    Although I'm used to that sound when we're in the GCHQ common room and I'm talking. :noidea:

      I really don’t know why you’ve highlighted my post @Mike Allen . I don’t think a few times reporting suspicious posts warrants the suggestion that my “index finger is poised over the report button “. All were reported for good reason and I did “let the mods decide “.

      The racist comment I reported was not yours, BTW.

        Oh dear. I fear my post further back may have contributed to worries and anxieties raised here. I'm truly sorry to everyone on GC if so.
        It's the shortest day tomorrow, then it's downhill all the way to Spring... when we can get on with some time in the garden again to raise a more productive sweat.:psnp:

        To be even more positive, we received a rather nice Christmas card today which also contained a little packet of seeds in the shape of a tree to grow. It's a sweet idea, if I am successful at growing a few christmas trees out of it, I shall share them out, maybe at someone's Open Garden event? :smile:
        Now there's a scary thought for you, @shiney?

          Not so, pattie, your post was fine, it's just that members do react in different ways.:dunno::nonofinger::snorky: I think the subject veered off subject every now and then but, understandably, members just wanted to get free of the aftermath of leaving their last forum. I think the subject is well and truly "cooked" now with every one having had their reminisces about their bad experiences and realising that they have left it all behind and can get on with enjoying being in the GC Gang.:thumbsup::snorky:

            Agreed - anything that has happened in the past is exactly that - in the past. We do not do grudges here, and we take everyone as we find them, regardless of anything that may or may not have happened elsewhere.

            We are delighted that @LauraRoslin has found us and along with many others has become one of the GC family - I think it is time that this was put to bed now, and we get on with enjoying each others company. With that in mind, I am going to close this thread, for now at least.
