It's a dull day here today but, who knows, the clouds may clear later on.
It occurred to me when I got up this morning that each and every one of us here on FG has problems to deal with...some might appear worse than others but they're still difficult for the person involved. And I know, for my part, that I can get irritable with others when I feel I'm not dealing with my own problems very well.
I felt myself getting picky on this thread last night. I like Bez a lot, she's a lovely lady both on FG and in person. And that's what I should have said instead of what I posted to you, Val. I'm sorry.

thats not what i said
if something bothers members, they could contact the person direct & attempt to sort it out before putting it onto the board as these type of threads have always resulted in bad feelings for someone concerned

Can I get involved ?
How does one know whats going to upset one member or another ? There are so many different types of personalities here. You and sneezer are very different, thats ok. Spot and I are very different, thats ok. But this is an open forum with some guidelines but still very loosely framed. This is a place for an exchange of ideas and sometimes that will include flare ups. Its just the natural progression of things, its to be expected. Pm's are useful but often more than one person is involved in an issue and the boards are here to be used. Things have a way of working themselves out Scot girl.
i think thats fair enough comment nomad, flare ups are to be expected in a group this size, all im saying is - this type of thread is almost asking for one
its just my opinion & im just giving it, i dont look for people to agree with me :-6

Of course. Everyones opinions and thoughts and feelings are valid. Etiquette, respect and common decency are prefered naturally but its not a perfect world. My best advice would be to teach by example.

I do. I'm your typical shy, *shrinking violet* kinda person. :yh_rotfl I almost got through that with a straight face.

Id have to agree here fluffy. Im sorry if that makes you mad, but Foopy made quite a bit of sense from my perspective. Foopy doesnt often make sense so lets give credit where credit is due. :wah:
