    Oh my word!!

    I'm far too weak for that! :eek::eek::eek:

    If I tried it I'd end up having to reregister with a different username and I'd get in such a muddle.

    I think we all have too much free time! :)



    I can see a problem with that. What if the same people chap your door a month later? They may get suspicious and report you to the police or ASDA. Or someone. Always think ahead!


    well, a house can take a while to sell, so it's feasible to be there a month later and if they did report me to the police - I can simply tell the police I was unwilling to divulge information to unknown parties
    and quite what ASDA have to do with it, I don't know?

    I think you'll find ASDA is very relevant. I assume you've not heard of the Association of Shifty Doorstep Annoyances.

    Lol, I'd get confused if other people started changing their username, let alone me changing mine!

    I have enough problems with people who regularly change their avatar (says she who has changed hers a few times of late!)

    Can i just say after reading this i was shocked! The poor girl has posted for help and all most of you can do is give her abuse for her spelling. The reason i've jumped in on this is due to my brother being dyslexic, and not being able to spell or write words in the correct order is not the end of the world. You all must be faultless though!!!!!!!!!! The girl wants help not a load of abuse!!!!

    I'm not sure what you mean by 'most of you'? :confused:

    One poster mentioned the spelling once, and at least three other posters have challenged that comment! :confused:

    Are you sure you are talking about this thread? :confused:
