Is this title too rude?!!!

I appreciate everyone warning caution. Trust me, I'm using this place to rant and rave and swear and all that,... at the moment I haven't done anything. And even if I do manage to locate him (with some first class help!) I might not necessarily do anything with that information just yet. But I would just like to know, that's all, instead of driving round looking for his car all the time,.... Just this knowledge will make me feel a bit more empowered.

All advice on here is very helpful - the calm, the practical, the hysterical, the funny, the 'been there done that', it's all amazing and I value all of it. Smile

If you have found out where he is, can I be first in line for sending pizza round?

Joking portifino before you kick off...it mean Chinese of course Wink

DozyDuck · 20/08/2012 20:40

Oh portofino I wouldn't do it, buy Babylon wanted to help and did. She is braver than you (and me)

Nothing happened and it's not doing op any good to have you be horrible.

You made your point before she went. Your conscience is clear. Move on

Portofino · 20/08/2012 20:41

I am not being horrible. This is not about Lou. This is MADNESS.

JustSpiro · 20/08/2012 20:42

Whatever it may be, it's done now, so there's is not much point in your continuing to rant about it Portofino.

RunYouBastardRun · 20/08/2012 20:43

Seriously? Seriously? People think it's a 'heroic' thing to follow someone who is being accused of being a psycho?

I'm glad you're back safely Babylon and I hope Lou gets the info she wants but bugger me, what a risk.

DozyDuck · 20/08/2012 20:44

Well it's done now. Move on.

madamemax · 20/08/2012 20:45

A wee bit of moral high ground may have been lost, agree with Portofino. In the grand scheme of things, though, this is very minor compared to his misdemeanours.

tuckingfits · 20/08/2012 20:45

Christ,is anyone else wishing they could hide portofino's "contributions"? She has been acknowledged a several times. Ok you wouldn't do it & you don't agree with it BUT someone else weighed up dangers as best they were able in the circumstances & chose to do it. It hasn't had dire consequences so please stop harping on about the same point over & over. It's done & dusted. Move.the.fuck.on Smile

LouP19 · 20/08/2012 20:45

BabylonPI has very kindly reported back and unfortunately the Chunt was not where he would usually be tonight. I'm very very grateful for her efforts and I've texted her as such - it is amazing what she offered to do for me. And with her husband as a sidekick too.

So thank you again Babylon, you have been amazing.

Disappointed, but given what's going on in his life at the moment his routine is probably out the window. He's probably still unpacking all the teaspoons! Grin

Portofino · 20/08/2012 20:45

God - at least someone agrees. I thought I fell into pom pom waving hell.

NoHank · 20/08/2012 20:46

Will come together for each other in times of need.

Would the nay-sayers just feck off already?
Babylon had her husband with her. They went for a ride on his motorbike. They didn't go ninja on chutneyfuck's ass (mores the pity!) so just RELAX.

And I have reported my posts to save you all the bother.

BabylonPI · 20/08/2012 20:50

There's a very fine line between bravery and stupidity. I did what I did because I want to help lou.

I'm not an idiot, nor do I feel all tingly and heroic. Lou did not ask me to do this, I offered.

DH joined me and actually for us it has been a pleasant ride out on the motorbike - something we haven't done together in 8 long years.

Yes I got a babysitter - surely that's preferable to me leaving them home alone??

Now Portofino do run along and worry about someone else - there is nothing for you to see here. which is my polite way of telling Portofino to fuck off and stop whinging Grin

cenicienta · 20/08/2012 20:51

Portifino the good people on here are just doing their best, at times using humour to help Lou get through a devastating situation.

When someone hurts us badly, it really does help when everyone rallies around chanting death threats and generally being a bit extreme about what they would like to do to that person. It really helps!

Lou is taking great comfort from this thread, not because she is going to mindlessly follow all the at times extreme advice, but because she feels people are on her side and going through this with her.

Lou strikes me as an intelligent woman, who probably will always err on the side of caution anyway in terms of following the rules. I don't think there is any chance she's going to be led astray by this thread.

I think it is very likely though, that she will read some of the extreme / outrageous posts and laugh, which is probably just what she needs to do when the rest of her world is crumbling around her.

I'm sorry you can't share that.

LouP19 · 20/08/2012 20:51

If anyone ever thought I was going to do something stupid with this information, don't you think I would already have marched across the car park and into the building where he works and done it already?!!! He works 300 yards from me. Trust ME and MY integrity. Don't judge unless you have been there. Thank you.

Babylon - you got a babysitter and dragged your husband into stalking a stranger's dh - and I am the one with the problem?

Portofino, seriously, HOW much danger were they in really? Babylon was with her DH, who's a policeman and has experience of tagging people. She really couldn't have been in safer hands! Chill out lady!

You should march across the carpark and put a potato in his exhaust!

Portofino · 20/08/2012 20:54

Lou, but you potentially put another Mnetter at risk. Why cannot you march across the carpark?
