    Pixiechick as Education Minister you must ensure this is on on the school syllabus. That must go in our Manifesto.

    NID and GeorgeUK you are included in this too. All nice people are.

    We wont make you wear satin slippers and purple dresses if you dont want to. Honest!!!!

    Ann you are allowed to cry. I do everyday.

    We have to wait for JC. She is really clever and hopefully she is with her parents and they are giving her the same advice as us. At least she knows she is not alone and lots of us have been in a similar situation at different times in our lives and we lived to tell the tale and learn from the experience.

    Afternoon everyone :wave:

    Seems i've missed a mini-storm :o:o Well done SW and others for what you're doing, it must be a great relief to other users to see people around that care. Well done.

    I'm here for the long haul, so what's the gossip then - not all at once, take your time so as you don't trip over yourselves :rotfl: :rotfl:

    My gossip, I went to bed at 7am, got up at 1.30, watched Rangers (draw??) and then left for work - oh, after eating a bread roll (cos i'm poor) ;)

    Missed the sun, missed the pub, and I think *I miss the banks ;);)




    * Niddy is going senile, worry not!

    Hello the NID

    Well the girlies all wrote posts to our dear friend JC. I have been glued to the computer. I have put lots of CD's on ebay for ridiculous prices like 25p. bruce springsteen albums for a pittance. Am I mad? Yes!!!!

    Hopefully everyone else has done fun things. I am going to start my marking in a bit. Am staying by computer in case JC posts.

    I've noticed a few people comment on bailiffs/DCA's etc - whilst they can be funny to check them out and dig up dirt on them, it's really not worth it cos they will only hassle you for so long, and by the time we're finished with the UE claim you will be more than comfortable dealing with them.

    Bailiffs have no laws really, if they turn up at your door you just deny them entry - simple. If they get funny, you call the cops!

    I have created a thread, in collusion with an ex Bailiff (RobertoMoir) which explains what they can and cannot do - and also provides in-depth coverage to help you fight them away. Linky is here: Bailiffs and Collections

    Bear in mind, with regards to your Unenforceability claims (UE), you will never be visited by a bailiff as they have no right to obtain judgement against you thus the only people that *think* they can call are "doorstep collectors", usually people from the DCA that owns the account - thing is they have NO RIGHTS whatsoever.

    Regards to the Lowells case, this was on watchdog last year - there is a thread about it on here that I was involved in but can't seem to find it! To read about them, and watch the programme, see here: BBC - Watchdog: Lowell - chasing debts

    Hope the above helps a little - but remember if you have any concerns then just ask me and i'll get the answer for you, if I don't already know it :D
