Good Morning Everyone,
I slept to my usual sleeping pattern last night .
I am trying to get the manager of the building to pick up my prescriptions .
Hopefully things improve soon as to health .
Take Care,
Mick

I am shocked to read this despicable post on what is usually such a supportive thread, bile directed at a still vulnerable poster.
You should be ashamed, Calpurnia.
By using the term revered, in what I suspect is not meant in a positive way, you have shown that your post was personal.

Perhaps take your own advice on board, if you can't say anything pleasant about someone, keep quiet.

Marydoll Sat 08-Jul-23 13:22:58

I have reported too!.

I read this thread every but seldom post. Calpurnia that was totally uncalled for and rather nasty.

I too read most days but seldom post as I still think of myself as a “newbie”. I am appalled by Calpurnias post. Although she says she reads regularly surely if she did she would know how much sadness and trauma GM has had in the past couple of years and how amazingly she has coped. To pick on GM shows how insensitive Calpurnia must be.

An unnecessary and nasty post Calpurnia.
I suggest you take your Grandmothers advice and leave gMattie who is jesting at herself with her neighbours, alone.

calpurnia, what on earth is wrong with you? This is the kindest and most supportive thread on granset, one of the few threads that did not have a nasty poster, until you came along

GM is a much loved and greatly admired person and we enjoy her straightforward sense of humour. She makes us smile

The post is still there and I am also going to report it

Totally unnecessary post * Calpurnia* I suggest you work on growing a sense of humour.

Germanshepherdsmum Sat 08-Jul-23 13:51:43

I hope GM realises how much she is loved and admired even by people who don’t post here. She is an inspiration.

Blimey what an uncalled for post, Calpurnia

grandMattie please carry on regaling us with news of your inmates

I will post my news tomorrow.

grandMattie Sat 08-Jul-23 14:55:20

I am very touched about your concern and thank you all for your lovely comments about me.
I was taken aback by the tone of Calpurnia’s post but feel sad that s/he has nothing better to do and no sense of humour , to spend time picking on me.
I’m not perfect and often end up with my foot in my mouth - of course, the “inmate” comments include me. It’s a bit of fun, we all feel slightly institutionalised from the sort of attitude of the warden. Yes, that is her title!
Thank you again.

Yep, we had a warden too gM and she used to check on us every day and would walk in unannounced as she had a key to our flats. Aaaargh. Glad you're ok.

How sad to be the person with neither understanding nor sense of humour. We love your comments, gM, and take them in the spirit in which they are written. Don’t change!

Georgesgran Sat 08-Jul-23 15:30:56

Calpurnia. - apparently your namesake was a shy and humble woman - pity you aren’t. Uncalled for post, maybe continue to read rather than post, until you get to know others better?

GM - you go girl!! X

Marydoll Sat 08-Jul-23 15:56:16

Calpurnia is not a new poster, she has asked for and received support in the past.
Perhaps she is not in a good place just now.

luluaugust Sat 08-Jul-23 16:35:04

All the best gM I always look forward to your posts

grandMattie Sat 08-Jul-23 17:58:55

Perhaps she is. Sad that she should take her distress on someone who has never badmouthed her..
The post has now been removed at my and several other posters’ request.
End of story!
