Do you really expect everyone on here to follow up all replies with a 'thank you'. How long do you think that would take ? This is supposed to be a forum for helping people. It's nasty individuals like you that are putting people off making any more worthwhile contributions.
You are so wrong. Ceri is not nasty. She can however APPEAR to be very nasty, but so what?

You can never win a debate here and it is not the debating academy. It is the internet. You know LOL (oh I feel dirty now) IMHO ROFL.

I take exception to comments by ceri and others (including you) on occasion when I feel you have painted an opinion with too broad a brush.

A bit of reflection is is a good thing. Take a bit of time to respond (or don't) when you feel offended.

Well, if that's what they think of my "valuable" information on how much beer I drink and what I'm having for my tea then they can sod off.

Toys and dummy out of the cot.

Oh yes I am .. I'm a nasty, nasty, nasty person - down girl!

Ironic isn't it - some people who I will not name because I'm in a "cob" now (sulk) have time to insult me but no time to say thank you - lol

Nasty girl you!

cheers

From what I heard from people in OZ, the humour of this site kept a few of them going, comforting to know others felt the same way, had the same problems, even if they were not up to posting for fear of criticism.

So much for OZ lifestyle forum, most of the 'Oz residents' have now been banished.

As my Australian husband said when he read todays posts "Not very Australian is it".

"Got a Cob on" - well that's a saying I haven't heard for a long
time. Sorry to be trivial.

;)

You haven't said "cob" in "yonks" - lol. That's another one for you "Yonks" (ages).

cheers:)

Ceri - I think your computer is confusing the 'n' key with 't'.

Judging by that photo you posted when you were out fishing.

Time for a bikini shot methinks.

Whoops the sexist censors are gonna get me.

Over the last two days a lot of posts by PB and Jayr in particular plus some others have been deleted by the moderator.

All lighthearted and negative posts By Australian residents are now placed under the heading Junk.

It appears one too many threads appeared by UK people complaining about the likes of "reality" posters who live in OZ. They have won and it appears the residents of OZ are now silenced. If you are looking for those posters humour and honesty it looks like you missed out.

Interestingly enough I purposly checked on here early this morning to see if posts negative on the UK, or UK residents using humour towards other people were being deleted. Not the case however, not at all.

I hope the whingers like the new squeaky clean OZ is wonderful, UK is crap forum. Dont expect to find many OZ people in it tho everytime they make a funny or negative its deleted. For those who followed the realistic posts and the humour its Goodbye. Hope you all enjoy the new but in my opinion very biased forum.

Well PB, Wilf and the like are certainly not humourous (unless you like incessant schoolboy 'humour') and I certainly cannot remember one single post from them that was in the least bit useful or realistic.

It's been a joy to see the back of PB. Let's kope it lasts.

This forum is come one, come all. Or should be. You might not find PB funny, but I do. I also find him well-informed about Oz as many find it to be once here - witness the "Now I see what PB has been on about" posts that a number of people send in once they have been in Oz for a while. You will be doing one yourself one day if your heart is big enough.
