    I ordered lots of stuff from M&S in their one day 20% off sale - then I realised I couldn't afford it so didn't hit the checkout button:mad:


    I did that the other day! I had a fantasy shopping spree and almost spent my entire Icesave savings :rotfl:

    Good God this thread is now on it's 64th page! looking down the list it is one of the busiest on the forum, it all started because I was pontificating about the FSCS in another thread and someone (Don't remember who) made a comment something like "I am gradually leaning to Nilrems camp on this" just meaning they were starting to agree with me:eek: (lol does not happen often) and I though I would start a thread entitled "nilrems camp" TBH I thought it would just disappear off the page very quickly, I never imagined it would be this strong 7 days later!

    All of this is irrelevant to the subject of the thread but in the absence of an FSCS email we have to discuss something.:eek::confused:

    I guess it will, unfortunately for some, continue in the same vein until at least the end of the month.

    To be honest I'm surprised we haven't been shunted off to the Arms before now so I reckon we should all give the resident BG's a huge cheer!!! :beer:

    This thread has been a huge source of support to many of us here over the last couple of weeks and I dread to think where some of us might be without it. Just speaking for myself I've been on a bit of a rollercoaster, and you've no doubt noticed I'm on a bit of a high today ;) ... but I've also felt extremely low over the last couple of days, so many thanks to all of you just for being here and sharing the laughter and tears :A :T :beer:

  • Been out all day. Just got in and caught up. Congrats to amistupid (on 2nd e-mail and other things), altocumulus, nomad 25, Nagiw and anyone else I may have missed.

    BUT - why so few? You're not going mad, nilrem, the way you're reacting is the only sane response to this situation. Know it doesn't help but am still keeping vigil, as is janlaine and others, I'm sure.
