OK, rough translation.
"No lass, stay as you are here, it is not time for you to finish (leave) as you have said nothing that should put peoples noses out of joint.  Give yourself a few days to settle then come back (to the forum).
There are a lot of people here who value you more than you might suspect.
Your photos and writing about your cattle are what has made me determined to get Shetlands and I reckon that there are others that would say the same.
I will be voting with you so don't feel that you are a lone voice out there.

I avoid the 'Coffee Lounge' on this (and any other forums) for this very reason. :)

This forum is about smallholding, is it really a place where people should be venting their day-to-day troubles?


(And yes some folk do need to learn how to write properly!  A bit of proper spellin', punctuation and grammar never hurt anyone, but it makes things so much easier to read for the rest of us!! (regardless of the language) :))

I'd like to point out we can't moderate posts written in foreign languages, please use proper english at all times... ;D ;D ;D

Bloomer, you do realise that if there's a Yes vote in September you'll have to learn to speak like that too, don't you?  ;)

Rosemary you utter Jessie ;)!!

I went to the other thread expecting a catalogue of insult on insult, blood stained keyboards and shattered mouses..... all in the cause of pointing out that someone on the internet is WRONG!

That is the MILDEST thread eva!  If THAT is a drama around here, you need to spike up your cocoa.

Now, put the drama queen outfit away, get Dan's tea on and stop those people advertising kitchens... there's a good wee lass  :roflanim: :roflanim: :roflanim: :roflanim: :roflanim:

SO funny!!!  :roflanim:

OK, I threw my toys out the pram after some gypsy bashing ages ago (it did happen around the time my children were being physically abused at school for being 'pikies' - even though they are actually diddydiddycoys but i digress....)
FWIW, I didn't see YOUR comment as being an issue Rosemary. I know you via Fb and have been a member on here since 2009 (even though i left so lost my aged status levels lol) - you say it as you see it, you have a sharp sense of humour but you also have a heart of gold. so NO, you aren't leaving. You are staying put  :huff:

Well i reckon you should be hung , drawn and quartered , and the bits taken to the four corners of the country !
You should behave with decorum , be well balanced in view and speak with kindness and fairness  , just as i always do !
Not really mate , nationality can cause even the mildest mannered peeps to go wobbly . The EU is my thing , not europeans , but the eu , very different things . I hate the eu and all it stands for , so i can understand the desire for  independence .
 I don't think you need go anywhere mate  , i thìnk Mel Gibsons accent in Braveheart was far more offensive than anything you have said  .

I guess so but we'll win it with pride  ;D I remember the days of David Sole and Big Gav... ( although Big Gav seems to be a bit of a dick but hey ho).

Not at all  :) I was a bit miffed at being called anti-English. As I said, I actually know you in real life and couldn't have said if you were English, Scottish or otherwise - but I did know that you had a Labrador, a GSD and a wee hairy dug that I wanted to bring home  ;D

Rosemary, I love you to pieces  :hug: :love: and that means loving your almost overwhelming desire for Independence for Scotland.  I'll tell you a secret though - I read such posts using the same filter most men use when their woman is on 'transmit' ;)  :roflanim: :roflanim:


(
Anyway, once we're independent, we'll sequester Northumberland and Cumbria  ;D (That's a joke, for the avoidance of doubt).
I listened to this bit, though.  I kinda like it... :D)


And, because I know you in real life as well as on here and FB, I know that you are the very last person to ever be or say anything anti-English  :-* :-*   Anti-English-government, heck yes!  But anti-English people, no, never.


And I also love that you have an acerbic wit and are very human;)


I had a cat once had a highly-developed sense of right.  If I went to reprimand him and it was his fault, he'd take it like a man.  If it wasn't his fault, he'd hold his paw up and refuse to accept the ticking off.  He would also put his paw up in front of the dog if I was about to tick the dog off, and it wasn't the dog's fault.


Dan  :wave:  - this is me putting my hand up in front of Rosie !  It wasnae her fault!  Actually I thought the whole thread did well - bound to be emotive and I thought we debated well and without insult or ill humour.   I was really surprised to see it locked.

Rosie, you can't possibly leave, that's bonkers.

But I'm actually glad you started this thread - it's been one of the most fun threads I've read in ages!   :roflanim:

Freedom of speech in this country use to be ok. Now we all have to watch our p's and q's. Stay Rosemary. I am Scottish with a son married and living in Wales, a brother in England and Aunts plus cousins so not one for knocking the country.

Don't you DARE bugger off  :rant: :rant:


You and Dan are the major facilitators for so many of us to take the plunge into the world of Smallholding because you are so INCLUSIVE to everyone.  :sunshine: :sunshine:


You can't control how other people react to what you may say/write, you can only have the knowledge that you are true to yourself so be content in that.


Oh and BTW I'm not English, or Scottish - I'm Celtic  :excited:

Is this another domestic?  :innocent:  :roflanim:  Don't let Dan bully you  - we love you and if HE doesn't I'll take him off your hands and MAKE him vote YES  - That'll teach him  :roflanim: :roflanim: :roflanim:
