General Chat

Val Well she did say you had put in a bulk order of broomsticks at Ikea. Lin

i agree lin i had that a few months ago .unfortunetly we are not on here all the time if someone else had asked the questionthat we give so for the people who say this it's worth saying nothing or replying to the questions we askxxx(:

Thanks Fee B I know it's not personal - the churpie chappies on this message board have convinced me of that - quite a lengthy discussion - plus a get to know you all. Lin

Lin You just wait until i see Lynda again i.ll show her,do i take it she thought i was like an OLD WITCH.Ha!Ha! Val LYNDA BOOOOO

Hi Lin, Sometimes I feel as you do as quite a few people are on more regularly than me then they have formed closer friendships through the site and half time,I have no idea what is being spoken about.Let me reassure you that it isnt a personal thing!

lin, think of lisa from southsea, she asks so many questions people only get round to answering half of them before work finishes! x

Paul - thanks for your message, actually with regards to your conversations I usually sit back and read together with a good chuckle, you certainly like to give the girls a wind-up. Alaine - Paradise is where you want to be, unfortunately I'm at work, where's your paradise? Lin

Hi Lin I understand where you are coming from as I posted on a thread on the records board the other day. It was someone offering lookups of 60 million current addresses. Loads of people were asking for a lookup but the person who started the thread didn't put any replies on. I asked if anyone had received a reply the other day and when I looked again today, there were lots more requests. Obviously no-one even read MY posting, just the original one! The originator has still not posted again so I put another one on today. No doubt that will be ignored too! So the moral is, don't get disheartened if you are ignored, it happens to us all. Glad everyone has cheered you up now. Lynne

After due concideration and some very tempting job offers - the best and most tempting was working in the post office. I have to inform you one and all, and I say this with much regret that I have been offered a more varied position - and yes I can imagine all of your minds have now turned to smut honestly. I have been offered a position as the village doctors receptionist. Not only the gossip but personal ailments as well - Yes! Lin

Hi Lin Your pretty new to GR arn't you? I've been a member on here for probably about a year and a half, and it's not that people don't want to answer your threads, it's just that everyday there are so many new topics going on, on here that your thread keeps getting push further back, if you want an answer to something don't let it disappear keep nudging your thread back up to the top, everybody else does it!! Where about's in paradise are you I might come and join you lol!! Alaina xx

lin, i hope you dont feel that when people strike up a bit of a chat we dont want other input? whenever i'm messing about with lisa and manda other people join in all the time and that's a good thing. and if ever you've replied to my jokey ones i just assumed you were kind of saying hi im listening really. sorry to offend, next time dont sit in anger, just post and say, 'OI, STOP IGNORING ME!!!!!' XXX

Lin - lol lol roflmao - trust me:o))))))))

Val I've heard from Lynda that you have the ability to spook the spooked that's why Jamaica Inn was spookless. Lin

Jude just saw your message on Piercefields - had to giggle, I read it to fast and the first thing that came into my head was "Do Americans and wonderful balls?" sorry Lin

Spose it happens to us all at some point,but l don't thinks its because people don't want to reply to you - like me they perhaps don't really want to reply to the particular thread and as the threads move so fast people often don't realise that subject has just been chatted about. This morning l replied to the Friends and Neighbours thread, gawd knows where it is now - we have all been wishing Gaynor good luck and Paul & Sharon, plus the village fingy - its just the way of the boards!! Don't be offended though:o( Just found it on page 2 - but so many messages have gone before it!! Jude sarf wales

Hello Lin, I don't want to be controversial - but I know EXACTLY what you mean. Sometimes I wonder if it is only me that can see my post! When I do get a response it's usually from someone who isn't a 'regular'. I get very weary of putting my point of view, being ignored, and then someone else puts forward the same thoughts and others pick up their ball and run with it! My fingers itch to say 'But I just said that!' Most threads stop dead with a post from me - so I apologise in advance lol Magsx

Hi Lin You mentioned hobbies and most haunted well i spent 5 days at the "Jamaca Inn " on Bodmin Moor supposed to be haunted well we did not see or hear anything ,but it is a lovely place very oldy worldy ,the only thing about it was that the floor boards creeked and the doors sqeeked which was a bit earie . Val

Oooooooooo Lin could you find any info on an old derelict house called "Piercefields" in Chepstow, its on the race course grounds and now owned by them. l have looked but not found much. The americans took it over and had wonderful balls there - but for some reason tried to burn it down. l have some photo's of it and apparently the Chepstow Race company are going to restore it - can't wait.Thanks for the reply:o)))) Jude sarf wales

Sorry Jude - lets see hobbies - have you every watched Most Haunted, well it's not a hobby as such but I tend to rummage around very old and historic buildings. Mainly because of the history factor, but if there is a scary story attached all the better. Am I scared? the answer to that is sh**less and it gets the old blood pressure going. Lin

Im here *waves hand in air * lol I agree Lin to chat over the keyboard is very frustrating....I usually post and come back if I can about 5 mins later or the next day.......I find there is just too much going on and if the connection is slow the threads take a life time to refresh etc..........so my intrests goes. Like you see nout better than good cuppa and a face to face to put the world to rights is there...... : ) Much happiness Debi
