Hi guys

What a kuffuffle out there ------->

I'm glad you enjoyed the Stiff Little Fingers Trinsk

A poetry evening sounds great itsy bitsy..I write the odd poem (very odd at times ) ..I;ve even had a few published over the years..in small publications

It's getting nearer to 'B' day..I cant wait to read all about it..it'll be nice to get the truth ..without all the tabloid spin

Funnily enough the kerrfuffle out there>>>>>>>>>>>> seems to have developed into a slanging match between Nikki and Ais fans , neother of whom like Pete and who throw the odd insult his way , but who tbh seem happier laying in to each other! I always liked Ais ,seems she's stayed friends with Pete , and even if most of her fans don't like him they are somewhat taking the heat off him LOL!!!

LOL Wanda.. it's a case of devide and conquer

I liked Ash too..she werent perfect, but who is ? and she's always been very supportive of Pete..

Just got home from parents eveing and havent caught up yet is it that good out there.

whats happend this time I wonder.

I will remeber to shut the door on the way out

Hello everyone. Thought I might have been banned today. I got into a spot of bother last night!!

Oh dear Kie Kie...what have you been up to?

I'm glad you're still here though xx

Thanks rosemary. I dared to ask someone why they come on you know where if they aren't a fan.... and cause trouble. The problem being I asked on here!!

I usually try to keep out of it but I'm afraid I was really annoyed. Hey ho back to calm hopefully!!!

Whatever rocks their socks I suppose..I dont understand it myself.

i have been a member of several fan sites, even run a few over the years and it has always been a definate no no for fans of rival HM's to intrude.

A kind of unspoken rule

Times have changed I guess ..there isnt that kind of respect in society anymore..so I suppose its no shock that there isnt on the internet

I agree with you. I don't understand. As you say whatever rocks your socks.

Just finished reading the outside world. but its safe in here.

o.t just had some really good news. My hubbys step mother has been having treatment for breast cancer and my father in law just called to say that she has just been told she dosnt need to have her breast removed only radio therepy after her chemo has finished. :, when you get good news like this it really make the crap that everyone one comes out with out "there" seem just that CRAP.

sorry in a thinking mood now

Hi everyone,

Nice to see you in here Haynat1 It's a great place to chill out. Normally we're so laid back we're virtually horizontal

Great to hear that you've had some good news about your hubby's stepmother, micky1. Puts everything else in context doesn't it?

So you're a poet then, rosemary? Well done on having some poems published. I know how hard it is in the poetry field. I've had one commended in a competition but I tend to write more prose. I find it a great form of escapism like coming on here

Micky thats wonderful news about your step mother~in~law what kind of thing does put everything into perspective about what is important in live. Yes its lovely in here a crap free zone .

Hi everyone

I see the star are writing brilliant stories about pete again .... What a loada codswallup (my new word )

bye

Hi dummy thats a great word codswallup.

Aww, I'm pleased to hear about your hubbys step mum..she must be relieved ..it certainly makes you realise how petty all this Pete and Nikki nonsense is..

I am so disappointed that the press havent printed any of the positive stuff Pete's done since BB like meeting the kids with TS and going to the AGM ..plus other stuff that is not made public.

I thought you all might like to see this http://www.tsa.org.uk/ (click on latest news to get the story)

This is what the press should be printing..not the tired old Nikki/Pete crap...

By the way..Pete has confirmed that he didnt say any of those things written in the star

Night Petey fans..sleep well xxx

Thanks for posting that Rosemary. But if Pete has confirmed he hasn't said such stuff, maybe it isn't right that it is talked about on the other threads then? As surely stuff is being debated that has been stressed as untrue by Pete himself by the looks of it.

Night all xxx

Hey micky! Way to go! It certainly puts things into perspective! Fantastic news! You must be so relieved and happy
I really feel for you.. I know how that wait can feel
BUT! Great news my friend! i'm so pleased for you. It's amazing what crap some of us are going through here and still so nice that we find a welcome and a place to vent here.. Pete fans to begin, Pete fans now, but... I feel we're all becoming friends because of him, which is another bonus!!
I've not felt much like chatting of late because of stuff, but the welcome and friendliness of our thread has been lovely!!
Take care micky x

You are most welcome! As other Pete peeps here have said!! Also Hi to our (hopefully lurking) absent friends... you naughty rascals! You know who you are!

Re: Pete and his positive works.
I do not know of another hm who has actually raised the profile of such a cause as Pete. Since leaving the house (and indeed, whilst in it) he raised the profile of one of the more anti-social disorders to inflict a person.
It is bad enough to be in school, suffering various indignities - ie ginger hair, too fat, glasses... which still become the target of the more perfect amongst us ..
But, being a child nowadyas is akin to being a teenager 10 years ago. Times have changed - kids are so much more image conscious (I do a whole Drama module in school for 10-11 year olds which is all about self image, as kids really are under a lot of pressure from that young an age).
Hell, I was a massive tomboy, I was still climbing trees and standing in goal at 15/16. Kids nowadays really understand and bow to peer pressure.
For a kid who has any difficulties assimilating whatsoever, school can be the cruelest place. When someone in the public eye has the same problems as you AND still overcomes them, then, it helps you to realise that you are not alone. Pete has done that for the thousands of tourettes sufferers in the UK - and not just kids, but, it is the kids that his media exposure will affect - not just those who suffer the disorder, but those who do not, as they will now understand it.
I've taught kids who have ticks, kids who twitch/ticks, kids who swear, or swear tick/twitch and I know that the ones I still see have said 'Oh my god! It's so normal, even Pete off BB has it... I thought it was only us!!' - no, Gazza has tourettes and other famous people include Jim Eisenreich, professional baseball player, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) - Mozart!! How cool is that! and Dan Ackroyd, to name a few.
I really feel as a teacher of kids with SEN or 'Additional Educational Needs' as it is now PC named, that Pete's exposure has been such a brilliant, inspiring thing. I'm so upset that the good work he has done has been overshadowed by the bile. Luckily, this is only evident on forums - in 'the real world' most people do not do forums and only access the positive... It annoys me no end that papers like The Star still strive to sensationalise the most innocuous comments by giving them headline kudos. Still, I think, in time, that will all but disappear and allow us to enjoy the positive aspects of Pete.
Ever the optomist!! X

Lovely post.
Micky that is great news

OOh Kie=Kie glad you still here. Haven't looked out there since yesterday afternoon but sounds lively lol

That must have been a lively night Trinsk
