Mrs Frugal Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Thanks Kooringa . I read your blog yesterday and meant to leave a comment but got called away and forgot when I came back. I'm glad you're also getting positive comments after her vitriolic attack. She'll get hers ! No Olbas oil unfortunately but plenty of eucalyptus oil, honey, lemons, fluffy pink bedsocks and a Tigger hot water bottle . Should get me over the worst .

Guest Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I don't go on Practical Poultry anymore so I haven't seen that Sarah. I'll be on my guard ! I am sure that forum regulars will recognise her style and steer well away! I ma a firm believer that every dog has it's day; I have often seen nasty people get their come uppance, and although I am not religious, I reckon that 'someone up there' is keeping note - she'll end up with bad karma! We are much better than that, and won't stoop to those depths! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Hi Kate Sorry you had such a bad time of it. We're behind you (and have rather a nice selection of green and blacks if you are interested.......) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Good morning Kate I hope that you are feeling a lot better today. When you are totally recovered, please could you stop all the alerts being sent to me notifying that someone has posted on a thread. I can't find where you put the offer to do this - sorry. Absolutely no rush at all, so don't hurry to do it. Next week will do when you are firing on all cylinders. Best wishes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 No, Kooringa, I can do it now so don't worry. Thanks for letting me know about it. It must be yet another glitch with the upgrade, I'm afraid but it's easily sorted! There, that's done. Let me know if it continues and I'll click it again. Feeling much better today thanks .

The Dogmother Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Not getting any sympathy at work - might go home if it gets worse, then they'll miss me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 If its anything like the cold I had it was HORRIBLE - I normally work through colds, but this one knocked me for 6 - I ended up taking thursday off and spending the whole day in bed. I couldnt even get up the energy to eat (I MUST have been ill ) I am loads better now - but you really need to take it easy - especially so close to Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 They are still coming Kate - sorry - can I do it myself to save you the trouble? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Thanks for the sympathy Mel. Unfortunately we are REALLY busy at work, so I need to be here. Got annual appraisals on Thursday too - don't you just love it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Lovely Just make sure you keep wrapped up warm and take lots of medicinal wine and chocolate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 They are still coming Kate - sorry - can I do it myself to save you the trouble? Just wait till I get hold of that gremlin!! Do you know which topics they apply to Kooringa? I'll do a quick look through your postings and see if the Notify Me When A Reply Is Posted bit has been clicked. The gremlins did that to Mel and Ali too so I know what it is, it just takes a while to find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I can't find that it's been clicked in any of your recent postings Kooringa. If you could let me know which topics the e-mails take you to, I'll make sure that the notify me bit is disabled, then I'll go and beat up that gremlin! Hopefully it's OK now?

Cinnamon Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Just looking at the River Cottages site & forum. I didn't even know there was a site, & I LOVE Hugh FW i might just sign up if I can think of a good enough name The thread is really interesting & both you Kate & Kooringa have come across as nice ,reasonable well informed people, whereas the other woman just sounds like a nutcase! Maybe she is a wooden coop manufacturer......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 She does make her own coops, Sarah, but we've yet to see a picture of one of them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Done it - I am a signed up member of RC now too! Just got to think of something to post now............. I think I will be sticking to reading it for a while! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I spend most of my time reading all the topics and threads and replies on forums and I find it fascinating. I am more chatty on here amongst friends, so don't pop me head up and leave many postings elsewhere. My eldest son tells me about all sorts of forums and it is amazing what is out there. I try not to look at too many or else I do not get any work done! Glad that you joined RC the newsletter is usually very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 The thread is really interesting & both you Kate & Kooringa have come across as nice ,reasonable well informed people, whereas the other woman just sounds like a nutcase! I was there as well Sarah* - do I come under the heading of "nice, reasonable and well informed" or "a nutcase"? Or perhaps I'm just the Invisible Woman?
