Maybe you've come far enough, but that doesn't mean everybody has, and it's not, in my opinion, a very welcoming type of post to people who have expressed that it's hard to settle somewhere else. |

Sally in fairness it was a bit of banter. Nothing nasty was intended. I think you can trust most adults to self regulate.
To the couple we were pulling your leg and I'm not to far from you if you need advise pm me |

Glad for the thick skin I'll tell you privately if you don't mind. I don't give personal details here. Just give people time once the locals see you as can genuine nice couple things will settle. Get involved gradually with your community |

Glad to hear it, you're going to need it. I don't usually get offended on other people's behalf, I just thought the comments were unnecessary. I'll shut up now |

"Lighten up folks
We are not offended by any of the comments here . I can see both sides of above conversation but hey it’s a swinger site ..lol
Make love not war
Maria "
Thanks Maria... i only mean to have a laugh and a light hearted banter... we are all grown up here after all (some would argue this fact occasionally) It actually proves my point from my first reply... it very much depends on the people you guys are dealing with. Its not always you thats making errors... it can be how things are perceved or taken out of context or even just your unfortunate to meet someone on an off day and you get the sharp end of their ignorance! Hope you guys have lots of good memories not just on here but in you new area |

I don't find it offensive, I just find the 'banter' insufferably annoying. Instant hijacking of a thread |

Well the forums are minefield so its easy to feel like putting a foot wrong. Mostly a few groups or 'clicks' who band together frim thread to thread. Just be yourself... but be prepared to be ignored or put down at their discretion. |

Welcome and yes it can be volatile here . Things can kick off over very little. All bloodsports are fully legal here. There's no shortage of passive aggression either. That said, the craic can be good at times if you can hold your own. Some good conversations and whole lot of shite to go with it. |

Would you mind me asking if the cliques and groups as you put it, are any worse or less, in your experience, across the pond? |

The smaller the pond the more aggressive the fish ....England is a large pond so fish can move to another shoal as often as they like . There is not that luxury here I feel . Fall out of favour and pickings are poor . We will cherry pick and see how we get on . We will return home 5 or 6 times per year and will prob seek out old friends when there if we don’t find the fun here |

I'm not so sure about that, I take your analogy, I'm sure we will get the opportunity to converse more about the topic. And welcome by the way |

Hello biguy and maybe we will take part in the odd debate here
I enjoy an intelligent conversation .
To add another item to the above... as this is a smaller area and less fabbers hygiene and discretion must be paramount . |
