    Do you know what, I actually take great offence to that comment.

    I spend SOOO much time on here HELPING PEOPLE - and guess what, I dont have to. None of us get paid to give advice or help people, but we do, so yes, some posts may go completely off topic, but find me a website that doesnt have unrelated topics.

    Its only trolls like you that like causing bad feeling amongst places like this.

    Don't let people like that wind you up hun.

    We all know how much time you all spend helping people.

    I don't know what I would've done these last few months if it wasn't for you lot.

    It's not just the practical advice that helps. It's the cheerful, friendly banter like this between friends who all either have the same problems, or have been there.

    And to threaten us that Martin wouldn't be pleased, I'm sure he would let us know if he wasn't.
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

    Aw sorry to hear that PP, I agree though, sometimes coming on here and seeing the fun bits is as important as the good advice.
    That's ok, thanks though (will thank later, button doesn't work here at work!) I totally agree, as if debt isn't depressing enough in itself! A little lightheartedness is soooooooo helpful, especially when you're feeling that there's nothing to smile about, and then coming on here and seeing things like the "embarrassing moments" thread! This has made me chuckle, and our party the other night!!! MSE has been a real lifesaver in more ways than one :o xx

    dearie me, why on earth did you feel the need to post this? :confused: ms_london, PP, ss and James keep me very much amused on a daily basis (with SS it's more laughing at him than with him... but every little helps ;) )... and as so many people have already pointed out, they have helped OODLES of people on this thread with really sound advice... who cares if they go off topic occasionally? I know that if I posted with a problem or was feeling really down/wobbly about my debts then they would all be there with supportive and helpful comments... so I for one would like to say thank you to you all... long may your random postings continue! :T :j :T

    oh, and I would like to see a picture of all of you (no SS, that does NOT mean a naked picture... it means each one of you :p ), preferably without hairy cracks if possible :rotfl:
    Aww, what a lovely post!!! Dunno if you'd wanna see piccies of me!!! Although ms_l is incredibly pretty so she can post!!! xx

    Justice - it's obvious from hundreds of post the affection that is felt on these boards for SS, Ms London, James and PP. If you don't like the way a thread is going you only have to stop reading it! It's not as if they hijacked someone else's thread.

    It's such a shame isn't it because it's not like we're here hijacking cos you've been in debt, and the rest of us are. We do (try!) to offer advice as best we can and sometimes we need a bit of light relief. I know I do as today is the third anniversary of my mum's death and so a little light chat with some mates is really helping me today..................I also wish that person had felt able enough to use their own username to voice their comments, would have had a better reception I think that using an anonymous alias.

    ((((((((hugs)))))))) I hope you're ok hun. If you need a chat I'm here. xx
