Notice to newcomers - part 5

BUMP from 2

Sounds like a nice coat Horace, and 20% off is excellent.

*MF*

Rapidly heading for page 3 ... bump!

Hi everyone

Horace - like the sound of the coat

Numpty - you've started something with your new washer and f/f....


Rapidly heading for page 2.... BUMP

MF what is that in your avi?
it looks like a sink:think:

All caught up on sleep and DFW diaries... need to crackdown on that spending diary now...

Numpty, hope you get the kitchen sorted quickly! I've had my old oven in my hall for weeks as I know I'll drop in on my rubbish laminate flooring and create havoc if I try to move it myself!

Good evening all. for all newcomers lurking and wondering what the heck is going on, here is a resume.

Numpty has systematically wrecked his kitchen trying to fit in a new washing machine and fridge freezer donated by friends - the kitchen was only 6 foot by 4 foot when he started, gawd knows what it's like now.

Niccatw has been away for the weekend burning the candle at all ends and squandering money shamelessly.

Solvent has been skiving part of the day instead of doing bumping duty.

MF is conspicuous by his silence, and I think his avatar is more like a urinal than a sink.

And Horace - well, is the world ready for a lime-green Horace? For this and the answer to many more fascinating questions, watch this space.

(and me? well, I've been as good as gold like what I always am)

Oops nearly slipping off the page...busy on here tonight.

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

Answer here (back a few a pages):

It is an extract from one of Salvador Dali's paintings, and for me, he remains my most favourite artist, but he was a very strange guy - lmao, maybe that explains a lot about him being my favourite. :rotfl:

Full painting can be found here:

Nicca will be aware of one of his "non-surreal" paintings - on show in Glasgow, here:
