Cover blown

Tegan, that seems very strange doesn't it?I know FlicketyB 's village and she knows mine ( we live near each other) but we don't know which street/house etc and would never pry.

Someone on another forum pinponted the exact stret I lived in, and this was a forum that is totaly impersonal ie no pm facility or profile giving! It wasn't a problem but it could have been! And I gave no specific details at the time, just a general comment about a pub in my area being on fire.

Someone had been asking about crowns, so I told her about the one I'd just had done. I probably mentioned that I'd been getting a bad taste from it and was suspicious that he was fobbing me off, so that might be why he was miffed.

Mine was blown because of some details of my activites that I let slip, but have never had any repercussions since.

Was it because you mentioned your doctor's surgery? I try and keep anything to do with my area, non specific.

Good grief crun!
I seem to live in an area where people dont spend much time on forums. Thankfully.

There's a limit to how much you can say on forums without somebody recognising you, not everyone on the internet is at the other end of the country, some are in the next street. I had a remark from my dentist to let me know he'd been reading my posts.

All my family know my Gransnet name and sometimes ask what various people are up to. My sons occasionally check out my posts and the eldest once took the trouble to look up what the grans had to say about a DVD box set called The Wire - and bought it for me because 'the grans thought it was good'. My husband is more interested in themes and we'll often discuss points of view expressed on here. Even one of my lodgers expressed an interest in a particular situation where one of the grans was going through a particularly difficult situation.

Flickety if you're still there .....
Come back soon, I always enjoy your posts.

My kids know my name. I send them links sometimes, if I think the subject matter relates to them in some way.

Mine wouldn't know how to access GN on my iPad. Even if he did he would never be curious enough to look. He doesn't quite get the whole concept of GN and I think finds it slightly amusing. Some weeks ago, when Bellasnana told us her very sad news, I was in tears. Had to tell him it was my hay fever as any explanation would have puzzled him. I think Mr F was a bit naughty but I can see he has a sense of humour to actually create a name and join GN to make his post. Yes, I know this is just speculation. I enjoyed reading FB s very grounded comments. I hope she gets back soon.

DH knows my name and if he doesn't like what he reads then he should not read it

My DH is the same as yours jingl. Runs a mile if I ask him to read anything on here!

Gosh I hope I haven't set the cat amongst the pigeons and misread the situation. Feeling a bit now.

I think Flickety must have left GN open on their 'puter. Great sense of humour Mr F.

Just looked at the 'Virus' thread. Poor Very Old Bear! (serves him right though )

My DH knows my 'name' on here, but would never be arsed to read any of this stuff.

I would have thought even if your 'cover has been blown' you would feel that what you post is of a good character and quality not to worry about it, how sad you feel it necessary to change your Username.

I hope I recognise your new Username as I always read your posts and thought of you as a poster who I respected the view of as your posts I found to be rational, well expressed and not preachy, biased, narcissistic or unpleasant.

annsixty I think you have hit the nail on the proverbial.

Is it fair to speculate?

That you are right I mean.

Yes I think that too.

If an explanation is needed I had deduced that it was fb's OH who had outed her.calling himself very old bear but I am wrong more times than I am right.

Ann that sounds ominous
