    What they are asking why we sold Xabi Alonso for £30M and purchased someone for £20M who can't play for another month. Thus wreaking the start of the season.:)

    It will be like Man U's board after sunday :)

    And some of us are just plain confused and befuddled Dan....oops that's just me! :rotfl:

    With regards to new members joining in conversations, I joined up to view the Debt free board and sort of fell in here...I was still a new member of less than a few weeks. So it is quite possible that some (and notice the some here), have done the same thing.

    I also accept some are also returning members who may have been PPR'd or just fancied a change.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.
  • Wasn't Dithering Dad telling people six months ago to buy a house because the bottom was reached and because fixed interest mortgages had also reached their bottom price. I remember he was talking about a fee free 3.99% 5 year fix from A&L. I also believe that he called the bottom of the stock market correctly too.

    He was brave enough to make the predictions and was chased off the forum. I just hope he is still around to see how vindicated he has become. If some of you guys had actually listened to him you'd be a lot better off financially now. I listened to the frightened bears and all I see are houseprices moving away from me again. Am I going to miss out again?

    Like him or hate him DD was right. Funny we haven't seen carolt today?

    for anyone playing in the MSE fantasy footy league, don't forget you can change your Captain each week, in order to suit the weeks fixtures

    by the looks of it, some of you could also do with making some serious transfers already..

    Thats nothing. They even had a 80%-90% thread running during the hight of the falls last year.

    lol and I thought some bears on here were amusing, maybe the 80-90% was just a bull winding them up, I can't really believe anyone could be stupid enough to buy into that.

    The 70% club on here was always a good laugh, sadly it closed down around April time.
