    You see, at that point...I loseany sympathy personally for geoffky!:rolleyes:edit.gif


    why should i put up with this..
    It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
    Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
    If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
    If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
    If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.

    .

    None of us have to: its not mandatory to visit here!

    I too was having a disagreement with chucky but did I threaten him?

    Personally, if someone was rude/threatening towards me and I felt reaction was needed my reaction would be to report them.

    you still trying to defend someone who is a poor excuse of a human being who has disregard and does not care for any other person.
    Wow, that's seriously judgemental about a person you've never met.

    YES I SENT THE PM .. and all it was was asking you to edit you posts because being a adult there are consequences for writing defamatory posts about people and i asked you to do that before i went any further.....you are adult and must understand that going so personal can and will have consequences.....end of story..

    i edited that post to keep the peace.

    i also notice that you deleted your post with the threat "as your feet will not touch the floor....do you want to edit that quickly.. because if you dont it will have serous consequences for you."

    to me that's a threat - will i report it?
    there is no need - agreed, end of story.

    Typical BT. They bring all the jobs out of the uk and still have the nerve to call themselves British Telecom. LOL.

    They need to bring back the jobs to the uk and not make people redundant. If it was'nt for their major stronghold on phone lines, they will have closed down along time ago.
    Motto: 'If you don't ask, you don't get!!'

    Remember to say thank you to people who help you out!

    Also, thank you to people who help me out.

    Apologies to geoffky, I shouldn't have written the post last night so harshly. I did mean what I said but it should have been worded differently.
