    Can we please remember the forum rules about being civilised and polite? I know opinions differ, and everyone is of course free to express theirs, but there's no reason to get angry or for tempers to fly about.

    As such, can I suggest to exel that you edit your last post (the shouting and calling names bit)? I may personally agree with what you have to say, and as you're a frequent poster I don't want to report you for infringing forum rules, but I do consider your insult abusive and intolerant.

    Please get real !!

    I dont need you to tell me how to behave so please step down from the high moral horse you find yourself on. Thank you.

    And you don't consider the previous use of the word insulting in the post before mine ?

    As for ARTBREAK I believe he/she is here to wind people up and nothing more, judging by the stream of irrelevant posts.

    Goodnight all.

    I'm assuming you carry the same resentments to those people who run up massive debts living a lifestyle that goes way beyond their means, then they file for bankruptcy and have all those debts "written off" ........ I bet you're a barrel of laughs in the Debt-free wannabe forum! :rotfl:

    I have no sympathy whatsoever to those who find themselves in a financial predicament through a reckless lifestyle.

    However for those that find themselves in genuine hardship through no fault of their own I do.

    Debt to the reckless is always somebody elses fault and never their own.

    Couldn't agree with you more..... I have no debt, live within my means, but see people living like kings on debt and credit, then the government decide to drop interest rates to help those who live by that debt and credit..... which screws up things for me! nothing I can do about it, but it's annoys the hell out of me!

    No envy whatsoever!

    I have 4 credit cards and could easily go on a spending spree if I wanted to fill my life with expensive possesions! If you think I'm envious of people who are up to their eyeballs in debt and facing baliffs knocking on their door then your very mistaken! I just can't understand how people can spend money they don't have on things they can live without, I'm fully sympathetic with people suffering real hardship through no fault of their own, but it's the people who can't seem to stop themselves spending money they don't have that baffle me.

    Why on earth would someone be envious of someone who lives their life on the take? As I said higher up, people without scruples who want others to pay for their lifestyle are the scum of the earth. I'm certainly not jealous of you or your kind and don't regret a life of living well on the back of my earnings. Why should we be jealous? You're the ones having to run away.

    I think there's likely to be many people on here who have spent more money than you have and can sit back with a big smile on their face knowing they've earned it and don't owe nowt for owt.

    I reckon Excel's right, I reckon you're a troll - or maybe just French and upset that we have better lamb :D
    You've never seen me, but I've been here all along - watching and learning...:cool:
