    So, stranger on the internet is glad a proper job has been withdrawn, so a dodgy internet scam can be concocted between afore-mentioned job loser and dodgy predator on internet forum.

    Sounds good.

    I'll await PM.

    Yours

    Ponzi Pastures.

    Oooh, never been called a dodgy predator before.
    Sounds very exciting. Bit nerve-wracking though. Not sure I can live up to it. :eek:

    I'm a carer for my son who is profoundly disabled. I'm also in the middle of an OU degree in Literature, which I'm really enjoying.

    Before the kids came along I was a shop manager, and after kids I was a part-time shop assistant. Sadly I had to give that job up as my sons very complex needs made it impossible to manage both employment and his care.

    I'm an estate agent by trade. Moved into BTL during the boom years and made a small fortune. Having got rid of my portfolio in June 2008 am sitting on cash which I am lending as payday loans on the black market to ex-felons and illegals. Got a couple of very handy fellows who help me collect each week and don't expect much in return. Apart from that am running a few of the usual scams, claiming benefit under several false ID's and just starting up an internet passport offering.

    Life's pretty good.

    any chance you can get me a Singaporean one? Not a crap one though, it has to pass muster when I try and re-enter Singapore. I've 'lost' my real one you see, don't have time to deal with the authorities.

    If you can't do that can see if you can get me a replacement for my UAE one?

    While we're at it - can you lend me the money to pay for my replacement passport. I have no plans to skip the country, honest.
    I am an IFA (and boss o' t'swings idst)

    You are giving me that private stakeholder pension and those share options you promised aren't you?

    Have you noticed, no one is ever 'a full time Mum to 3 awful children'. There must be some out there, surely.

    My life is identical to yours BOBS. Just substitute 'children' for 'holidays', 'jewellery' for 'sandwiches' and 'church' for, erm, well, whatever the athiest version of a church is (pub? Richard Dawkin's house?).
