Thanks John, Mike, Sue, Dave, Shirley, Gonul, Edward, Peggy and to anybody else that I have missed, who has shown their support for me (and POE) in what is effectively known as the 'Cyber Bullying'...'Cyber Abuse' rather fits the bill!

The difference is as I said before, I won't be topping myself as a result. Sadly there are people about, mainly the younger generation who are affected by such rubbish and who do take their own life as a result of the abuse. That's what was aimed at me, nothing short of abuse!

You may wonder why there has been no comment from C&S. Answer; they don't know anything about it and are away with the two younger boys for a few days break, they will be back tomorrow, not that I expect them to comment anyway.

Note the writer of the email to me last night hasn't shown her head above the parapets yet!

Ron, I suspect the writer of the email won't be showing her head above the parapets any time soon. What bugs me is why people think it's right to abuse people over the internet that they hardly know. Would they do it to their face, no I don't think so - cowards and fools that's what they are.

And as for FB - I wouldn't go anywhere near it, I know of at least two murders that have been commited in this area because of comments and information put on FB by the stupid and foolhardy. That doesn't include the fall outs, the family feuds, the assaults, etc etc I could go on.

I couldn't find my regular mop emoticon (no real use for it, as POE has maybe one post I year I need to clean up), so I googled this one.  

I also use a web site called Smileys Repository

Okay members well here is the response that I received today from the 'other' person to write to me via email in support of CathyE.

Note that she comments about no longer being a member. I don't have access to the POE database and so it would have meant trawling through thousands of names to see if she was in fact still a member, hence I put 'apparently' in my email above.

She also states "you blocked me in favour of Jason Twist and his  pictures". If Jason is looking in maybe he can shed some light on it?

I can honestly say I know nothing about this whatsoever and doubt that she has been blocked, but I will have to wait to ask C&S if anything has happened to she who shall be named shortly. You WILL be told the truth members make no mistake.

She calls me a 'braggart and a bully' and says " you should know me better than that". Well I haven't got a clue who she is and if I have responded to her in the POE forum then it's because it was required at the time, but I don't know her, neither do I want to.

She writes "I believe she (meaning CathyE) is in a bad way in her life and very low, thank you for kicking her when she was down".

To that I say, it serves her right and had she not posted the abuse on fb aimed at me and then blocked me, none of this would have happened. She has brought this on herself, so don't come your old sob story to me Susan Ryder telling me she is ill! That said, I would go further and say she is sick and needs help.

And so yes, Susan Ryder is the name of the writer of the second email that is also directing abuse my way.

Following is a copy of her email to me and you will see that she has challenged me to post it. Well here it is...

I have lost my inernet at home and have come to the library. You know very well that i cannot comment in the Forum as i am no longer a member, you blocked me in favour of Jason Twist and his pics. I can ssure you had i still been a member my post would have been in there instead of in an email to you. you are such a braggart and bully, adn no matter how many sheep baaa in the forum and follow you about, nothing will change that. I don'texpect you to actually tell the truth to the members that the reason i can't comment is that i am not a member anymore, i was never cowardly  and always stood up for what i believe in and this is no exception.  Afraid of puttingmy head above the parapet? Me? you should know better.
We,, Cathy's friends have all contacted her with our support but as yet have heard nothing. I believe she is in a bad way in her life now, and very low. thank you for kicking her when she was down. And by all means name me in the forum if it makes you feel better. I don't mind at all.

So there it is dear friends, two ladies getting very annoyed over what? We have one who is apparently very ill now, and another who is supporting her blindly.

If CathyE wants to bring this to a conclusion let her know that I will accept an apology from her. If not, I can carry on for as long as it takes.

Don't know what on earth you've done to bring this about Ron, it all seems way way over the top. Wonder if they are aiming all this at totally the wrong person ?

I've done nothing Ruth. That is nothing that any one of the members wouldn't do under the same circumstances.

I am not prepared to accept the abuse from CathyE or anybody else for that matter who fires abuse at me and then hides behind a blocked account, and as I say above she has brought this on herself. No good her now looking for sympathy, unless she does the right thing.

She should be thinking herself lucky that I am prepared to bring this to a conclusion if she comes to the POE forum and makes a public apology, but that is about as likely as me finding hens teeth!
