  • I probbably should haved asked the CCCS peeps on here:confused:
    can you imagine it cccs numpty:rotfl::rotfl::T:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:


    And yes I am serious about doing this:A

    Good for you Numpty. Is it free if you are on benefits?...otherwise looks a little expensive but very worthwhile.

    You are in the right part of the country too....I think their main call centre is in your neck of the woods.

    I`d like help out at CAB...voluntary at first, when I feel up to it & then seeing where that takes me. Just feel like they`ve put up with me for so long, & really got me moving in the right direction, that I need to give something back if I can...even if its doing their filing:D:D

    hmmmm wonder if I can be a debt counsellor if I`m bankrupt:confused::confused: ?? lol we`ll see I guess.

    Hi Angie, Nargle et al.

    Nargle - I haven't won the pools - I have just had a little spend and now I am being as frugal as hell:eek: I also did a Nigel Slater tonight (he that was on telly last night cooking simple recipes from store cupboard and allotment food) and stewed some plums and had them with birds instant custard (made from a packet by adding boiling water). ...mmm stewed plums and custard...so simple yet so divine. The clothes purchases today were made from free money which I have now entered onto consumerpulse to get even more free money:rotfl:

    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
