I think of that movie "You've Got Mail" where the female character wishes she could come out with some ZINGERS when people say ridiculous things to her...but they never come at the time...<BR/>Perhaps she could have added "I'm so sorry" to the "Oh dear" & it would have been an entirely different Blog...<BR/>I wish I had the EYE ROLLING EMOTICON for these moments!!Lissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16003757202305679509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800369710941714852.post-42538993998507569022008-08-31T16:09:00.000+10:002008-08-31T16:09:00.000+10:00Oh Karin.. :( Honestly, how can people be so bitte...Oh Karin.. :( Honestly, how can people be so bitter and cruel?
