Re: British family returns home due to lack of Robinsons juice hahah
Rather unfortunate responses to date. No wonder few bother to respond these days on this forum. But back to thread. I could have sworn I'd read Robinson's Fruit Juice , was a reason given a few years back for folk returning? Perhaps more a life and death issue than would have expected?
I expect the real reason though was the obscene cost of life in Australia along with the lack of ease of walking into a job, or a reasonably paid one, that many appear to think are there for the taking in Australia.
Shame the lack of juice distorts the real issues namely around what mentioned above being the most likely problems to be experience.
PS. Are you really a 'Dansk Kvinde?

Anyway, the member in question ****-posted across various sections of the forums with posts designed to stir people up - a troll - and has been banned.
If you have any other issues with moderator actions, can I suggest you pm one of the mods / supermods. - admin

Re: British family returns home due to lack of Robinsons juice hahah
OK same story then. I do recall it. Good of you to clarify though.
If I have issues with posts I will certainly react appropriately. I do not tend to go behind backs and report tit tattle either. Not sure why you mention moderator activities though for I tend to comment on the post and the sometimes apparent bullying that seems to accompany the tactics of certain replies. I have experienced such behaviour myself.
But again thanks for the clarification with regards to this particular post. Nothing further to comment.

The OP is just a troll, but pretty funny in that "she" is probably the most stupid one I have ever seen.

I'll let you off on this occasion, you being so lovely an' all. I have Robinson's squash here so my life is complete apparently.

Funnily enough, the aged parents came to visit last year and we gave them Bickford's lemon barley cordial, which they loved. They went back to the UK and in the absence of Bickfords, bought the famous Robinson's lemon barley water. Hated it.

£10,000 to move then scrounging around for £8 for a box of tea bags. What about the big picture?

Reporting dross like that is not to 'go behind backs and report tit tattle' - its a matter of being a responsible pmember of the forum and reporting junk so the original poster gets sent where they belong. Mods cannot read every post and need to have reports sent through so that they can see where their attention is needed. Otherwise forums would drown under a pile of junk threads very quickly. I know as I've done the clean up job many times
