    Welcome to the debt free wannabe board. A great place for seeking advice and inspiration and support on getting out of debt. Please read the above in case you come across one the very few trolls or more frequent spammers that come our way.
    Please join in and bump Fred to page one if he is found lost and wandering on page 2 or 'horror of horrors' page 3

    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


    :rotfl:Niddy - this is a message from my hubbie:

    Hiya Mate - I read the old bat's post and I replied with one word - rhymes with little round dog food/treats with a hole in the middle (after I made the tea - did not wash the dishes though - I'll do that later pet) Mr 3Dogs
    always smile no matter how broken you are.

    Hi Numpty,

    Borassiclint - don't worry about numpty turning up, he gets lost in London!!

    Hi Tixy,

    I've lived in London all my life and I still get lost:o

    BL - hope you enjoyed your evening and glad you survived the window cleaning - you're brave to do that:eek:

    Hi spoon,

    I had a lovely time thanks, it's nice to get out sometimes especially when it's spur of the moment, the lasagne was yummy, ate too much tho, all washed down with my fav rose wine. Trouble is we didn't just stop at a couple of glasses so I ended up having to stay over as I couldn't drive home so had a bit of a head this morning, something like this:eek:. I'm looking forward to tomorrow when normality will return. NEVER AGAIN;)

    As for the windows, I don't do them that often cos it is a bit scary when you make eye conact with a crow sitting at the top of a very big tree!

    Hi to everyone else,

    Hope you have all had a good day. I see you've banished niddy to the naughty step, ah bless! My grand-daughter got put on the naughty step today and promptly wet herself:rotfl:

    Am signing off for now to go rest my thumping head. Have a good night all, Happy Trollzapping.
    I must stop procrastinating, I must stop procrastinating! promise I'll stop tomorrow OK:D
