Is there someone on here called 'veal' who posts on the Guardian talkboard?

If so, do re'veal' yourself

I have just seen what you have said about me over there, and you totally misrepresent what I say!

I don't think that people who don't express 8 times in 24 hours are 'lazy'.

I have never talked about the 'virgin gut' in my life.

I don't think women who give formula have 'risked their baby's life'.

I actually think the idea of nipple confusion is wildly exagerrated and do not think women who use bottles 'give their babies permanent nipple confusion'.

Where am I ever 'stern' with mothers?

I am not a bit bothered about how much Clare Byam Cook is supposed to 'hate' me though Though maybe she doesn't 'hate' me - if 'veal' reports what I am supposed to think so unreliably, then maybe she's got this wrong, too.

So, veal, where on earth have you got all these crazy ideas from???

I am so cross, and yet it's only the freakin interweb and what does it matter blah blah blah.

But somehow it does

I don't post on these threads , not having babies, but bloody hell tiktok, they are being a bit harsh on you are they not?
Any advice you have given (not to me,.as I said I don't have babies) to others has been IMO great. Can you complain?

Wisteria · 14/09/2007 18:43

tik tok - that must have been a shock to read! What a load of bolleaux, don't think you've ever been stern.....

saltire · 14/09/2007 18:44

Beat me to it LL, I meant to put that same question in my post.

TellusMater · 14/09/2007 18:44

Noooooo - not me!

tiktok · 14/09/2007 18:44

Thanks, saltire, I won't complain!! I post under a psuedonym (obv) and I am hardly being slandered, but I want 'veal' to show up so I can tell her to f* off

southeatsastras · 14/09/2007 18:48

fishie · 14/09/2007 18:48

tiktok · 14/09/2007 18:49

I think it's only the second thread I have ever started on here, kiskidee!

You'd think I went round beating mothers over the head with breastpumps.....

No matter.

Off to have a lurrrrvley pizza and some lurrrrvley wine with my lurrrrrvley family, who will not hear any of this (dh thinks I am mad anyway, and if I tell him, he will think I am even madder to be bothered about it Bless him!)

OMG how RUDE is that!!! Bit speechless really .

saltire · 14/09/2007 18:52

I hope it doesn't spoil your evening.

kiskidee · 14/09/2007 18:57

So CBC is writing a new book. it seems like 'veal' has a close direct line to the lady. Well at least this time she is writing a book about something she knows better.

Jacanne · 14/09/2007 19:01

I wonder if Veal was the anonymous MNetter who posted that pleasant attack on BFers this morning?

I don't blame you for being upset, I would be too.

kiskidee · 14/09/2007 19:03

what did i miss, jacanne? [nosy]

potoroo · 14/09/2007 19:05

kiskidee · 14/09/2007 19:06
