Grrrr that's it really!

Does the lives of some members revolve around MN or something? Some of us have lives and other things to do other than sit on a PC all day in case we're spoken to on an Internet forum!

YANBU, but i suppose people don;t like to feel they are being ignored

often posters will say ' going to do school run/ go shopping/drink gin until i pass out, so won't reply until later/tomorrow/ when my hanogver has worn off'

manners cuts both ways i think

hope your house move went well

I didn't post a question, someone else did and I didn't know I was going to move house before I got back on.

i have no idea what the question was, maybe someone thought is was important and wondered why/where you were?

Erm, not sure if YABU or not,

It depends on the thread and question. But it is definitely not worth you getting angry about.

Perhaps it would be simpler to reply now and just say you haven't had access to the net. Problem solved.

Totally unreasonable to expect to have a real life

I moved house!

I wasn't given advice, it wasn't an advice thread I think I was supposed to have answered some point made to the general. It wasn't even the poster that said it.

I'm not angry really, just shocked at coming back to find out I should've been here.

Clearly your priorities are all wrong, why were you not at an internet cafe at least once a day?

Linkage required before thread can progress. All in favour say Aye!

It's not a topic I want to go back over, I was glad to have a reason to not be on it. It wasn't a personal thread and not one that needs resurrecting.
