Obnoxious Comments

I have regrettably received some inappropriate comments on the Blog recently and, as a consequence of this, full Comment Moderation now applies for the time being.

I have enjoyed your blog immensely. There is no need for inappropriate comments in an area reserved for gentlemen.

thats a shame-freedom of the internet eh? scrolling through your previous comments on posts I struggle to see which ones my Lord is referring to. I wouldnt worry about the negative commentators, it doesnt affect what is an enthralling and much loved blog. Keep up the good work!

The negative comments occurred yesterday on Engagement Photographs.

I really did not wish to be obnoxious, and I apologise entirely if any offence was caused. That was certainly not my intention. Also I appreciate that you have not removed the comment you disapprove of.

I have followed your blog for about a year now and have found your posts very interesting. I have posted before and I have appreciated your replies. I hope you continue with your blog and I wish you well with it.

If it puts my comments and questions in perspective, both my partner and myself, and 3 of my friends have all lost our jobs in the last month. It's a common story in this country.

I'm not looking for sympathy, I only requested that you acknowledge the obvious questions that will come to the mind of most people in Britain today when they see such opulence in a time of such hardship for so many.

It was a genuine request for your opinion, and I am sorry this was taken to be a cheep dig at you.

I again apologise for any offence, and I will understand if you do want to have this comment included on your blog.

D, the obnoxious comments weren't really relating to you!

I received two anon comments after you which used expletives.

Please don't be put off and I value my regular visitors.

ah typical snobbish behaviour - don't like what you hear so cover it up and/or ban it

Anon,

I shall not tolerate what I consider to be abusive or inappropriate comments on my blog. I received a comment earlier using a four-letter word twice.

You will appreciate that I have posted your comment.
