......but I've had a little drink so I will! LOL. Does anyone else feel that lately we seem to have been infiltrated by a little band of people who seem to be hell bent on causing upset on these boards? I'm getting more fed up with this by the day and spend less and less time on here..........but I shouldn't be made to feel like this. Am I alone feeling like this? Jeanette x

Cheers Rebs! ;-) LOL Em.......and especially at this time of night. I used to come on here after a night out and have a right good laugh. But more often I find it's full of people squabbling. Ok I admit I do say my piece, but you can guarentee I've bitten my tongue til it's in tatters first! LOL These peeps that are stirring it though never seem to have an answer for their behavior!

Things have certainly changed a lot on here in the 12 months or so that I have been on here. When I first joined in, I felt there was a small clique of people who knew one another and I felt a bit out of it then I started to get to know them. Over the last few months, there have been several new people on here and most of them very nice, but there seems to be a new clique group here where they have so many in jokes and spend a lot of time together so others can feel very left out. All the name changing doesn't help and I am sure lots of people look in and go because they don't have the confidence to interrupt or join in.Then there are others who always seem to want to be top dog, almost in charge of the board as if they own it and seem to take against certain people so they start to stir. Come on folks, life is too short for all this gameplaying and unpleasantness. Liz

I haven't been on the boards as long as you. I think I started about Feb ( although I have been a member for a year ) But in that short while I have noticed a difference. I don't put threads up..only once...Incase I offend. Sometimes I'm afraid to reply in case I say something wrong. It shouldn't be like this. There are some great people on here and I can honestly say I have been laughing so much I can't see the screen with some of the threads. C x

I think this board would benefit from moderators, although I know some people would disagree, but something needs to be done on here soon. M.
