Why don't YOU post ?? My gripe today is EVENTS FORUM - Were you ever taught to share ? Well I was and I do. If I find something of interest to someone, maybe even one person, I pop it in the events section. Why not?? And so many times, people reply, yep, already going to that one or similar. It frustrates me, why didn't you share it ?? Why leave it to someone else ?? Maybe I will just stop posting altogether!!!

Julie I agree with you wholeheartedly (that looks wrong but I dont think it is!). And I truly appreciate the advice you give to us all. I think if people do take on board the advice given and give it a try then an occasional pm with a simple thankyou would also be great.
I've shared planners etc and noticed that they have been downloaded numerous times- whether they have been useful I dont know. Some us of may become unwilling to share our experiences and ideas if people are not willing to do the same.
Just my opinion.

Julie please do not stop posting - I am begging you!!
I honestly did not give it a thought of posting the event. When I think of events I think of events that members are organising not a general event unless the organiser is seeking a particular stall holder. So I am sorry I had not added to the forum prior to replying to your post. I had actually been given details of the event by another member orginally.
I am booked or will by the end of next week into 4 events over the next 2 months so I guess I should be posting these too in both "Events" for a general post and "Shameless" for a self promotion.
Again I beg you DO NOT STOP POSTING as I am often have a giggle out reading your posts

I Share !!!
I am sharing kinda person, but when I found out about this one,(zero2five) the only other person that was "kiddie" plan minded ( and local) that I knew of was Janine - who I DID share with via pm and in person.
I will definately post any others. See my recent post for the Natural Baby Expo.
I did actually post the original thread about the SHE expo..... I am booked in for that one.
Julie is right.. we do need to post when we hear about stuff, rather than just assume it wouldn't be suitable for someone one else, or be unintentionally selective. My mistake.
I will be more aware next time.
Sorry guys.
Andrea.
