Advice for starting a new thread might also include to make sure that the thread is on the correct board suitable to deal with that particular question.
As my dad taught me, measure twice, cut once

Not so much for the guide but a 'Capcha' code for the first half dozen threads from a newbie would go a long way to cut down on spammers, particularly the  bots.

I can't believe you used the word "bargainistas" - even Google Chrome spell check doesn't recognise it

Very entertaining  and useful. Soothing background music. Very stylish editing. I didn't like the narrator though. It is always better to have men as narrators because they wouldn't have that shrill in their tone and it would be gentler to listen to. This one reminded me of the nuns  we had at school. Have you listened to the
narrator
on hostelworld. He is so good, he wooed me to visit some places. Apart from the narrator voice and accent, this is comprehensive and informative.

Flight Delay Compensaion
After seeing a programme with Martin Lewis hosting regarding flight delays I contacted Thomas Cook.
I got a reply within a week of my letter and have today received a voucher from them so am now looking forward to having a holiday to compensate for my delay.
Thanks Martin and Thomas Cook

Reading some of the posts in this thread, can someone tell me how these newbie's managed to get directed here if they have used the forum introduction guide.
