Off to sit in on another care assessment today.

Didn't I ask that you not escalate this Grace yet that's exactly what you did in your 11:14:12 post. Why? And why are you answering for BB now?

when do you seriously think that all GNetters are mealy-mouthed? I certainly don't.

Well Tegan - there's clearly a lot going on with AKA that is beyond our understanding. Given the two positions she adopts on what is acceptable, I'm moving towards some sort of split personality disorder but she'll put us right

But it was sententious too!!

Confused that someone who posts as 'AKA' is accusing someone else of confused personality disorder .

Apologies Bluebell it was "sanctimonious" not "sententious".

Aka - time you backed off yourself. How dare you post to Grace like that? Just because a post is fired directly at one member doesn't stop others from objecting for whatever reason . And yes I am sick of your psychobabble - it can be hurtful and damaging . And your hypocrisy stuns me - what you've said on this thread and then what you say on the thread about J08's email from HQ. what is crystal clear is that you support certain members whatever they say and trash others whatever they say.

"Calm down dear" (quote). Please don't accuse me of "confused personality syndrome" what ever that may be. I wasn't aware that GN was a forum for "duelling opponents" ,but rather, a discussion forum, and I would ask you to explain wht you mean by "sticking my nose in *not for the first time*". If you are having a private spat with a member, the place for that is a pm - not a public forum. I was not aware permission had to be sought to comment on posts.
To object to "sententious twaddle" and counter with the "f" word looks like double standards to me anyway.

How to aleniate the entire membership of Gransnet.....mealy mouthed members? Can you clarify aka? Surely that's not what you intended to say?

Is that supposed to be insulting BB? If so then I'd have to understand your logic. Are you able to marshall a few facts to back up your odd little post?

Of not if

And you are the epitome if double standards Aka

Oh so you do have a sense of humour after all Bluebell

Aka - what really, really upsets me is that you bring in Harry to a post Referring to me. You really know how to wound an ardent republican. I find it below the belt, personally hurtful , bordering on the obscene and worthy of reporting to HQ.

My friend who was in the RAF for about 30 years has always said this is not RAF barrack room language.

Frank

OK OK whatever.
Like annsixty and maybe others, I was brought up to believe that barrack room language belongs in the barrack room. Feel free to eff and blind as much as you like, but some of us don't appreciate it being fired off in our direction.

I have got to get used to a lot of people disagreeing with what I say and do the main one being about 30 people saying I should have not inherited my parental home although I have some doubt if they know the full circumstances behind that.

I never looked in to qualifying as a social worker.
I don't know if the social work qualification is the same for younger people as older adults.

I do know there were several courses within the council aimed towards working with younger people and I went on some of them and there were some fully qualified Social Workers on them.

I don't know if the 5 years my friend mentioned was the amount of time required in his opinion to train to be fully effective or if he did some advanced courses as well as the basic training.

Frank

With this thread, and the other one ongoing, at the age of 75 I never have and never will get used to the "f" word being casually used in conversation either spoken or written.

Grace look let's escalate this...again. FYI this was the phrase used by Harry when dealing with army bullies. It is succinct and to the point and if you feel offended then take it up with GNHQ.

- no need for that sort of lang***e. (Expect response "Really?")

Aka I agree with you. Frank is never rude and I find the mockery he is often subjected to rather distasteful and verging on cruel.

Bluebell back the f**k off as Prince Harry would say.

Aka - sanctimonious twaddle!!

What is refreshing about Frank is that he is always polite. He never takes offence even to the rudest of remarks or to people poking fun at him. I certainly will continue to read his pronouncements and reply. I wouldn't dream of asking others to not post or his threads or interact with him.
I remember a certain girl at school who also used to say to others 'don't talk to so and so'.
