Sorry guys, if I overstepped the mark, I meant no disrespect. 
Unfortunately, we live in strange times at present and I for one am feeling like im swimming against the tide. It seems very difficult to get anything done when everything needs doing. 
Still its no excuse for rudeness and if I caused any offence im sorry.
May I say I really have no idea what the rules are, obviously no swearing, threats etc. Where can I find them pls.

    Hi @dfs050365

    Thank you for your apology.  These are definitely strange times we're living in and we're all coping the best we can.  I hope today is a good one for you :)

    As a community it's important to us that our members are respectful of others opinions, even where understandings/opinions may differ, so I'd really stress to keep conversation topic-oriented rather than personal so we can maintain a friendly, supportive environment.

    You can also visit this Online community guidelines webpage to see other content that is not allowed, namely:

    Content we do not allow
    A post may be removed if we think it might be,
    • impersonating someone
    • against the law
    • harassing, inaccurate, defamatory, abusive, offensive, pornographic, racist, sexist, threatening, vulgar, obscene, hateful or otherwise inappropriate
    • dangerous to other users
    • advertising
    • crowdfunding or asking for money
    • infringing copyright.
    • personal information not suitable for public viewing like address, email or phone number
    • content not relevant to the community
    • medical advice.
    I hope this clarifies our community's rules but please ask away if you have any other questions.

    Hi I found online some info rhat will help some people, I put in a post being as brief possible. The information is there for all to see, please put it out.
    To be honest, if you look at my posts some of the responses where very aggressive. I am only relaying what happened to me, I have no reason to lie.
    Unfortunately I am suffering from anaemia which is making me tired and irritable. So it is easy to bang off a reply whilst caught up in the moment. 
    I will endeavour to exercise more restraint when communicating with other members. I realise what you are saying is right, these are topics that elicit strong emotions and the sight could deacend into personnal slanging matches. 
    Ty for taking the time to respond I do appreciate it.
    Ps please put that post up.
