Who on earth is Marysrose, and why has she seen fit to block me?
@On the Contrary> What you have stated regarding blocking other bloggers is all very well in theory, but has little relevance to my original question[s]. I'm blocked by a Marysrose with whom I have had no dealings on any topic I might have engaged in. Had I not wanted to give Marysrose a thumbs up for a comment she[?] posted, I would have been none the wiser as to the blocking he or she has enforced …More
