i saw the thread from her earlier and your joke that i think she took offence to (but was actually quite funny, it brightened my afternoon anyway) and completely agree it was uncalled for.

ooh the mention of cheesecake is making me hungry * rumages in the fridge to see what i can find*

still smiling, just checked on that, had forgotten about that post, and for the benefit of others, here is approx how it went.
margaret posted a thread asking if it was uncommon for a family to have a baptism and burial on same day.
I replied that perhaps the church had a BOGOF offer !
She obviously took offence to that. But her response is still unacceptable.

Sue, it's mandarin cheesecake ....... at least it was !

Not such a flippant answer as you may imagine.
If the family have to hire the church for Grandad's burial, they may as well get the baby baprised at the same time. The church is hired, the vicars there and the relatives have taken a day off work etc!!

totally agree its unacceptable. this hobby is supposed to be fun and shouldn't be ruined by people like that. i'm sure it was meant to lighten the mood anyway.

mm the lure of malteesers is just too much. am off to watch a chick flick and gorge on choc. :)

enjoy the cheesecake.

lmao LD. One in my family did that... well I thought they were my family until Monday when the certs arrived and I found out they weren't but you get the point. I would have laughed at it if it was ancestors... not so funny if it's recent but how can you be offended if it was over 100years ago

BTW I'm disappointed that poor Edna doesn't exist...she says I can have her cheesecake :-)

Phil, how old are you, are you single and are you good looking lol... all vital attributes for a laptop dancer...

no really they are

LD Report 1 Feb 2008 21:26

Maggie I agree, I have an ancestor that got baptised into the church the same day as her granddaughter.

Well Laptop, nobody would lie about being 42 so that bits true at least LOL

~Summer Scribe~

~Summer Scribe~ Report 1 Feb 2008 21:31

Hmm... well LD I can't imagine anyone lying about 42, if you were older then you'd say you were younger than 42 for sure. Well I would lol. Point in case, my grandad who was at least 44 became 38 on his marriage cert...incidently he may actually have been 57, and therefore could have said 42 but chose to go with 38.

*nods sagely* as for the rest... who knows lol, but then I look like Pamela Anderson with out the need for the op!
