Hi all, another Handyman bedtime story about life in and around Hooray Hall, down here in scrumpy land.
Now my new avatar got me thinking when 3 Dogs said she thought I must be Big and Strong. I’m not like that at all.
But my Avi does look like Grizzly,



who rents part of the farm next door to the hall, for his Log and Firewood business. He is the only man I know? Who can swing a 14lb felling axe one in each hand, simultaneously. He is a real local and when he speaks you have to listen hard to understand him. “Whurrs it too then? Its art the Zider Farrrm. Ower yoderrrr. Long Red Hair and Beard, he looks like he’s just walked straight of the set of Brave heart.
Now all the land around us is owned by the Local Squire Sir Reginald Fod - Scrotum. The Fod - Scrotum’s have had free range for the last 3 hundred years, everyone in the local village is a tied tenant. Now Sir Reginald is said to be a gent, but when he retired, he let his son the Honourable Tarquin Fod - Scrotum take over the estate. In the space of just a few years the estate was almost bust.
The thatched cottages in the village all have tarpaulins covering the roofs as there is no money to repair them.
Now Grizzly does (did) some work for the estate, and when he wasn’t paid got into an argument with young Master Tarquin. When the argument got heated he grabbed Grizzly by his giant red beard. (In the fashion taught at Eton when disciplining ones Fag). No messing Grizzly lifted him one handed by the throat and held him till he went blue in the face.
Discretion being the sensible option, Grizzly went straight to Sir Reginald and explained what had happened. I cut the Boogers wind orf said grizzly.
Idiot Boy, I cant believe he’s one of mine said Sir Reg “you should have held him a little longer”.
That’s one of the reasons why Scrumpy Land is known as the Wild West (country).
Best wishes to all, handyman123.

Not sure if we have this thread over here on BR board but DFW bump this often so that newcomers new & old are aware of the possibility of `troll` issues.

They `bump` it along regularly to keep it in peoples minds. Perhaps it would work over here?

Pania`s words are so brilliant I could`nt better them myself so I copied as below.

Notice to newcomers re trolls.
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
xxxxx
