Yeh there's usually a Saturday next week :))


Is the traditional fate beheading, maybe?


Sorry sorry sorry :))

Apologising is a good thing to do when, after the event, you realise that you have done something that may upset, cause offence or whatever.


Writing a smug, pedantic email pointing out a typo in someone else?s message and then writing ?sorry, sorry, sorry? at the end is something else. It is acknowledging fault and excusing yourself. If, at that point you were sorry you wouldn?t press send.


Am I being over sensitive? Maybe. Like many people who were subjected to crap educations I need to work hard to be vigilant in my use of written English. It was only as an adult that someone offered me fairly unhelpful label of dyspraxia. However, I am a stubborn bugger and when it maters I am disciplined enough to be vigilant. On a public forum, after a couple of rums I may relax a little, I may make a couple of mistakes.


Your message reminded me of every small minded teacher who plagued my early years taking delight in errors of spelling or presentation and ignoring the content.


If you feel the need to say sorry before you do something maybe you should consider not doing it?

Quite the most surreal thread I've read!

None of my business(GO ON TELL ME!) but Sue was GENTLY pulling your leg...having a MINOR laugh.GENTLY teasing you in an endearing way and you turn round in a hissy fit and say you won't bother next time?????...and then we have Sue apologising 1,000 times even initially when you said it in an endearing way???

I realised decades ago that Women should (generally) NOT "tease" other Women-its the combination that just does NOT work 9/10 in my experience.Male/Male Banter is what most Men in All-Male Offices thrive on and miss if they have to leave somewhere.Male/Female or Female/Male is usually fine...

Its like in Offices when a Woman teases another Woman and then says immediately after "Just kidding!"...SHE KNOWS THAT,YOU KNOW,EVERYONE else knows that so why be sooooo insecure and say it?.If U R worried that someone is not going to see the joke or take it in the endearing,friendly way it was meant then DON'T SAY IT!!

Rant Over...

p.s.This has irritated for 25 years now,I'll have to psycho=analyse why though really I DO know!:))

p.p.s. I only read this thread as I am a Dog-Lover!..lol

LOL..When you have taken on the might of The Catford Greyhound Public (until its sad demise in November,2003) where "All Human Life Was There"and it was in its multi-farius forms(!),much of it crawled up from the Woodworks and Sewers to join the human rodents and vultures already in attendance on the Terraces,who would take your every penny and then boop on you afterwardsB) you feel that you can take on the World(which it often seemed like I was doing!:))

45 years of colourful(!) exchanges with fellow Millwall Fans adds a few layers of thickness to ons skin,as well(tu)

I too only read this thread in the first place as I am a dog-lover :))


I don't think this is anything to do with male-female patterns, T.L.S., so don't let's get into all that again, lol :))


I think it's about sense of humour incompatibility :-S


Relieved to hear from others that I hadn't been over the top, however, as I was feeling a bit battered :))


Oh and yes, use the ******* key that makes paragraphs, PLEASE, your posts are virtually impossible to read!! HINT - it's that big one on the right of the keyboard with a little left-pointing arrow on, probably beneath the backspace key :))


Edited to say: You have to use the big key TWICE so that you have a space between the paragraphs, rofl :))

How many you got then,uh? Can you beat 4 absolutely adorable Westies(2 boys/girls) eh??...Thought Not!:))


"Oh and yes, use the ....blah! blah! blah!"


Oh! Thats choice! How utterly charming! I defend you like Sir Galahad seeing a Damson In Distress and then you start having a pop at me,as well:(

Thats bleedin' marvellous....(6)

"Damsel" in distress,even:))

I think I need to lie down in a darkened room as I'm coming over all unnecessary...;-)B)

Hey, don't get me started on my dogs - bet you can't beat Lipp and Lapp who have their own MySpace page, and Spotty who is a Descended Canine Master with his own website :)):)):))


Mind you, probably your Westies live neither on top of a wardrobe nor in a wooden box on a shelf :))


I've been called many things in my life, but never a Damson ....

    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
    • Hear hear. Very well said. Thank you and all the best for the year ahead
