He might also have been trying to be courteous by sending the message privatly...

If somone had an issue (not just a disagreement), with somthing i had said, i would rather receive a private mail about it.
firstly the "issue" was unfounded
and secoundly the message was far from "courteous"!

I would have thought a social worker would have to be....Some of the things they have to deal with can be quite traumatic.

Ellen Dont you just love the posts from people who say
' If you are that sensitive then Oz is not for you'
I have met a few sensitive people everywhere i go, it does not mean they should not be there.
Dont let these buggers grind you down, i am on your side with this one.

i deal with things that would give most people nightmares, if i was too sensitive there would be a lot more damaged children and families in my particular area.

Why are you getting so personal rosy, i have no issue with you. All you are doing is what most of us on this site are complaining about, "MAKING THINGS PERSONAL" and doing your best to wind people up!

I wasn`t the one who "got personal" first Ellen! You were the one who decided to tell everyone you were "hard as nails"... thereby telling all about your PERSONality...

Before this gets into a pretty silly slanging match, I merely pointed out that "sensitive" is not one of the Australian people`s natural traits...and therefore those who are sensitive may find it a little more difficult to integrate than those who are not. Great that you are like them - I wish you well...

Ellen, this is a membership requirement of the dotty fan-club!

Some people just don't see it. Perhaps someone should take the time to copy a few samples of dotty's cutting remarks, just as a refresher for some of the new members....and perhaps the weekly "for all you dreamers who think Oz is a crime free utopia blah blah blah......" when nobody says that, ever..

Anyway, I said it earlier but you're fighting a losing battle here, 'they' can say what they like, but you have to walk away..Simple!

T-shirts, knickers and posters will be available soon, PB tried to hi-jack my order but its obvious I am better looking. A dotty fan club meets Friday nights, entry is a couple bottles of red and some smutty pics of David Beckham. Keep the noise down if you arrive after 8pm the neighbours complain.

The signed photo you asked for is in the mail.

Love Dotty XXX

Here goes,

'Oh Dotty! You are soooooo right! Wonderful post!' (in the style of Audrey Forbes Hamilton of To the Manor Born fame)

Do I pass?
