    Did laff though because when I went to pay (it was warmer in the paying bit) this silly man comes to the counter and asks "do you take Morrison's vouchers?" uhm...hello this is the auction house and not Morrisons:rotfl:


    Tis true what they say - there's nowt so queer as folk.
    Have not been up long - was a creature of the night last night (and I don't mean down the docks either) but have got tonight off so can get proper kip tonight. Beautiful day, brilliant sunshine out there. Spring is on its way fo sure, despite the thick fog I drove through at 0700 today.

    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

    Registered nurse in good old NHS hospital. Have to do one or two weeks of nights each month - knackering but the pay is worth it. Also nights are completely different from days ( apart from not having the big yellow thing in the sky that is) - chance to catch up on admin, phone not constantly ringing, no endless streams of people in and out - and chance to double check patients are getting the care and treatment they need, and chase things if they are not.
