Tell you what HAL, why don't you have a rummage about online and see if you can't find some evidence of me and life-threatening pastimes - I'm sure there's some out there (*sniggers*)


Or now that LM's expressed her disapproval on the subject of stalking, wouldn't that be allowed?

And I thought the bucket list was for things you'd like to do, not, not do!

I am at a loss as to what you could be getting at here. However, for the record, I do not believe I expressed disapproval on the subject of stalking. I contributed to LE's stalking thread giving my experience of being stalked at the age of 16. I did so because I wished to make the point that I did not find stalking/stalkers funny. This is very different to expressing disapproval on the subject. And please, be clear, I have absolutely no objection to LE's thread.

Apologies if this is a little base.....but I've always wanted a wild all nighter with two naked 20 something women in a 5 star suite, complete with jacuzzi, Stones on the stereo and chilled Dom Perignon on tap.


And yes, I reckon I'm still young enough to get away with that without it sounding creepy.

I logged in today at 5pm so missed whatever you wrote earlier.

You posted asking for opinions about a particular, easily identifiable eBay transaction. I don't feel I did anything wrong to look up that transaction - anyone could have done so. If that made you uncomfortable, I apologise.


If my sense of humour has offended you, I apologise for that too.

For what it's worth HAL9000, I don't believe you did anything wrong either.



> anyone could have done so.


And I am sure some probably did...only minus the subsequent openness and sincerity of expression.

Well, I'm really going for it...may as well...concentrate on being alive - as a dear forumite (you know who you are) recently suggested to me. Fortunately, as I already have the hubby of my dreams and some pretty amazing friends...I am in a good position to ask for lots of other stuff. So, being a greedy wotsit:


- see my friend Fran's breast cancer fully clear so that she may live a full and healthy life

- ditto my friend Verena who is currently in remission with myeloid leukaemia

- and also (gosh this certainly helps to put things into perspective) my friend Joan - also in remission with bone cancer

- see my sweet little niece Louise recover quickly from having been knocked down by a speeding car yesterday

- watch my nieces and nephews grow into happy and healthy adults and hope they will always call me Aunty Mimi

- hope that my brother's business expands so that life isn't quite as financially challenging as now

- hope that my sister can give up the booze before it kills her

- hope that hubby gets the job of his dreams

- ditto another forum buddy (I hope you know who you are)

- hope that, yet another forum-friend, achieves the "domestic bliss" he so desperately wishes

- hope that M's divorce is as painless as possible and that she finds happiness with a new partner quickly

- hope that the gap between rich and poor closes world-wide

- spend at least one month in Antartica and drink in its beauty

- learn how to swim in deep water

- learn Mandarin

- learn how to fish

- swim in a clean river and/or lake

- swim/play naked in the sea with hubby on a deserted beach

- see a puffin

- play in a women's football team and end up beating West Ham in the FA Cup final (just for you ????!);-)

    • Nope, I'd just get on with my day and forget about it. And I wouldn't report them on the basis that they might spill my coffee in the future.  However the OP seems to think that this young woman is deliberately pushing her bell, slamming her gate etc, having repeatedly been asked not to. I'd wager the woman is a bit pee'd off and there's a bit of a stand-off going on. Best course of action is to go out, take the parcel, smile sweetly, say hello, tell her you hope she's having a nice day / staying cool etc, in a way that comes across as genuine and not pass-agg,  and to let it diffuse. Might find it calms down a bit.  But I like the girl hate the idea of her being denigrated on here when she works so hard. 
    • So of you're in a coffee shop and the barista is rude to you you wouldn't complain as long as you had received your coffee? 
    • OP, you've got to relax a bit. Multidrop delivery is a total nightmare and the delivery drivers are woefully underpaid. We as a society all want to order stuff online and for it to be delivered quickly and cheaply. The square gets circled by allowing companies like Evri to have sham contracting arrangements. None of this is your fault OP but the delivery person is just trying to get through their workload as quickly as possible. Delivery is not, historically, an industry with large profit margins. “The only way it can be profitable is if you underpay the person who is the courier, by not treating them as an employee, by not paying taxes, by not paying their insurance, by refusing to give them sick pay or cover them if they have an accident or train them,” says Prof Annabelle Gawer, the director of the Centre of Digital Economy at the University of Surrey. “That is where the ‘savings’ are coming from.” https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/mar/01/the-hidden-life-of-a-courier-13-hour-days-rude-customers-and-big-dreams
    • Can bet the Co Op is nearing its exit soon. At those prices you might as well buy at waitrose!
