Minnie the Moocher Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 ...how lovely it is to find a forum filled with genuinely helpful, kind and thoughtful contributors? I returned to a forum today that I used to frequent but left a year ago as the I found the posters there so unpleasantly smug and argumentative (push me and I might give you a clue!), and it made me realise what a truly friendly bunch you are. I'm really pleased to have found you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimmyCustard Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Me too Min, very friendly and helpful about EVERYTHING! Like having new friends that you never meet. Kimmy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 It's great here isn't it, you can ask any question you like, no matter how dumb you feel, and "Ooops, word censored!"ody makes you feel daft at all. This was only the second forum I'd ever been on and it's the one I've stuck with. Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 This is the only forum I've been on (apart from a quick visit to another one - which I hastily left ). I really feel like I have a whole new network of friends . And even my family now say "ask the Omleteers" if we have any kind of query .

Guest Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 There's an imbalance though - it needs more men. This forum, not the WI...... otherwise it would be known as "The Persons Institute". Actually, it might just catch on - off to print some leaflets..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I am new to the forum world and have only joined this one as it is so friendly, I looked at a couple of others but one especially had really abusive posts telling others that they were stupid etc.. (unrepeatable here) I do hope Christian hasnt gone AWOL - I am on one of his courses next weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 ...I do hope Christian hasnt gone AWOL - Don't worry, Christian has permission of leave, just a few days off the forum. Rest assured that he is not related to Gordon Brown either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 There's an imbalance though - it needs more men. This forum, not the WI...... But they do have equal opportunities on this forum........they just can't keep up with all the chat on chocolate.....pants........housework avoidance.....Crocs.....

Minnie the Moocher Posted September 13, 2008 Author Share Posted September 13, 2008 I used to have conversations with my OH. Come to think of it, if he joined we could redress that gender imbalance and I could talk to him. Two birds with one stone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I love it here too! It is a lovely, genuinely friendly place to come to at the end of a hard day so that I can go to bed smiling and feeling good about the world! Long may it continue!
