Hi David, Everyone is the same sometimes, we all get a bit stroppy, sometimes it not surprising on here. What a pity you feel like that Lou. Dee there are some here that write rubbish (seems there are those who don't mind or don't notice lol.) you certainly aren't one of them & never have been. I get fed up with the people who think they own the site & the snide lot that do be around. Agree with CB if we all had a delete button there would be no one left on this site as there isn't anyone here that truthfully likes everyone, so while you are deleting someone someone else is deleting you.

Yes David, recently-ish I saw a thread that was clearly posted to provoke. Was a bit fed-up with it, so deliberately left the boards for a day or two. I wouldn't let that person have the satisfaction of thinking they'd driven someone off the site! x

David, No comment necessary - there's more in life to go wrong than deserves explanation on this Board. CB >|<

Hi David I have just had a strop, and am feeling a bit better for it (till the next time that is) Thank you to those of you who think my rubbish isn't rubbish, it's just me having a lack of confidence day really, and I get rather a lot of those Dee xx

Dee, I've told you repeatedly that what you write has value. Always. I won't get upset that you don't take my opinion on board though ;) Paul x

Paul Sorry, I know I'm hard work, I find it very hard to believe people when they say nice things about me, that's part of my problem. I have lost count of the times people have told me to stop putting myself down, but at the end of they day, when I wake up feeling down, I feel pretty worthless Sorry David, didn't mean to hijack your thread Dee x

sometimes a thread or a post will aggravate me, but then I just ignore it. Occasionally I will come in on a controversial thread, but usually only trying to calm troubled waters. i would never let anything on a message board affect me to the point where I feel I have to delete myself. I get too much enjoyment out of chatting to people. i don't let the site take over my life either, i do other things for a while then come back to it. So if I was upset at something I would have a day off the boards making cards, scrapping or doing something with my tree. Life is too short! Ann glos

Dee, Sorry to butt in, but you are one of the most interesting contributors to this Board. You can safely leave writing rubbish to those of us who have more practice at it! LOL CB >|<

Jacqui :)) You know I wouldn't delete you! Why are you bringing religion into this though?:) hiya Glenys - it looks like most of us do it then lol Ello Shell;) Dee - you can take over my threads any day ;) Hi Ann You don't seem very stroppy on here - but I have noticed you'll have yr say when you need to lol. Yr right about letting things on a website getting you - bit daft isn't it. I'm either too sensitive or too stroppy:))

Well Dave, I've just had a great STROP. Sent five e-mails and NONE of them would go!! Stropped for 20 minutes, before asking for help from TOOLS... to be told that I was NOT connected to the internet!! See, stroppy and no one to blame... but me. Deanna X

Because Mr Owen Sir, I very rarely get a strop but often a monk! I must say that I never actually feel like having a strop, more that a strop is foisted on me, so ergo I would have to answer no to your original question..........I dont ever feel like having a strop, but do suffer from a case of the strops from time to time, caused by others! Does that make sense? If you dont understand dont worry - not worth getting in a strop about!! lol lol Jacqui
