make. Everybody has problems in life but lets try to count our blessings not our misfortunes.

Here Here Ang. Couldn't agree with you more. I post to most threads, most get ignored, but hey, that's part of being on this forum.I won't loose any sleep over it, tomorrow is another day (or as some people prefer a nasty day) Health and happiness to everyone. catherine x

i agree cathrine, havent seen threads concerned, but ive got so much going round in my head at moment,(due to someone else making their problem my problem,) i need uplifting, and some laughs could do with curry recipe myself,

good idea Catherine. I'm not usually argumentative but felt entitled to my opinion. ;-) Claire

Any time you want a good curry recipe Julie Ann, see me. Hope you get everything sorted. catherine x

These boards ARE great, the majority of the lovely people on here are non confrontational and peaceable. BUT from time to time, as in real life, there is unrest. It eventually dies down and we all get back to enjoying ourselves. Keep on being nice and try and ignore the nasties....XXX BC

If I had the money.... no lets be positive when I have the money I will print a newspaper called 'Happy News' Only happy light news stories allowed. I try to avoid newpapers & news reports as they can be so depressing. It in our hands folks! People power !

your totally entitled to your opinion claire. I had someone last week say something that I could have took as a nasty comment, but I thought, hey I don't know you, I can rise above this, I have far better things in my life that all this bickering (not that I'm saying you haven't) Please I'm the voice of reason. Totally placid me. I have no problem with anyone. Ask the guys at the manchester meet, they all met me. love to all xxxx

Lol Ang.....someone in the States, I think it was California, started a newspaper which would only print good news....he went broke in six months... Lol BC XX

Hi I hav'nt been on these boards very long, it started light hearted but now i'm not sure what is going on? I tend not to get involved, i have posted to threads that interest me but sometimes it's as if i'm invisable. Ann

*hiding in here* What a shame people have to spoil things again, Another early night with a book........Not worth saying anything else over there......

Ohh buttercup! Now you have burst my bubble! Ok I will print my own - readership of one!

I know what you mean Ann, don't let it bother you. I'ts the same for me I've only been on these boards 3 years. If no-one replies what does it matter, everyone has different interests.

did you notice,I think it is all us girls on here................nuff said....

yeah your right sandra just us girls eh!

Just reading through this and my kids when they were young in the back of the car falling out with each other jumped into my mind, heck they still do it now, 20, 18, 14 years old. I'd sit in the front passenger seat and at the top of my voice start singing. 'HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN' They soon shut up!! Fi. x Please feel free to join in the song.

HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN AND THE SKIES ABOVE ARE BLUE AGAINNNNNNNNNN

i just removed a thread i added to a thread, cos i didnt realise the first page was the start of major trouble, i only read title, each to their own but if they cant be nice, then i dont know why they bother, nice is nice, an elderly man said recently when chatting to me, he had heard a lot of bitching over years, and said, you know now i sit here chatting to you i know what a lovely girl you are, im not boasting thats not my style, but hed been led to believe wrongly, this man is my father in law, pity some on other threadsdont realise, nice is nice , FILs fav saying

Lol F.C. My kids normally shut up when I sing too. x
