    I stayed up and watched the film Letters from Iwo Jima

    I wanted to watch that too, H - in fact I turned over after watching 'Little Voice' for the third time, but when I saw what time it finished sanity prevailed and I decided to climb the 'wooden hill to Bedfordshire' ;)

    Didn't even think about recording it. :doh: :doh:

    Afternoon all,
    I really wanted to see that film and completely forgot to record it - doh!! :confused: Oh well, I'm sure it'll be on again sometime.

    Hope everyone is well today and that you've managed to get outside without shrinking Horace..

    Bye for now.
    :) The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time :)

    I've just had a 'sneaky' bar of 'smart price' plain chocolate, myself. ;);)

    Not quite the same as the 70% Lindt bars, but then again, not quite the same price. :rotfl:

    Warmed up stew for me this evening. :o

    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

    Bump for the 'newbies'
