Dragonfly 4...compiled by Crofter!

[paulineward]

There is a girl in Stockport
Who has just had a great thought.
I'm sure they all know
I'll remind them though
The 'Dragonfly' should be bought!

Oh pauline this really does sound great,
Ive sent for mine and just cant wait.
It was but ten days ago,
where it is I do not know.
A busy lady you must be,
so Iam not priority.
So i will wait with breath bated,
And be worth while that I have waited.

It's not come to your house?
Then why not contact smouse?
She hands scanned copies out
so the charity gets nowt.

[Mamyalynne]

Oh square dont start this up again,
It really can become a pain.
I think you do malign wee mouse,
Its easy to have a grumpy grouse.
Her offer was to one alone,
not all and sundry-do not moan.
Freebi had already paid,
so charity already paid.
Now kiss and make up lets be fair,
theres more to worry about out there.

That is so hurtful and so wrong

I said before the majority of the quizzes I enter I get by scan (saves 2 first class stamps) and the charity loses nothing.
I will not go into my personal details but as I dont work and neither does hubby spending �30+ a month on quizzes that goes to charities is doing my bit

I really cant believe you have chosen to do this on a new thread

[paulineward]

Hope you see this in time for tonights post!!

Thanks....

[squarebear]

My apologies smouse but I too find it hurtful when you accuse me of "answering questions when it's not wanted", "not being able to finish a quiz" and "give clues not answers".

But I apologise and didn't mean to hurt you.

[Pebbles]

Mamya you are just so right,
Squarebear really has no fight,
Smouse is lovely and has class
Squarebear you are just an .........and I just can't think of anything to rhyme there...... ;-)

[squarebear]

first class? ;-)

[smouse]

Not quite the same but I wont go into that - appology accepted

You have made me cry and that takes some doing - got enough to put up with without you accusing me of ripping of charities

[paulineward]

I think we had better all move on please,
This should all be friendly..and not a tease.

Have a good weekend everyone. The sun is shining...be happy! Life is too short, as some of the children you are helping when you support this quiz are testament to.

Hugs all round, lets be friends,
Here and now the feuding ends.

Pauline will email and send in some more money with the quiz

[oddboddy]

All smouse did was offer a copy to someone till their copy arrived she broke no rules. The person she offered it to from what I understand had paid, so no money was lost by smouse's offer. I dont see how that warrants the sarcasm directed at her.

[Aquagility]

Rhyme is fine
from line ro line,
but
whether from cottage or from mansion
pay attention to your scansion.

[Aquagility]

And your spelling! For ro read to.

[squarebear]

Oddboddy - With all due respect, anyone could say that they had sent off for it and could you send a copy while I wait for it to arrive.

[Aquagility]

squarebear, I can't believe that anyone would send in a copied quiz, hoping to win a prize, knowing that their name would not be on the organisers list.
So what on earth is this all about?

[oddboddy]

squarebear yes they could but I assumed no-one on here would be that low on a charity quiz and even if they did surely the copies are numbered or have some way of knowing who's paid and who hasnt. I just think the sarcasm aimed at smouse was unkind when she was genuinely trying to help someone.

[squarebear]

My point is that many others, like myself, pay to buy these quizzes but don't send the entry in. Instead, just doing it for fun and entertainment.

If people were to receive a free copy then how would the charity benefit?

[Diane1954]

for heavens sake smouse was trying to do someone a favour. She didn't offer 'free' copies to everyone just someone who has sent for it.
We don'tknow everyones circumstances and private life wether people have disabled sons,daughters,mothers,fathers,husbands.wives or second cousins!!
I work full time and dont have as much free time as a lot of people but i have a couple of good friends who help me a lot.
Can't we stop all this picking on people and be friends. again.Even in verse its not clever
Smouse i would like to thank you for all the help you have given me over the years.(literally)

[smouse]

Lots of people now say quiz by email with money on entry. Are you saying that people do this and don't pay.
There is no difference between that and sending in a copy with the money.
I accept it isnt what Pauline wants and thats fine its her quiz and her choice
I presume that means you are doubting freebi then and how can you when you dont know her or me for that matter

I have ten quizzes ready to post and everyone is a scan with the money included

Once again I wish to point out I offered it to freebi because I got the impression she had no other quizzes and wanted one to be getting on with.

I did nothing wrong and wish this topic could now end you have hurt me enough
