to think that, however well intentioned, favourite MNer threads can reinforce the clique-y image some have of MN and

be hurtful to anyone left out.

And unfortunately, because of the large numbers of MNers, there are inevitably going to be lots of lovely lovely posters who don't get a mention. (btw, I would love to have a with all those who kindly mentioned me, annd loads more too).

I like LeQueen too...the thing that strikes me about her though (and this is a good thing)..is that even if you didn't like her..she wouldn't give a toss.

Exactly FN - I don't think anyone would refer to the support threads as 'cliquey' threads - they're completely different.

LeQueen, it's a great trait, and it's also really good at stopping people being pissed off with you as they sense there is no point

Yes, have been a target of the frothing berserkers..maybe I can borrow some of your thick hide?

Thanks..it goes nicely with my horned helmet

I like the word umbrage.

And now I have to get back to my turkey.

it depends how many grown ups in a family; and how many children. Most of us dont want to see children starving in a rich country

Ah yes, Happy Thanksgiving Ole CY :)

I do like the idea of a holiday centred around food and family I must say.

I like the word umbrage too. And teacup. Both have a nice ring to them.

I would be interested in your plies story LeQ

I also keep hearing about a story with a lost car - is there a thread you can link to?

piles. not plies.

can't say I find other peoples piles very interesting

I've never had piles.
Nor lost a BMW.
