Amazing what CAN be done with persistence, despite telling us constantly that threads cannot be reinstated !!

Good to see Jean's tributes back where they belong xxx

Well, I am just so pleased... my thread was reported as abusive, lol and deleted... but now that Jean's is back I shan't push it any more.

Thank you GR

Love

And they've reinstated Lyndas' post (at bottom of page 9) regarding Jeans funeral.

Well done GR. Being honest about making a mistake, a bit of humble pie & making the effort to correct things. Goes a long way to instill the trust of your members.

Well I'm glad to see that the thread has been restored properly, though I am disappointed that GR staff can't get their stories straight and tell us honestly why it was deleted in the first place,

AND...they are always telling us a thread cannot be reinstated. Well clearly that was never true either as this just proves it.

But at least it's done now, and back where it should be, though it should never have been so disrespectfully deleted in the first place.

I hope, by way of asking roughly what time it was deleted, GR are looking into who removed it and who asked for it to be removed.

Hopefully they will be able to retrieve the RR sent to them, or look in their sent box to see if they replied to said person.

I hope they ban them for life.

Mildred, you put up a thread, on Satuday afternoon, saying that Jean's thread had gone. I joined in a few minutes later, to say it had gone in the last 5/10 mins. If you know what time your thread went up, you could find the approx. time
