Edinburgh anyone???

Just wondering if anyone wants to meet up in Edinburgh for lunch and maybe a group shopping trip like last time. It was a small but fun group and I think everyone had fun soo just wondering if anyone would be interested again?? 

My days are pretty much already planned for me but if I list the days I can go would that be ok??
I did enjoy the last time we had lunch and shopped. like the Monday after this next one  (the 27th I am off and then I think again on Wed... that would be good for me...

Monday the 27th sounds good to me. :) Where would you like to meet at?

I am game.. the 27th sounds real good to me. Anyone else want to go to Edenburgh on the 27th to meet up with MistyLynn and me???  Lunch at the same place.. opps I for get the name... or Cracker Barrel sounds good...

Linda Kay

Cracker Barrel sounds good. Good deal! I'm excited.

Let us make that the plan then Cracker Barrel in front of the Mall at 11;30 or so??? I do want to go to Bon worth.. one of my favorite outfits was bought on sale there the last time I went and I need to stop and look for the grandkids atr the childrens place..

Is this an OPEN Invitation???? Or are you closing the invitation??? It was your idea so I need to know... May bring Melissa and the girls...

Linda Kay

Melissa and the girls are more than welcome. It is an open invite since it is a public place. It's a pretty big mall. 

Thanks for the invitation, but we won't be coming.  I have no intention to attend any future events planned by anyone on the Indiana board and I definitley wouldn't take my kids to any events after the way people have reacted to all this DRAMA.  I don't want my children to be exposed to the horrible attitudes and volitile tempers that some of the women on here are exhibiting.

(Sorry Misty, none of this is directed at you personally or at the event you are planning.  I've just decided to be done with this board as a whole).

By the way, I am not taking sides here.  I think both sides share the fault in this current drama.  If I were in Michelle's shoes, I personally wouldn't show up to a place where everyone there hates me because there couldn't possibly be any good come from it.  But I also cannot believe how nasty everyone on here has been.  Not just towards Michelle, but also towards anyone that has said anything that remotely resembles a disagreement in the way things have been handled regarding Michelle.

No one asked for my opinion in this, but I'm going to give it anyway.  OH is a PUBLIC forum and therefore all are WELCOME here....even lurkers who never register an account can read all the posts.  It is my understanding that there isn't any one person that has the authority to say who is or isn't welcome here and only OH has the ability ban someone.  Since Michelle still has the ability to post on all the forums, I can only assume that as far as OH is concerned she is still welcome here.  You don't have to like it, but there's little that can be done about it.  If you then host an event and post it on this PUBLIC forum and say that "all are welcome"...then you've got no control over who shows up.  Period.  It's not pretty, but that's the risk you take when you post on public forums.  Even sending out private invitations won't keep out people you don't want unless you personally know everyone you invite.  As someone said before, it isn't difficult for someone to create more than one account on here and start posting under a different alias to get access to all information and future event invites.

It's a shame that a few bad apples have completely ruined this board and all the good intentions that made this board such a nice place for support.

I am so sorry that I ruined things for you. I never intended on hurting you or anyone for that matter. Since this has been going on I wished that everyone would eventually forgive, me even though what I said was not meant for anyone on this board, but was taken wrong. But I guess it never will be the way it used to be and no one will forgive me. Since a good person like Melissa has been effected this way I will never go to any events either. You all have won and Melissa I am sorry to have put you in this position! I hope maybe someday you will go back to the clothing exchange where we had so much fun looking for pink clothes for you. The looking for clothes for you and some others was what I meant when I said "helping out" people that Shana commented on, in such a horrible way. I am tired of all of this "drama" also so therefore I will not be on here any longer. I will be removing my profile if I can soon as I have taken the pictures and music off of it. If any of you that have contacted me in the past would like to contact me again please email me. Again I am sorry about this Melissa and hope that I someday will get to talk to you again you have been most helpful! Michelle

Michelle, I never said that you personally ruined it for me.  This situation as a whole and the reactions to the situation is what ruined it for me.  There are things that all parties involved have done/said that I don't agree with, but I am not mad at anyone.  I am simply done with the drama.
