    Lula's not upset at all;

    just amused at the thought of being domesticated :rotfl: My feminist principles will be cast to the wind the very second that tall, dark, handsome & very rich man with a maserati & a driving ban turns up - happy to be a subservient wife in return for life of idle luxury :D

    Hi everybody.


    Over the last few weeks we have had a number of "troll" attacks on the boards.

    What is a Troll? A troll is a person that posts deliberately provocative, nasty or hurtful comments on threads. They may be a person with no previous connection to the board or someone that has created a pseudonym to get their point made.

    If you should get a comment made on any thread you post asking for help and advice please realise this comment is not directed at you personally.
    We really are all a lovely bunch here (oops, modest, sorry) so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal.

    what should i do if i get a comment made on my thread?

    firstly do not respond to the comment as this invariably is what the person wants. At the bottom of the post, on the left hand side is a red "warning" triangle. Click this and then "send" the message that comes up. This will report the message to abuse who will review it's content and delete it.

    The person we had this morning was particularly vile and nasty and please believe me is an extreme rarity here.
    Above all PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE BOARDS. THIS SITE IS AN ASSET TO SO MANY, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT FEELS THE WORLD IS FALLING IN ON YOU. THERE IS SUCH A WEALTH OF ADVICE HERE TO BE HAD THAT THE COMMENTS OF ONE MUST NOT DETER YOU FROM AVAILING YOURSELF OF THE KNOWLEDGE HERE!!!!

    It is testament to the work that martin has done and continues to do that so many people give their time knowledge and experience freely to others, without judgement, to lift people out of the depths of debt crisis

    PLEASE DO NOT LET THE ACTIONS OF THE MINORITY RUIN THAT.


    Kind wishes
    P


    We need a warning system so that we know when we're going on to a new page :D

    Is this->> a real word lol [ antimacassars ] sounds something like you would find in a Morrocan hareem:)

    Yep its a real word antimacassars are actually pieces of material usually you get a large piece that goes over the back of the chair where your bonce would rest and you get two other bits to go over the arms. They were very popular and I can remember my grandparents had them mainly because my granddad was a brylcreem man and therefore had a greasy bonce all the time:rotfl:
