    ON Health/rauty/fashion board someone had the great tip for making glasses cases for odd socks.

    Does anyone know if it is it possible to block internet access from north of Hadrian's wall? That would be good for starters.

    What would all you guys down in England do then? ;)

    Hi, I'm new here so please be gentle. I've read a few posts on this forum and it seems that house prices only ever go UP UP UP. This is fantastic news. Does this mean that if I can borrow enough money and buy a big house that one day Rodders I will be a millionaire? Sensible answers only please.

    Sensible answers only please.
    How about posiing a sensible question first? ;)

    To answer your query though, the answer would be yes,
    With inflation, you would become a millionaire assuming you live long enough to see your investment inflate through the years and then sell the investment to release the millions :rolleyes:

    I am led to believe he has been stopped from posting or accessing his inbox. Yet there is no PPR against his name. He has passed on a message which I am unable to quote as it contains numerous swear words and character assassinations. The gist of it is that he wishes you well.

    Hey Mewbie, do you keep all your log on ID's and passwords on yellow sticky notes?

    I've just read a fictional book called "The Broken Window" by Jeffery Deaver. The perp in that book collected data on yellow sticky pads.

    If this is how you are doing it, it may be revealing a lot about your character ;)

    Watch out, this could be a very dangerous man.

    Houses just sit there being houses. They don't go up in value.
    In fact, without money being spent on them, they actually lose value.

    If in the future someone comes along and is able to spend £1 million pound or whatever more for your house, all that has happened is the value of your money has gone down.

    Remember.... inflation is theft.

    Why quote me, and talk to someone else? I am not some psychic enabler. I am (checks screen) Yoric.

    I found it a bit telling that Mewbie decided to pass a message on to yourself when at the time you had 9 posts and not on to somebody he would have had more connection with on here :rolleyes:

    Also a bit telling when the 5 out of your first 6 posts was about PPR'ing or using the abuse button to stop people..

    I've not heard your edited mod joke for a while, you afraid to use that anymore ;)

    If I were to run multiple ID's I would probably use a list of some sort. I might give them all the same password. I might use different browsers. I would definitely be logging in using a high frequency wireless bounce from an old satellite dish in my garden, with a semi modulating pinhole accurate seek and destroy mechanism. It's technology that is used mainly by the US military, but I got one secondhand on Ebay. I do have to wear the ridiculous shades that came with it though.

    You should read the book I quoted, "The Broken Window"
    It is interesting how people use multiple identities and are able to acceess information

    it's getting desperate that he has to make up a number of different user id's just to chase and target a number of the more realistic posters, what is he trying to do - as you can see he is trying very hard to ruin the board after being shown to have made up the story about getting a warning just to attract attention.

    Can we swap the new users (well we know they are not) and have AD back please.

    Got a feeling theses new ones will spoil the board where AD was a useful decent poster.
