Why do they think our posts on here are so all-important to us that they have to contact us before deleting one, to give us a chance to "withdraw the post" of our own volition. confused It's a website. On the Internet. It's not holy.

And while I'm on the subject, I'm 73 FGS! I do not appreciate young whippersnappers, even if they do call themselves 'GNHQ' talking down to me as if I am a naughty schoolgirl. hmm

No chance of that, jingl, now you've written " off of".

Do you by any chance wish you'd given it a different title?

Anya Thu 13-Aug-15 18:32:20

I miss everything!

jinglbellsfrocks Thu 13-Aug-15 18:19:14

And do, please, feel free to call me jingl. And I will call you Trish. smile

Umm...... Joking Trisher.

Oh sorry I was unaware that there was a rule about not posting about other threads on a thread. This makes things even more complicated-and even more "big brother", Sometimes I think things are connected, this was one. apologies to jbf if she thinks I hi-jacked her thread. But I do think GNHQ are a bit unpredictable!

jinglbellsfrocks Thu 13-Aug-15 17:58:29

I haven't posted for yards down the thread! shock It's you lot. hmm

Ana Thu 13-Aug-15 17:53:02

No chance of that if you keep posting on it! wink

I wish this thread title would bog off go off of Actives now. blush

Ana Thu 13-Aug-15 17:47:32

I blame that trisher...grin

thatbags Thu 13-Aug-15 17:39:58

Surreal it is then.

thatbags Thu 13-Aug-15 17:39:04

Because we're not supposed to talk about other threads on threads, or something.

thatbags Thu 13-Aug-15 17:38:31

I certainly was.

thatbags Thu 13-Aug-15 17:38:03

Sorry, ana, it would seem I was confused by assuming we were talking about this thread, the one we're posting on, when I chipped in.

Indinana Thu 13-Aug-15 17:24:31

Me too Lona. I haven't even contributed to this one so far, but I have enjoyed following it grin

Lona Thu 13-Aug-15 17:10:51

I do enjoy these mad threads!grin

Luckygirl Thu 13-Aug-15 17:08:38

....thank goodness....!

Ana Thu 13-Aug-15 16:34:03

Nothing to do with huge egos...hmm

Ana Thu 13-Aug-15 16:32:59

It was on the Discussions of the Day list when I posted, thatbags. GNHQ had called it 'Babysitting' but the actual thread was 'Advice Needed' about GPs losing a GC on an outing.

thatbags Thu 13-Aug-15 16:25:24

Active page and Home page Discussions of the Day now:
