Boiling a frog

Ah Bless the dear was just trying to be helpfull, no need for that tone. [kiss]

Mine didn't

Tony, Judith is quite right If you are receiving health care via a E106 then it is the UK who issues the EHIC not France. That has been the case for several years (at least since 2002 when I applied).

I know I am stating the obvious but ,ask your assurance, they are the ones to tell you, every assurance coy have different terms

You need to sort this out with the notaire. It is common in France for an access road such as you describe to be owned jointly ie by everyone, If this is the case then everyone has equal use of it . If on the other hand you own the road then possibly the others have a right of way over it.

Yes because I will never flounce off ,I will only stop posting when I die. [:P][:D]

[quote user="TWINKLE"][quote user="Boiling a frog"] Odile seems to have got under many peoples skin ,a troublemaker perhaps, a lovely person perhaps, can we not just give it a rest     [/quote] Apparently not. Maybe one day someone will make a thread in YOUR honour[:)] [/quote]   Perhaps but it will be an in memorandum

[quote user="Christine Animal"] Boiling a Frog, can't you get the message?   Please don't answer!   Frenchie non plus.  Please, laisse tomber, c'est pas la peine.     [/quote]   Have I answered [8-)] Why bring it up again Christine ,it is you who is raising this subject this time [:'(]

[quote user="Cat"] I suspect that all (well most) of what has been posted on this thread (and others in the same vein) is well intentioned. Please let's not forget though that even though Odlie is no longer posting here, she may well be following these threads.  Being unable to respond makes it all rather unfair, both on Odile and on the moderators.  We do step in when people are submitted to unrelenting bullying.  I myself have helped some of the people contributing to this thread (and the others) in the past with such matters, and I know that the other mods have done the same. Whatever people's perceptions of this particular situation, I think it is only fair that we take the advice offered by JayJay, and let this one rest now.  Odile's friends wouldn't want to see her offended any more than she already is, and those not counting themselves in that number should perhaps think twice before contributing to prolonging the drama. [/quote]   And perhaps Odiles friends should consider what they are posting so as not to prolonge the drama.

Aye sure [;-)] You would say that   And you know for certain that she panicked etcetc ,did she phone you, or were you one of the guests at her house that night[:D]   I have a different theory

[quote user="Frenchie"][quote user="Weedon"] [quote user="buelligan"]For what it's worth, I feel quite strongly that the posting should have been deleted immediately.  I read it all and was sickened by the pleasure that some posters appeared to gain from upsetting and bullying other members.  It was absolutely clear that the person in question believed that her details had been revealed and that, to me, is the salient fact. [:D][/quote] Which is why I posted a story about bullying in the hope that it would bring a halt to what I thought was becoming a sort of feeding frenzy against a person whose main fault was not knowing when to stop. In my naivety I did think her details had been revealed. [/quote] Sorry to bring it back to the top of the page , but yes, she really thought her details were being shown + the " We know where you are "  made her lose control and panic. What seems wrong to me is that some  people  take a sadistic pleasure in upsetting others, and push them beyond their limits. To me, there was bullying.   [/quote]   How do you know that she really thought her details were being shown etc. ? No one really  knows what is going thro another persons mind, especially when the person concerend could be sitting several hundred miles away in front of an inanimate object, typing something onto a machine, not even speaking to anyone and very possibly not even known personally to the other participants

Got 14 right. Looks like I do not qualify [:'(]

[quote user="Weedon"] I am not surprised, sometimes when I read them back I wonder what I was on about. You have said many times that it is not possible for anybody to obtain our details and you clearly believe this, it may be that I am just a silly old duffer but it wouldn't surprise me to learn that it is possible to do so. Here I am afraid I must lapse into my normal mode.  If what you say is true why do up to 20 people a day write to tell me that my wossname is too small and would benefit from some kind of supplement, I thought that only I knew that?  [/quote]   I think what Clair said was that in this instance Odiles personal details were not revealed to anyone except herself, which is a bit different from what you are saying. I have no doubt that you can be traced, after all you have signed up to an internet provider who had your details. That is how people can track you down

On another French Forum there are a couple of posters who reveal the most intimate and amazing details, not only about themselves but also about family members, ranging from daughters medical problems to their sisters racist views. One could practically write a book about their life from the details revealed. However what was bizarre was that someone had the temerity to bring up a couple of facts about the person, posted by them the day before, and all hell broke loose, with people accusing the other person  of prying into their life, and revealing personal details. I could  not understand where they were coming from ,after all if you do not want people to know personal information do not write it on the internet for all to see. [8-)]

I think the whole point is this. Yes Odile saw a post which puported to show her ISP number and location and with the words ""We know where you are"" She allegedly saw this as a threat and complained . Shortly thereafter ,and perhaps a MOD who has access to the thread can confirm exact timings,she was told that this was a joke, that only she could see her details. I personally up to that point was rather confused because when I saw the post it showed my ISP address etc so I wondered why Odile was getting upset at a post  showing my ISP address. However after the explaination giver by Jayjay, I believe, I realised that it was a joke. However Odile continued to complain, even the following day when it had been explained to her and everyone else what the true situation was. We could continue with this debate about the rights and wrongs of the situation ad infinitum but with the thread being removed I think it should be dropped because we are not going to get anywhere.

I have just noticed that this thread died a natural death way back on 24th June until a sudden revival by a certain person yesterday.[:)]

[quote user="Dog"] Odile may be naive but was subjected to some pretty nasty bullying. She cannot be let go as she has too much to offer.   [/quote]   In my opinion it was Odile who was trying to bully other posters into submission, in particular the Moderators, by continually making the same point, and demanding that something be done. Fortunatly ,the Moderators stood up to her, and she did not like not getting her own way therefore she left. 

I thought you had left, but it seems you have not. Welcome back, we have missed you

If a forum member upsets someone so much that they feel they have to leave then that is justice[:D]

[quote user="Quillan"][quote user="Boiling a frog"][quote user="sweet 17"] [quote user="Boiling a frog"]It is not a casual link, the British are well known for their sense of humour, just as the Germans are for placing towels on sunbeds in the middle of the night to reserve them . THey are called National traits [:D][/quote] I didn't say "casual link" but CAUSAL link as in "cause and effect."........ God, what is it with these Brits![:D][:P]  You've got to teach them their own language as well as everything else.........LOL! Perhaps you could now explain to us all about national traits; traits being a word of French and prior to that of Latin origin, of course.  Hardly anglo-saxon, as I'm sure you already realise. [/quote] Who said I was British,certainly not me.[:D] [/quote] Would it be fair to say from a comment you made in the now deleted thread that you are infact Scottish? If so we know where you live [:P] ........... Scotland [;-)] [/quote]   It would be fair to say that I worked for a number of years in Scotland.[kiss]   As for knowing where I live, I think there is a massive clue in my profile at the side of the posts [:D]

Odile has asked for this special composition on the subject of her departure.   http://www.yamelo.com/clip/peter-cook-amp-dudley-moore/14647_peter-cook-amp-dudley-moore-goodbye-ee.html   I will miss you.[:D]
