Like you, Mary, I haven't been following that thread. In fact, I've been
too busy in the garden to read the group for some time! (Marvellous
weather for this time of year, isn't it!)

Until today :-(

Although I've had little interaction with Judith, and never did see
eye-to-eye with Sacha, I am nevertheless disturbed to hear that they
have been driven off by one particular poster.... Me, I would have
stayed and slugged it out, but then a good old cat fight never put me
either up or down!

Well, I'd have ignored them - I find that silence is a great put-down :-) In
the distant past Sacha had a spat with me but I let her have the last word
and once that's happened there's nothing more to say, is there?


... I don't think creating another
NG would help, TBH.

I said it without enough thought, my idea was that a new one would enable
the hurt ones to come back with dignity but that we could all start from
scratch and deny offensive posters from our individual screens. On
reflection it's a bit OTT, I think, if people want them back enough they'll
mail them to say so.

Well, I hope Sacha and Judith reconsider. I'm sure they're made of
sterner
stuff; at least I would hope they are!

It's up to them. I suspect that they might be glancing in from time to time
:-)
