for what its worth,...

i'm sorry that happened to you, Sorcha, it must have been awful.

i have spent lots of time in the chat room here, and have never tried any other ones. it has helped me to get to know catters all around the globe. Ive had some fantastic discussions with different people in there and lots of fun. ive never had a bad experience in the chat room and hope people who havent tried it arent put off by this event. or by the lack of punctuation.
