Sorry I have been out, so I have asked about maryeliza, is she ok and the thread is deleted. Please can HQ or somebody tell me what is the problem with concern for somebody who posts a lot , then disappears?

Maybe Maryeliza has 'Grexited' from GN?!

Ps I wasn't with Trump shock

Although DH said this morning "Your friend's arriving today" which gave me a start as I thought I'd invited someone to stay and forgotten about it!

Callistemon Mon 03-Jun-19 08:37:37

Thankyou so much - nice to be missed (even if I wasn't grin)

sassenach512 Sun 02-Jun-19 23:29:36

There there Callistemon I missed you even if I didn't grin

BradfordLass72 Sun 02-Jun-19 23:28:20

Callistemon Of course we did.

You don't honestly think Trump and all his Secret Service Security people are here to meet the Queen do you?

Nah, we called in the Big Guns to look for you!

Glad to see they found you and restored you to us. flowers grin

sassenach512 Thank you. I will look out for you as well!

Callistemon Sun 02-Jun-19 23:16:38

Did anyone miss me last weekend?

No?

sad

sassenach512 Sun 02-Jun-19 23:05:55

If it's any consolation MOnica I wondered where you'd gone, but then I (reasonably) thought you'd just had a break, I don't understand all these rumpled feathers smile if maryeliza has had a trouncing Urmstongran, she's probably off licking her wounds is all, no doubt she'll be back when the fallout clears

Callistemon Sun 02-Jun-19 22:45:11

merlot grin

I posted on the original thread this morning. Elvive had wondered where she was.

I said that on a thread I had genuinely asked if she was alright as (a) her language was pretty ripe and (b) she was furious when another poster (can’t remember who) had responded to her snippy post saying “I feel sorrry for your grandchildren”.

I know she is erudite and opinionated and has in the past stuck up for herself quite heatedly but on the occasion in question, I was concerned about her as her response to someone had seemed (to me at least) way over the top.

Anyway I hope all is well and she is okay.

I suppose it’s nice to be missed after a day or two of not posting.

Like you MOnica I’m sure I could disappear without my absence being noted.

As I said on the original thread this morning, she may just be on holiday or taking a break. Why not?

M0nica Sun 02-Jun-19 22:26:59

I am with you sassenach512, I am a very regular poster, but I went on holiday for a whole week without posting and no one enquired after me. sad

Possibly they were just glad to have the space without me.grin

sassenach512 Sun 02-Jun-19 20:58:12

I don't get it, I don't post for a couple of weeks but nobody send the search party out for me (sticks lower lip out) sad

Ginny42 Sun 02-Jun-19 20:49:32

Except that someone was missed recently and it turned out she was ill but has now returned,

Day6 Sun 02-Jun-19 20:47:04

Does any of this really matter?

If the poster is not getting private messages, isn't that her business?

I too am flummoxed by all the... erm..."intrigue".

merlotgran Sun 02-Jun-19 20:42:31

I feel like I'm trying to decipher a secret code.

Elvive Sun 02-Jun-19 20:38:51

HQ seem very slow to respond but have jumped in on my original question. Perhaps somebody who read question numero uno could advise us of the content.

Gonegirl Sun 02-Jun-19 20:33:02

I'm trying. grin

merlotgran Sun 02-Jun-19 20:32:11

It's that one that's not there now.

No shit, Sherlock. grin

Gonegirl Sun 02-Jun-19 20:00:29

Sorry! grin

Someone, think it was Elvive, asked where she had disappeared to. I didn't read any further, but I've no doubt a few opinions were expressed. (I reckon she's been banned (the buggers))

Gonegirl Sun 02-Jun-19 19:58:01

It's that one that's not there now. grin

merlotgran Sun 02-Jun-19 19:57:16

Which thread was it? Give us a clue confused

wildswan16 Sun 02-Jun-19 19:52:26

I don't post often so people wouldn't miss me. But if I did, I really don't think I would want people starting threads about me and guessing what I was doing and why I wasn't doing it etc.

I understand it is well meant and may be done out of concern but it does feel a little intrusive to me.

kittylester Sun 02-Jun-19 19:42:17

But, why would PMS not get through?

Chewbacca Sun 02-Jun-19 19:21:21

Maybe she has a life outside of GN? Controversial I know, but its a possibility!

Gonegirl Sun 02-Jun-19 19:18:46

Yeah. And?
