Life is far too short for nastiness but I know it can be really hard to have a tough skin. My Mum and her Mum before always say, "If you can't say something nice don't say anything at all". It has got me by all these years and I just block or don't read anything unpleasant.

It allowed me to connect with lots of lovely like-minded crafters, and reconnect with friends with who I had lost touch. I am now very strict about what I allow to appear. I block and delete the things I don't want, leaving just what I do want. However, you are right to make your own choice about what you are comfortable with. Enjoy your crafting. xxx MaggieMaggieC (Silvercrafter)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13560733295194874288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-60978783883393111892017-06-08T06:46:24.716+01:002017-06-08T06:46:24.716+01:00I am sorry you had that experience at Bristol and ...I am sorry you had that experience at Bristol and good for you for your perfect reply. Sadly, I think there are just a tiny hard core group left that actually feel threatened by the large numbers of new recruits to the craft and would resist any change, much like the Luddites destroying new machinery. Meanwhile, we, the cheating parchers, will continue on our merry way, learning as many of the traditional skills to add to our craft. xxx MaggieMaggieC (Silvercrafter)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13560733295194874288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-84334682649734000522017-06-08T06:32:39.540+01:002017-06-08T06:32:39.540+01:00Karen, I can understand you leaving FB.

That has largely reduced my posts to manageable proportions and mainly from friends I want to keep in touch with. That blocking button is a real friend. Hope you soon find the courage to post some of your work. xxx MaggieMaggieC (Silvercrafter)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13560733295194874288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-59548354696439727722017-06-08T06:11:37.860+01:002017-06-08T06:11:37.860+01:00Hello Barb, very well said.

Big thanks too to Dave and the rest of your family for letting you share so much of yourself with us! I love sitting on theClarity bench - even if a very occasional splinter is a right pain in the a*se! Sending all of you, especially you and Grace so far away, a flood of love to surround and shelter you and a deluge of positive thoughts for a good outcome.

So posts like this just make me feel rather smug in that clearly not missing much by not doing Facebook or Twitter. Loads of examples tonight of more important things to worry about than changes to a tv channel or products being so popular you need to wait a bit longer to get your goodies. Top of the list is to say thinking about you and Grace, hoping all goes well and how lovely to know the warm swell of love and joy from us all carrying you on your way to see her. Hope Steve on mend too, still picturing him helping you clean blinds in New Mexico, laugh I nearly had a little accident. Thoughts also with Tina.

They're absolutely fantastic. Sometimes I add a "this is beautiful" comment. A few times I've put up my own work and it's always lovely when people say nice things.
