Sayings

Just had a chat with my eldest sister about your beef with me... she is a Psychologist and she was saying that people usually act the way you are when they feel threatened by a person or situation--but why would you feel threatened by me.....

OK let's all chill please. I think what has started out in all innocence has ended up somewhere no one wanted it to.

Cool it folks! Cheelu don't be so touchy. ariadne was in no way being a bully stop being so touchy!

Please take a look at her recent threads,

why is she not coming forward come on A you seem to have loads of negative things to say about me I am giving you the opportunity to say what the problem is or do you prefer to just say little snidey things instead

jeni before passing judgment on me and saying I am beeing touchy please take the time to read her posts and I am more than willing for you to prove me wrong

I am upset that she has a problem with me but there are some brilliant people on here and if her snide remarks were meant to drive me away---She must not know about me.....

I was the one who started the chain of comments about meaningless 'sayings' - Ariadne made one comment on this thread and questioned the use of the word 'nice'. This cannot possibly be construed as bullying behaviour. I feel sure that if she had been on line at the moment, Ariadne would happily answer your concerns, cheelu.

As said please read her recent posts--not just on this one-- A little bird has told me of a clique on here I dont wish to be part of as we shoild all be equally welcome on here

anno why are you taking sides

just told my husband about the nonsense going on, on here, he was worried for me, which was nice..so to end this thread ironically with a Maltese saying---Out of something bad, something good usually comes....

Anno does not take sides.

I am being objective.

Oh goodness, I am sorry that you feel that way. I have no intention of bullying you, but may have been somewhat acerbic. Best if I maintain a distance to avoid further misapprehensions, cheelu.

nanado I could speculate it is something to do with name but if it is, its very vulgar.

I had only just come on line and only read the last couple of remarks. My earlier comments stand

As do mine !!!

Lost me there, nelliemoser.
Actually - pedants' alert - I think one saying often misreported should in fact be "Cheap at twice the price", but like other sayings it is used so often that it hs morphed into its opposite - perhaps ironically? I am particularly fond of "mony a mickle maks a muckle" as it very true as is "great oaks from little acorns grow"

Words of wisdom - who can say they are not meaningful?

I am a great believer of--a bit of your own medicine so please do ecpect to be trated as you have treated me..

nanado re "What does 'queer as Dick's hatband' mean?"
my post below was meant to read. something to do with the name.

Why do all my post end up hours behind the ones I am trying to comment on!

There, there, Nellie dear!

Just keep taking the pills nelliem they'll kick in eventually
Good for you cheelu

I was brought up proper and don't know about vulgar sayings! (Well I had never heard that one before!)

Before I get further mocked, or corrupted by those on Gransnet with impure minds, I shall go to bed in a huff and dream my pure and innocent dreams.

xx Night all

My Granny used to say Kiss my ass Kilmarnock, tomorrows market day ...
