I switch my PMs on and off depending on if a trusted member has something important to say to be. I can't be bothered with extra-curriculur chit chat.
Im sure youre right Floydy ,its best not to get involved unless its a genuine conversation

Re: do you have FOMO ?

Aren’t people suffering with FOMO, just nosey parkers or busybodies and when they aren’t on the internet, they are curtain twitchers, watching everything that’s happening in their road!

surmise - suppose that something is true without having evidence to confirm it, i.e. not seen

PMs, which seem more to be for sniping at others behind their backs nowadays
seem - have the appearance of being, i.e. seen

Yes that's a great observation, so to speak Art.
We probably know as much (or as little) about our neighbours' lives as we do the members on here.
But why should people want to know everything about us?

Aysa, l bet there’s a few on here who could tell us how many visitors their neighbours had and the colour of their cars.
Some could even reel off what washing was on their neighbour’s washing line, how many knickers and the colours!
