    Oh dear and you a moderator.

    I posted because I thought some might be interested, a lot of women with children like that programme.

    There's a lot of programmes flagged up on here, I wouldn't feel the need to denigrate someone else's choice, even in jest.

      We don't have Moderators on GC, and while some members might be interested, not all are.

      Nobody has denigrated, belittled, or put down anyone, Doghouse.......Humour is not a one way street

        The neighbour's kid will be on again in about an hour. Guess I'll water some more of the greenhouse plants and water myself with a spritzer whilst waiting ;)

          Don't get carried away. I said denigrated, nothing else.

          Which your comment was and totally unnecessary, programmes you wouldn't want to watch are your own business and of no interest to me. So why quote my post?

              It'd be a bad day if I can't break 100. I wouldn't today, because I didn't play. I've not played that well this year though, best score was a gross 81, but only off the "tees of the day," not the competition ones and did include a hole in one.

                That's simple as, again, posts are not a one way street and you posted

                As I pointed out there are no Moderators and Admin are allowed to post as ordinary members and your quote to me was a "put down".

                And you suggested that I denigrated your post, while in fact was I did was to place humour into the thread which, unfortunately, I do quite often.

                  Excuses

                  It was an unnecessary remark.

                  Smilies make all the difference don't they?

                  Enough said.

                    Erected an arch over my 'new' (made by me) front garden gate.

                    I decided that it would be a good idea to hold two pieces of wood together, whilst drilling a pilot hole. I changed my mind almost immediately just after I drilled into my finger.

                    It's been a funny old day :spinning:

                        Thanks for asking :dbgrtmb: - it's recovering - I pulled away just as the drill started to bite. It's the same a stubbing your toe - no one to blame except for yourself.

                        I had to use all my man strength not to cry out like a big baby - as a neighbour was driving past :spinning: at the time :doh:.
