I would like this to be the final words on this matter, but feel that I must write.
I think the London Meet-up was wonderful, I met so many people all of which I liked and admire for various reasons. Everyone that I met was very kind and considerate of me and I am now feeling very guilty for turning a misunderstanding from a molehill into a mountain. Although for those of us concerned it was very confusing as to what was what. I do not intend to try to work out anything more than the Hotel made a 'balls-up' and there was a massive lack of communication.
Sharklet, I did CAT you, but I still do not have an email address for you. If you would like to you can email me at bungliepig(at)yahoo(dot)com. I will apologise to you personally then. I do not blame you if you decide not to contact me as my behaviour was way out of proportion and I do not blame you at all for thinking what you did. I am sure in your position I would have felt the same, and probably reacted in the same way. I am sorry that such a pleasant evening was spoiled for you and you had the additional worry of your dd being poorly. I hope she is better now.
I hope you believe me when I tell you that I had no intention of calling you a 'bitch' but I can see that in your position that it would appear like that, I am so very sorry.
Everyone who met you seems to think that you were lovely, fantastic and very nice. I am certain that had we have met then I would have agreed with all of the lovely things that were written about you. I just hope that you can forgive me, my over-reaction and that you will email me so that I can apologise to you personally.
Crunchie, it was the first time that we met, and I thought that you too were lovely. You went out of your way, booked our hotel rooms and I did not even have the courtesy to thank you. So thank you and I think you did a great job and were a lovely person too.
As for the hotel, well I think as others have said it was probably their fault and it was a total lack of communication between us all. I am sorry that you did not stay, but I am not going to take this matter any further. I was happy to pay the bill on Sunday morning and I am still happy with that decission. I paid a reasonable price for what I got and I guess that I am just sorry that we were unable to meet in person Sharklet.
This has all been horrible for the 3 of us concerned and my behaviour yesterday was inexcusable. I am not going to flounce. I love mumsnet and I certainly loved all of the mumsnetters that I have met.
I wish that I could send this to you privately but I feel that I owe you a public apology as well.
May I ask that no one continues any more with this 'misunderstanding' and would someone please bump this for me or point Sharklet towards it so that I know she has seen it.
I hate myself for over-reacting and I really do understand why Sharklet felt the way that she did. Can we please now draw a line under it all and hopefully continue to keep those memories of the wonderful Mumsnetters that we did meet and I hope that you feel able to email me as I will explain anything that you would still like to know as well as apologise to you personally.
With love,
Bunglie XX
