Hey Jude, I'm not sure what you mean by "How Canadian"? Am I being insulted? Or perhaps praised? What did I say that's so Canadian?

To give her the benefit of the doubt, as she's a new poster, it may be that instead of deleting her email address which she'd included in her opening post and was asked to delete, she deleted the whole thread by mistake or misunderstanding.

But the wasted effort is still annoying!

Dammitt! I thought the name was familiar and looked for the thread but couldn't find it so thought I must be mistaken.

This really makes me angry that someone would delete a thread and then ask the same thing on a new thread.

ArgyllGran Report 27 Sep 2015 15:14

A lot of the above was found already in reply to a query Maureen posted last week about Rena Nisbet (Alexandrina) - and then she deleted the thread the same or following day - 21st or 22nd September.

It would have saved much duplication of effort if the first thread had been left.
