They don’t help themselves do they?

I wouldn't say I'm enraged Call, more exasperated that people want to read this kind of thing.....I agree with you about the spoon though.

Some people are talking about uniforms of retired personnel being okay to wear as long as the letter "R" is worn. Can I ask where is the letter worn on the uniform and what form does it take.

It would have been decided by someone else what they were to wear. There is a whole volume of information for service personnel in the Queen's regulations manual advising active or retired as to when they can and can't, should and shouldn't wear their uniforms. This is not a decision they would have made.

At leat this thread made me laugh. Suziewoosie accusing other of being vile and vindictive. Pot, kettle, black!

So eaten up with aggressive anger she can’t just withdraw and allow the family to grieve for a much loved elder.

Pathetic and rather sad.

And here comes another personal attack - only one or two to go now and it’ll be Bingo ??? maybe you didn’t quite use enough negative words with which to attack me but hey you can have another go or someone else can.

It is really quite unnecessary, why aren't those posts deleted? I think people forget that (hopefully) we are real people sitting behind our digital screens with real life crap going on. All the name calling is really off.

If only H & M had not given that 'interview' and kept any issues they had with the RF private, there'd be none of this ridiculous speculation going on.

I agree Jane - calling people “petty and vindictive” is unnecessary. Oh wait...

Well who knew? The RF get agitated by what random middle aged women post on anonymous forums about wearing uniforms.

Suzie, you are personally making the Queen's life worse. Apparently.

It needs reporting first but there is a school of thought that says call them out on their posts and leave them there for others to see what passes for adult debate for some posters.

Oh I know, I know, I know. There’s no hope for me is there?

I have never called an individual poster petty and vindictive - I may well have described some threads as demonstrating those qualities ( with justification) but that’s a different matter from all out personal attacks.

Why?

A couple of weeks ago Suziewoozie quite deliberately and vindictively bullied me off a thread with her personal attack on me.

She mocked and sneered and wouldn’t stop. Even when I said I was distressed and felt bullied she carried on.

I just want that known.

Well you'll be pleased to know that Meghan has 'forgiven' the Royal family.

I have scrolled through this thread and there is no mention of that in any of her posts?

H has only got the one grey suit and brown shoes.

I actually don’t recall that at all but I do know that some posters equate bullying with being criticised, corrected, challenged or disagreed with.

I suspect that if Boris Johnson had decided to go to the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral, he would have been attacked with equal vehemence for taking the place of a family member and for double standards after having asked the public to stay away.

Sadly, politics is more about debasing than debating these days.

Good grief Aveline Meg has forgiven the royal family ?

Surely she hasn’t made an announcement

No, none of those.

You went for me personally, mocked me, sneered at me and wouldn’t stop.

Deny it all you like. That’s what you did.

I remember reading with sadness Peaseblossom's post in which she said she was now' in tears'. It's deplorable that a poster can reduce others to a state of such misery.

Yes Anniebach she has. What a relief for the Royal family!

I wasn’t even disagreeing with you, just agreeing with another poster.

I’m fairly new and you obviously thought I was a softer target than them.

Well I hope Edward don’t have the cheek to put one on again I can’t stand to see him in uniform and medals when he didn’t even complete basic training
