LOL! I had one too, Ellice! I`d also like to add that I`m not the designer
that Victoria mentions, although one designer did email me to warn me about her in a similar vein ages ago when the Gnat first arrived on the scene. However, since the same designer also warned me about Victoria ...... which should at least give Victoria a laugh, since we get on fine even if we don`t ALWAYS agree! As I say, I feel sorry for the poor girl (Gnat, not Viv), but I also feel sorry for anyone involved. Pat P "Ellice" wrote in message ... Hey gang, I have to throw in something. First, this person posted anonymously, which has now caused a problem for me. As a result of this posting, Nathalie evidently believes it was me - because in the header reference lines my 2 prior posts in the thread are cited. And now, as she is understandably upset with what she perceives as untruths being published about her - she has attributed this "anonymous" to me. So, I'm writing to say this is most definitely not me. And I am taking action with my ISP to ensure that whatever "good" name I have isn't sullied by this posters actions. Lovely for me to be threatened when all I've done is try to present some calm look at a bad situation. Yes, I have responded to Nathalie's personal, ummm, shall we say, ultimatum threatening action against me if I don't retract all the crap that was in the anonymous post. FWIW - Nathalie says to me that essentially this is either full of lies, or misrepresentations (my paraphrase). She has also informed me that she will be going to the NEWSGROUP (horrors) to post this, with the header open - as if we dolts (my word) can't figure out how to do that ourselves and thus show what a terrible person I am, and then I can lose all my credibility, and so forth. So, gang, I've snipped all the offensive, potentially libelous stuff. And am letting you know that this isn't me. Believe it or not. It was certainly a shock to me to open my e-mail this morning, and have an attacking e-mail in my box from Nathalie - with this attached - and ultimatums about what actions I must take. Just in point of fact, at 4:23 AM EDT, I was in bed with DH, and Puckster. I'm sure Puckster will be happy to witness. Yikes.

I`d also like to add that I`m not the designer that Victoria mentions, although one designer did email me to warn me about her in a similar vein ages ago when the Gnat first arrived on the scene. I can only say that the post must have really distressed her, and she sent mails to whoever's address showed in the header reference chain. However, since the same designer also warned me about Victoria ...... which should at least give Victoria a laugh, since we get on fine even if we don`t ALWAYS agree! Well, I think that's true about many of us. We get along, despite our disagreements about many subjects. Keeps life interesting. As I say, I feel sorry for the poor girl (Gnat, not Viv), but I also feel sorry for anyone involved. It's a mess, as I understand it. Poor thing is clearly having problems, and choosing to believe her mails to me, is trying to work things out so that it's all sorted. I might not agree with her approach, but she assures me that she's trying to do things which will settle her business obligations. It might not be the best way, IMO, but at least it's something. Clearly, she's dealing with some emotional fragility and taking too much to heart what's said on a usenet group, well, that could do damage to anyone. I think your guess might not be far off - but who knows. Anyhow, I now really do have to go and do business errands - like pay the county for my business license (which notice of renewal got lost in the mail) and renew Puckster's tag. After all - if he's going to witness for me - he must be legal! I've just been outside, and had my own little trauma - I think puckster brought a rescue trophy to the back door. There appears to be what looks like a dead little bird, and I cannot deal with dead wee things. Or it's the strangest looking piece of tree branch I've ever seen. Puckster doesn't ever attack any animals, but we've caught him standing guard over a squirrel that fell from a nest before. Never chases the birds, though he does like to look. So, I think he must've found it, and brought it to the door for help. Yuck. Only the 2nd trophy he's ever brought to the door. Oh, well. Happy stitchin' gang, ellice |

Looking at the headers, it's clearly a different ISP than the one this
message was posted from. Nathalie really ought to figure out what she's talking about before she starts slinging accusations. Meredith Ellice wrote: Hey gang, I have to throw in something.

Oh yeah - they were fun times, weren`t they? Once we realised that both of
us were grinning whilst burning holes in the keyboards? You`ve been so GOOD lately! Pat P "animaux" wrote in message ... What could anyone warn you about me? The moment we met we started out fighting cat claws out and all! Remember those days? It is sense of humor which attracts me to people.

Well then, she needs to learn to read headers better. The anonymous post originated at uswest.net, you post from cox.net, so it didn't come from you unless you were using a different account.

wrote: I was not altogether shocked a few short weeks ago when I received an email/e-group notice that Nathalie was stopping her business. Neither were we. Knowing Nathalie well from large numbers of group dealings, we've worried for those involved with this venture from the start. I was quite surprised to learn in another post in the this thread that she has reopened under another business name. I was even more surprised when I went to her new website and under her "modelstitching" section, she is actively recruiting new modelstitchers, yet no former modelstitchers for NDMDC were allowed to apply, minus the select few that have already received personal letters from her, as stated on the new website. Just an FYI, I believe that Nathalie's previous company, NDMDC, was a sole proprietorship. Therefore, she's personally responsible for all debts. My understanding is that those debts can be discharged by requesting the money from the new company. Check with your lawyer to be sure. We've already made private suggestions to a designer or two who have had big losses from this. I wish you all the best in trying to reclaim what is yours!
