Did we establish who the so called bullies/trouble makers are?

All the best GA

I have to agree with Webster, this meet has been planned for ages dont let anyone spoil it...I seriously doubt anyone will turn up to cause trouble it's just a lot of cyber hot air lol, dont be put off by the cyber bullies they aren't so brave in real life. Have a wonderful day if I was nearer I would be going myself..

I dont know what has happened to cause this distress but can i just say

in my experience those bullies and big mouths on the boards i have met, in real life at meets are either very quite, very nice really or very insignificant

what people say on here from the safety of their own homes is very very different to they way they behave in real life....most havnt got the balls (pardon the expression)

by canceling your meet you are giving them the impression (wrongly) that they have power when infact they do not

anyone (in my opinion) who gets joy from bullying others, doing nasty things behind others backs, manipulating people and situations to the disadvantage of others ...i could go on but i wont.... are very very sad, probably lonely, with no real friends and in some case in need of either psycological help or a damn good night out with real people.

i dont want to turn you thread into a row...so if what i have said does cause offense i will delete but i feel so strongly that you shouldn't let the weazels win....stand united all of those hoping to attend and show me one trouble maker that would confront you all in a public place and try to cause trouble

have a drink for me at your meet...if i was closer i would come myself. Fancy a trip to Liverpool i hear there is gonna be a Gustav Klimpt exhibition....would love to see that.

Lol Mac - a rolled up newspaper would probably do!!!

Go ahead with the meet!

I don't know the circumstances of the cancellation (ie threat or otherwise), but people who are bullies or troublemakers wouldn't show their faces anyway.

They would be too scared that they would be "the talk of the boards" later on, and other members would then "have their number"

Last time I was in Liverpool we had a meet with just the four of us, Lemon, Dan, my daughter and myself.
We had a great time!

Don't be intimidated and go for it.

I can't believe what I have read here. seriously? A meet has been cancelled because of a threat by people of turning up. These are adults we are talking about I assume? I would have ignored it and called their bluff.

lol Eldrick , thank you for a morning laugh at that...all joking aside, I think you have a real writing talent.....if you don't struggle to write (and I suspect you don't) you should have a go
at it seriously (if you wanted to that is),
lol I have read far worse by 'respected' authors.

I have to put it on record though, just in case anyone wonders, I have never worn a twin set and pearls ....or indeed a shell suit lol!

Eldrick Report 29 May 2008 10:37

lol...no, purely an amateur in the fiction stakes.

I have a vision......its a dusty liverpool street....two people walking towards each other....music from an old music box playing in a minor key....faces at windows and curtains twitching....all of a sudden the twin set and pearls goes for the handbag and the shell suit for the tracky pocket....

Scrumpled up marriage and birth certificates cross each other, glinting in the afternoon sun....both duelists fall writhing to the ground with severe paper cuts to the forehead - but twin set has the advantage - a rolled up peoples friend flies through the air and finds its target....
