General Chat

A separated chat and general like before would do me x

oh i wouldnt have one of those wanted to be home asap, altho had to stay in 3 days :-|

i think it could get silly with 2 many boards, i think people forget its a genealogy site, not just a simple internet forum,if they want hundreds of seperate boards they should go on freinds reunited, digital spy or the likes,

unless they wana add a board just for me, "strays board" yes i think it has a ring to it ;-)

I always recommend the epidural to any new mum that asks.

Shame it didn't work the second time for me (well only down one side anyhow lol)..but I don't tell them that....because the time it did work was blissful !!! ...but I only comment when asked. ..and if i elaborate further my worst comment is *it's a bad day then it's over* x

goes without saying muffy, as before, id look at both boards ot see if anything tickled my fancy on either,

lol Chris, i had a pretty bad time after i had baby satan but id still have another ;-) but i dnt scarmonger new mums, i never tell them about after i had him, just that its not THAT bad lol, x

I'm with Chris on this !!

I intended to have 3 until my 30 hour labour with my youngest lol x

Rose and Stray - re childbirth - 'you will forget the pain when you hold your baby in your arms' (they are still saying that today.

Cobblers - my youngest of two (aged 51) I can recall both labours as if they happened yesterday and little wonder I can hear myself saying throughout the last labour over and over again - 'never again, never again' and I didn't!! :-P

A medical board/illness board is a recipe for disaster ...i totally agree..

I will say that as was the case before...if there was a thread that interested me on General....a debate usually...I wouldn't hesitate to contribute if i felt like it...regardless of spending most of my time on chat.

I'd still cherry pick when and where I chose to post without fear or favour..x

"whispers" i only said that so i could be in BC gang

Blimey Stray, considering you,re (70) you seem full of beans. :-D :-D ;-)

and then there is some who would, try and out do others illnes, no it would never do,

Rose thats a pet hate of mine and it tell all expectant mothers, if it was that bad people would only have 1 child, "altho doesnt sound good coming from somone who only has1" lolololol

Rose a number of people have stressed their concern
about people giving advice
especially on subjects they barely know anything about
they are not doctors or nurses

like stray said it could cost lives so if you ill see a doctor
it could very well save your life

would GR be responsible if something on here resulted in a death ???because i am sure some would point the finger in their direction

* Likes* Stray's post :-D

I too am concerned at the potential for real disaster in medical advice given out by those not qualified to do so, sympathy is one thing, but we have all seen 'scaremongering'.. I am put in mind of those old horror stories of childbirth that some women seemed to delight in scaring the newly pregnant with! :-0

Dan went to into the policeforce.

yep agree,,,,,,,,,keep all the wooden tops on chat and have gen for the more staid adult..... ;-) ;-) ;-) :-D :-D

Beware MTG. She,s Auntie Moties Doppleganger and is` looking for Scullery maids etc.no pay just drudgery all the time. :-S :-D :-D :-D :-D ;-)

GR are looking into lots of things,i thought it would be better to merge chat n general, but now i wish it hadnt been,

my fear if they have a board for, illness, etc, is, people will mis diagnose, and give the wrong advice, endangering people, as there is a few on here who think they know better than others, the best advice for anyone who is ill, is to seek medical advice from a doctor,

Much better when Chat & General were separate. Anyone recall the daft threads when Daniel featured a lot - wonder what the boy is doing now? He must have left uni.

muffy ,leave my cat alone,Uncle Tom Cobley. Do you mind? Its Uncle Sebastian Tom Cobley if you don,t mind ,Hrumph,he was most upset by it. \and as to paying Double for the other site. well I suppose you will always Flash The Cash at us poor Serfs. :-D :-D :-D :-D.PMSL. ;-)

Oh yes loads of space :-D

Thank you Jude.

Yes it's very good that they're looking into it.

And I didn't post on the other one for reasons well known...hence bumping this one...there's obviously room for both threads to co exist happily though x

l think the difference with the other thread is that Puss is saying that GR are looking into it....thats good of them is'nt it ??

jude :-D
