You've not done alot in the ' short ' time you have been on the boards, have you Amy, to win friends and influence people. A total WUM.

Amy, everyone who has been here for some years knows exactly who SRS is, and her name... now either you are 'new'..but not so new that you don't know footie's age ...or you are not new at all lol.

either way, you don't seem able to contribute anything positive? that's a pity, with so many of the members leaving or about to leave, a positive 'breath of fresh air' might have been appreciated and just what the boards need :)

Kemp, she certainly knows her way around the boards, and the terminology used.

I haven't demanded Amy, just asked a question. You're obviously not new.

You don't want to answer the question, that's fine. It reveals quite a lot.

Right, I have held my tongue over this thread, but I am going to have my say now.
I am not a fan of 'footie', and do not pretend otherwise. But I am an even less a fan of you Amy. Within five minutes of footie making her post, there was you latching onto every word she said, and being your usual rude and obnoxious self. I have never seen you yet to say a good word about anybody and anything. My own thread the other week and the support ~flying doctor~ threads readily come to mind. Even yesterday you were told to open your own thread.
A couple of weeks ago, I remember you going on a thread, and saying words to the effect of " hi, I am new here, can I join in the fun". Yet when challenged you say you are not a newbie, and have never said you were. What is it then, new or not new.
I have an elder sister, by six years, who not only had me to look after, but a brother younger than me also.
Pity you have nothing better to do on a Sunday morning, than go through the boards, and see whose thread you can latch onto, and make usual cursory remarks.
Maybe you number one fan will soon crawl out the woodword, and shout I am harassing you.

The thing is Amy, we know who SRS is and most of the others on here but all we see of you is criticism and sarcasm, we don't really know who you are.

Not all of us Amy have the same types of childhoods and Rose and Joan have both explained my weak inadequate feeling much better than I could

It does seem that Amy has a very sad life as she never has anything good to say on here about anything or anyone.

It must have been quite hard for a ten year old Mel, but it happens doesn't it? I hope that one day you will be reunited with her.

it happen years ago..it happens now.. families get parted..

my sister looked after my 5 brothers and me ..not 24 hours ..as some older brothers helped..my cousin looked after her siblings with help.. at 15 years old still to young to do it the job.. mother ill health father killed in the pit..yes younger one adopted ..and not for the better she was ill treated as we know now.. she would have been better treated at home with syblings who loved her ..

off for a shower ...

Amy...it's an expression often used surely? when bringing home a new baby...for the older sibling/s to "take care of" ... and you can't deny that is what does actually happen in families, the elder child does take care of the youngest,...it's an historically referenced fact if nothing else lol ( as we are on a genealogy site)
