The other comment is that people are stopping posting or not as much because of over the top abuse . . . do you think this is acceptable? I don't and the Forum will then turn into souless place without them or their views.

It would be nice is you didn't put :zzz: , this makes me feel like a idiot for posting what I did, not sure if that was intended

I have to say that I agree with this. There has been so much abuse lately and it is worrying, not to mention really depressing. :(

Why post this? Your ego flagging a bit? Need a shoulder to cry on? Who really cares? Not me for one.

G, not sure what's going on, not sure if you've had enough of us but just want to take this opportunity to say thank you so much for your advice and support you've given me - it has been very much appreciated.

Has DD been banned too! What on earth is going on around here? :(

Quite agree. Your honesty, knowledge and straightforwardness makes you an invaluable member of the forum.

I suspect you (and others like you) get targeted because some people don't like the truth or at least an honest opinion from a nice person. You've never struck me as being prejudiced, racist, malicious or fake, so you are being treated unfairly to say the least.

Come back G! :(

G, you've gave me top advice in the past, especially on MY 'Goodbye' post, please don't! .... :(

I've been on this forum since about Feb 2003 ( :scared: ) and this type of post comes around time and time again.

Some people dont want their dreams shattered by what others think of Australia but everyone has the right to voice their opinion (to some degree!)

So be prepared to listen to everything without spouting off if you disagree

Everyone has to cut the next person a bit of slack, thats life. ;)

Take in what people say about a place, then when you get there you can make up your own minds...from experience. :) Thats the only way you'll know the truth

Ah such happy happy times. Made a millwall/chelsea match seem like a great big love in.
And dont forget Flo (or was it megs) bursting into song every five minutes.Sometimes even a duet. The old bailey wasnt just a place of justice. Badge doing his one man bit for Australian tourism. even wbb stopped posting for a while as it got so rough. And hardly any need for moderators. Meet ups were but a far distant thing of the future. Karma ! karma !you got to be joking karma pah!!. 18 months - 2 years wait for visa's(now you can image how strained things got). And everyone was a dreamer .....
Such simple times

I was just about to reply to a thread re - opinions on avatars and I always love Dollydaydreams (me being an avid cat lover) but when I went to check I had got the right name - can't find Dollydaydream on the member list. What has happened?
And Grayling - so sorry if this really is goodbye. Being a nurse myself, particularly psych, and knowing Grayling as a nurse tutor of the past - feel a bit of attachment there, keeping all us nurses in perspective in the nursing forum.
Don't know what's going on.
Hope it heals.
