It's safer not to give any personal information on the internet, there are some nut cases out there.

If someone wants to trawl through my few details on a forum for elderly people to find out who I am and track me down they are welcome
I have nothing worth stealing and am hardly a candidate for Miss World I am also very feisty and anyone who did track me down would not have an easy time...

You are fairly new Maggis - I havent known anyone to be nasty without provocation. Willow, yes, she speaks her mind, as we all do, but there are ways of saying things, you are entitled to your opinion, but to judge others is not really fair.... Its a good, enjoyable forum, gets a little heated at times, only natural. BTW, your original comment suits Willows profile very well....

Do they Maggie where people come from or go to I care not as long as they don't start promoting or grumbling about other sites to which they belong (which is of course is bad forum etiquette) and behave themselves when they are here.

Some people who are nasty in one place are fine elsewhere, I think it can depend to some extent on the people they meet on site . We give all new members the benefit of the doubt here

Someone mentioned 'cliques' I would be most offended if anyone ever accused me of belonging to a 'clique' as would any other independent thinking member. Belonging to one indicates to me a person hasn't got a mind of their own.

I enjoy reading about fellow members and looking at their photographs but if they choose not to post any I quite understand.

I was NOT snipping! I was just stating that I wasn't interested in where people came from, what is wrong with that?

Re: Why the Mystery ?

Maggis, you asked in your original post why people don't put which country they are in?
Maybe it's because most of us are in the UK ... and we put our county in.
As for hobbies, well some people share this information when posting, and you get a 'feel' for peoples' likes and dislikes the longer you are here and the more you read.
I hope you will continue to enjoy posting on this forum.
