Re: bye all
I feel I have to reply to jb post..
"Lots of support and some advice but not one single offer of a room for a few weeks.
You lot should be thoroughly ashamed of yourselves."
I am not ashamed of myself because I have nothing to be ashamed about..
I am thoroughly disgusted with the attitude of some people. “She’s a stranger, I haven’t got room, I have kids too”. It’s all me, me, me, me, me, me, me! Where is your compassion for someone in dire need?
big deal your disgusted with me and everyone else - that should keep you quiet for a while then. and compassion like that would start with family and close friends - not strangers. - given that emma is neither then there can be no offer.
So you haven’t got a spare bedroom. Would it be so inconvenient to offer your couch for tonight?
yes it would as my house is small enough as it stands.
Oh! I forgot that would interfere with your home life. Well let it interfere. It’s only for a day or two
your correct - it would interfere with my home life and who are you to tell me to do something?.your a nobody - or is that a busybody?? - you know nothing about my homelife.
You lot are the pits!!!
well there you go then...I am the pits bet you thought a while about that one...
you dont know what pm's were sent and who offered what to emma off this board - so dont sit there thinking your something special cos you openely offered a place to stay - that doesnt make you any bigger or better than anyone else.

Re: bye all
Oh for goodness sakes Blazey she can't contact the housing associations at this time of night can she and if her friend offers the use of her PC for a little while to ease the stress of the situation why on earth shouldn't she log onto AccyWeb?
Glad you managed to come back online Emma.I was going to ask Mick (as he has your phone number) if he could mention Maundy Grange to you if you hadn't found anywhere but he didn't reply to my message and as I know he hasn't been well I didn't like to bother him. I know Dorothy is lovely and very helpful. She seems to know exactly the right thing to do.
Glad you found somewhere for tonight anyway. Please keep in touch if you can and let us know how you get on.

This situation began yesterday didn't it? I'm pretty sure there was some daytime hours today, when she could've rang around. I was asking to see what kind of response they had given her, not implying that she hadn't bothered.

And if you read, it wasn't me who brought up the fact that she's sat on the internet.

Its just that the situation sounded so desperate yesterday, like you were practically on the street, then you came online and said you'd been out and I felt a bit deceived.

The situation yesterday was not as acute as it was today. My comment on your criticism was because you seemed to imply that she should be out looking for accomodation rather than posting on AccyWeb. I was pointing out that she might as well be on here posting as she can't do much more tonight now. It's not as if she has just been online all day and doing nothing.

Re: bye all
I would like to add something about Maundy Grange. Dorothy does a fantastic job there as do the other support workers but try to enquire about anywhere that is offered for accommodation.
Maundy sent someone I know to a caravan park in Haslingden, I don’t recall the name of the place this was some 3 years ago, Holdens rings a bell…not sure tho. The said person stayed there for 4 days/3 nights. This was in the winter. The caravan had no gas until the 4th day, hence no heating or cooking could be done. The caravan was damp as was all of the bedding. The site owner was a woman also a bully. She demanded the benefits books of those placed on the site collected the cash herself and dished out the funds to her residents as she saw fit. My friend’s cash was paid directly into a bank account, which did not go down well in the first instance. My friend called me on the evening of the 4th day, suffice to say I went and collected them. A week after a bill for £108 was presented for gas used .
I reported all this to the powers that be and to Maundy Grange, apparently the Grange knew of the problem.
Just think on, that’s all I’m saying. Enquire about whatever is offered.

I wasn't intentionally being mean, I said I felt deceived about the severity of the situation. I said I do enjoy talking to emma and our chats, but it doesn't stop me feeling disappointed, as her inital post sounded really urgent, and clearly it wasn't urgent at all.

The caravan park in haslingden is a well known drugs haven, the owner is a member of the well known sharky family, I would not recommend this for even a short term.
