    Morning Nargle, Tixy, Lula, Numpty et al..

    Bright and sunny morning! Methinks you have been on the wine Nargle as there is no sun here:rolleyes: Its a gloomy day, I can't get motivated either and I am thinking about re-arranging some appointments and wondering if I can afford a flight to Spain as I have been invited to stay for a week (12 Oct to 17 Oct) and I haven't had a holiday since January when I went last (cold and no tan:rolleyes:).

    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


    Lunchtime troll patrol - and a little reminder for all you newcomers out there.

    Wine Horace? No, it truly is a sunny day where I am. Still in good old England but perhaps a little closer to the Arctic circle than you are, and we do get some fine autumn days here. Go for that holiday if you can, not so many tourists about this time of year but weather still good.

    The sun sort of came out around lunchtime:D Its not too bad - I have been out and about twice today - walked to the stationers (gave me a discount:cool:) and then walked to and from the post office (about half a mile each way).

    Boredom...yes..that's a subject I remember well (it used to be called double maths) If someone starts talking numbers to me my brain goes blank and shuts down even now:rolleyes:

    Boredom - I remember teachers who had the effect of sending you to sleep after just five minutes of talking. One in particular could bore for England, and if you put him in a dress he would have been the spitting image of Osama bin Laden.......he was definitely one person I would hate to be stuck with in a broken-down lift. Evening all!
