Anyone else just think they can't do this?

For those of you who think I am being unfair, simply take half an hour to read through all the threads she has started over the past year. It may take you longer, depending on how fast you read.

There is thread after thread after thread proclaiming woe is me. When people offer advice and help (as I did at the outset), she finds a multitude of reasons to reject their advice. She is an attention seeker, pure and simple.

She isn't a vulnerable young girl. If she is, do you think it is right that she is allegedly left in charge of other people's children and is allegedly training to teach primary children? I would be worried sick if she were in charge of any of my great nephews and nieces.

As for keeping quiet - why? Why allow other posters to be duped and made fools of? As indiat and DragonSlayer have said - I would feel bad if anything were to happen and I had kept quiet.

Let's face it, this has been going on for over a year. I have lost count of the number of times Cedars has been told it is not a good idea to bring her problems (perceived, real, made up) to the forum. But still she does. Why? Because she adores the attention.

Thats fair enough....I was paying towards a mortgage when I was 18...so maybe I've missed that stage completely!

Me too! OK, I was 20 with my 1st mortgage - but I meant the missing things out :o

We get one barrow a day out of each of the paddocks....if you leave it, you are doomed! :(

I take 1 builders (Wickes type) barrow twice a day for 2 fuzzies - and the barrow isn't full (but almost!) :)

...do you find you get obsessed with it...?? If you are an hour late from the previous day, there seems to be loads more....! It's stuck in the brain now, if I do nowt else, that has GOT to be done....
 
Does it actually matter if the OP was telling the truth? She raises topics that others discuss - and for all you know someone else may be is a similar position, but too shy to post about their issues, can read the well thought out replies and it may help them out.

I can understand how some of you longer term members feel let down, but in the great scheme of things does it really matter?
 
For the strong characters on this thread.
Be glad you are strong, your life and the way you have lived it, and the people you have encountered along the way have made you like this. You have experience on your side, there isnt much you havent seen or done, and you can sit back and see a situation for what it is.
Not every one has your life experiences, some just cant cope with it on their own, wether they lie to gain sympathy, or just need help wiith every day situations.
Some are just not strong, others apeare strong but in reality arent!

too damned right on that! :cool:

Work days its like 12 hours in & 12 hours out - lovely, nice amount for barrow (tho pitch dark each time).
Non-work days its horrible - am clock watching as am worrying about those 2 or 3 extra piles going in :(
 
But does anyone else count their horse's poos :o .... I do, every day and write it down, so that must make me different, as at least I do not count the wheelbarrow loads :D:D:D:confused:
 
I have 3 small horses/ large ponies and I get 1- 1.5 barrows a day... Mind you, it's been so dark lately there could be twice that in there and I'm just missing it :o

My problem is that at this time of year, haylage + less day light = that it is a never ending battle.

So, yes, I agree with the OP, poo picking on Monday morning before lectures, when my neck was killing me, I really was thinking, 'ARGH! I can't do this all winter! I can't cope with it all!' :o

I'm with you. I also don't understand what it is exactly that is going to happen to the allegedly lied to forumers if the "enlightened" don't speak out with the truth as they see it. :confused:

Exciting stuff!

I like to think that I would be in serious contention for both size of my swanky new wheelbarrow AND no. of poos my horse can produce in 24 hours :cool:

At least your horses are beautiful. One of mine is hideous and one is so hairy it might as well be! And even worse the hairy one hardly poos in the field. It waits til it gets in, does it all in the stable and then smushes it up into tiny, tiny pieces!

Oooh, interesting!

Will this be a photo competition??

If so I must stop my mother giving the stuff away to her tennis pals in exchange for wine and veggies!

Yes, it could be a photo-comp...

We could have various classes..

Biggest Pile of Poo in the field...
Biggest Pile of Poo in a wheelbarrow...
Biggest Pile of Poo EVER! (could be the muckheap...)

Anymore??

Charlie wonders if there could be a class for biggest-load-of-poo-half-in-the-barrow-&-half-in-the-field?
