    Aha, the monkey beat me again, that's why i got to page 4 & still couldnt find this thread :rolleyes:

    Are you coming to paint my floorboards for me Numpty :D

    Have just sacked the 'mate' who was helping. He decided that rather than glue down the split piece of wood that he would rip it up with a claw hammer :eek: . I now have an inch deep gouge in one of them :mad:.

    True what they say - if you want a job doing properly .. do it yourself :rolleyes:

    Some men cannot be relied upon for anything:rolleyes:

    Sorry to hear that you are still having problems with the Planks Numpty - have they found your cheque yet?

    Anyway I am feeling rather pleased with myself. I have received a lovely PM from a young person who posted on the Employment & Jobseeking board because they were in a mess and had done something silly at work with regard to their referees (reading between the lines it was for an internal promotion). Lots of people on the thread were extremely judgemental and I gave this young person lots of advice both openly on the forum and in PM - as a result of my advice they have been able to keep their job:cool: Ain't life grand:D

    Things like that young person's pm makes it all worthwhile:D:T:j:j:T:A

    My debts are Yorkshire plank Loans and Yorkshire plank Credit Card:rolleyes:

    The Loan ones are the ones who phoned today
    The Credit Card ones are the ones who have lost the cheque:confused:
    I really should write them a letter and send the proof , but It will cost me more in postage than the missing cheque is worth:confused::mad:


    I think some of the things I've learned from MSE/DFW is:
    They can't have what I haven't got:D
    I know some of the rules:o
    Someone will be here if I get scared :A
    Have fun with the phone calls:rotfl:if they are wasteing thier time calling me , saves someone else getting scared by them:o

    BUMP

    You've hardly had time to turn round Numpty before you are on your way back. Have you even had time to do your washing?!

    Horace, thats so nice the you got some personal feedback and great that you could help person involved.

    Hello everyone else :hello:

    Uh-oh :o I have been spending on clothes again :D but today I went to a proper mse friendly shop and got lots of things for not a lot of money. Plus I have now finally sorted out bargain cheap contact lenses (saving me over £10 per month :j).

    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

    Quick one of these
