Yikes Spoon, hope those E numbers don't keep you awake all night!!!!

Well done on just being you I say!

And reminding me to take care of my teeth!

Numpty; I forgot about the cashback sites . I've only recently figured out how to work them and not before I applied for my new account. Not had the chance to use one yet, but it's on my ever expanding list of things to remember. It's a good job we have Spoon as chief reminderer !

Night all .

Ahh.. thanks nicca. No, the E numbers didn't keep me awake, but my streaming cold did, unfortunately:(:(

Anyway, it's a bright sunny day so am I going to let the cold and lack of sleep get to me....no, not at the moment anyway:):)

Good morning everyone - can't believe mine's the first post of the day:)

Good morning all

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

I think we'll have another one of these towards the end of the page.
Hello to all the newbies. Please do post if you are having problems with debt or money issues and people on here will do their best to help and supprt.

Good morning all.
You have sunshine Spoon? we don't have any here yet, which is probably good as I'm not feeling particularly sunny (no real reason).

Have a good day all.

solventsoon

Yep, bright sunshine here, Tixy, don't think it will last but good at the moment.

Hope your day is going OK.

Tixy

Just borrowed this little fella from next door

solventsoon

Thought you'd like him when you saw him, Tixy:):):)

A non-teddy bear BUMP from me - about to fall onto page 2, caught just in time:)

Tixy

Oh I am annoyed (although with myself as well as egg this time)

Tried to go into my online egg account and just can't think of my password. Tried to reset the password but can't because I don't know the security code from the card (as I cut the card up when it arrived).
Phone up to reset the password and because I refused to give out my full bank account number that the DDs go from (I gave out most of the digits) and because I cannot remember what month and year I took the card out (sometime around 10years ago) they won't reset the damn password on the phone either.

So now I have to wait for some stupid postal form to complete (probably also asking info I can't remember) before I can access the account to refuse the blinkin rate increase. Still at least I didn't leave it until the last day I suppose.

Frustrated and off for lunch.

solventsoon

Tixy, all I can say is :eek::eek::eek::eek:

What a pain in the **** online banking can be sometimes.

niccatw

I couldn't live without my online banking but it'd definitely a thorn in the side when you lock yourself out! Did taht with A&L before I'd even had the chance to use it!

When did it get to be 3 o'clock? Found the "health" suite at the leisure centre today after yoga. The gym may well be forsaken in favour of the sauna and steam room .

It's been gorgeously sunny all day in Glasgow :T. That's few and far between. But I may have jinxed it as I decided to dye my no-longer-white duvet cover purple, so as soon as the wash is done, I'll bet there's a grey clous on the horizon! Shhh, just don't tell any-one it was me!

solventsoon

Oooh, purple, nicca, sounds good :):)

Tixy, hope you're feeling better now post-lunch

Nose still streaming here:mad:, but sun still shining, so something's good today:):)
