Just Katie Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I must agree with Benjamin here, it seems that one person after the other is coming in with the swipe. Please stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tresco Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 [quote user="Just Katie"]Please stop.[/quote]So Jon can carry on regardless and everyone else adjusts their behaviour? It's been quite light hearted but these accusations of bullying are too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YCCMB Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 [quote user="clairely"]i feel sad you all seem to get pleasure from hounding someone off the forum here![/quote] And I feel sad, too. Sad that apparently, yet again, it's considered that only one party in this discussion has "feelings". Why should it be that the people who disagree with Jon should be criticised, vilified and accused of some plot to "hound someone off the forum"? I can't see where anyone in this discussion has said that jon has no right to her views, or indeed anywhere where anyone has criticised anything except the continued references to people who happen to disagree being in some way deficient or having a hidden agenda. As this is an open forum, and the majority of thise who do disagree with jon's insistence on "France good, UK bad" have no links to one another, can't anyone just accept that there are a reasonable number of people who feel strongly enough to put an alternative point of view?

Russethouse Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 [quote user="clairely"]i feel sad you all seem to get pleasure from hounding someone off the forum here![/quote]Nobody is being hounded, but if people come here with strong views and are not afraid to promote them then they must expect that other forum members will also put their own views in equally strong terms. It doesn't make sense to then complain about being bullied.I also think that she has fallen into an easy trap of perhaps not realizing just how her posts read, it's hard to communicate tone.Remember the old adage 'If you don't like the heat.............'

raindog Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 [quote user="clairely"]i feel sad you all seem to get pleasure from hounding someone off the forum here![/quote]Jon started this thread as a sort of log of her arrival in France, which in itself is fine, but in her first offering managed to mention that she had been bullied on the forum, when she clearly has not, and also wrote about a mugging in Reading, as if that alone justifies moving to France and mugging doesn't exist here.Surely you can see how irritating that can be?

Cendrillon Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I sincerely hope that Jon (always thought she was a "he" but never mind!) is now devoting her time to adapting to her new life / getting her business in France off the ground, learning French and integrating with the local community.[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raindog Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Blimey, another Dylan fan.....A book coming out soon by Suze Rotolo about her time with him. Can't believe it, because all this time she kept her mouth shut, even to journalists. Now it looks like cash-in time. "Washington, Feb 11 : Veteran singer Bob Dylan's ex-girlfriend SuzeRotolo has branded himas being vain and a liar, revealing that she hadillegally aborted the "Blowin' in the Wind" star's baby in the 1960s.Rotolo, who had appeared on the cover of Dylan's album TheFreewheelin' Bob Dylan, has detailed her allegations in herautobiography 'A Freewheelin' Time', which is due for release in May "Much time was spent in front of the mirror trying on one wrinkledarticle of clothing after another, until it all came together to lookas if Bob had just gotten up and thrown something on. Image was all,"Contactmusic quoted Rotolo, as stating in the book.In the book, Rotolo also revealed Dylan's habit of telling liesabout his childhood, including "the sad story he told of beingabandoned at a young age in New Mexico and then going to live with atravelling circus"."He had an uncanny ability to complicate the obvious and sanctifythe banal - just like a poet. Bob was charismatic; he was a beacon, alighthouse. He was also a black hole," she added.She further claimed that the two eventually separated, because shecould not cope with the "pressure, gossip, truth and lies that living withBob entailed".
