I agree with you Muffy. I also think it's a great shame that more people don't post. It's always the same names that seem to appear. No disrespect to those who do post. :-) :-)

You are proper nice too Julia....and thank you Island....I felt a bit bad saying it really...but i'm used to speaking my mind (within boundaries) and questioning stuff...we always used to on chat. Now it's considered almost sacrilege to say what you feel.

I feel like the naughty girl of the classroom with disapproving teachers tutting at me lol x

I agree with you Muffy and don't think you are being negative at all.

I'm sure I'm by no means the only one to have gone through unhappy times and look to 'chat' for some daft banter just for light relief but feel mean and flippant if I bump something trivial up when the front page is mostly serious stuff. So there's many a time when I don't post.

Initially, merging gen and chat was jolly but I think members have mostly drifted back to their preferred level of topics.

Thank you Rose. I wasn't meaning it in a negative way..I hope I managed to put that across x

Rambling Report 8 Jan 2012 17:58

I think that's a good idea Muffy, and not in a negative way at all, it could have the threads which used to be on here like Carol B's Garden of Remembrance which was a comfort to many and a link to the candle site.

That way those seeking positive thoughts and prayers would have a calm place to post, and those who are best at sending comforting words and/or have a belief in the power of prayer could use them to best effect. :-D
