Hi, Allie, Tixy, Geebee. Handy here popping head out of bunker. Geebee thanks for the 11'es much appreciated. Well today started well, not to much walking on egshells. Managed to find a buyer for my Rolls Canardly, on the proviso I put a new MOT on it. Shouldnt be a problem. I was offered the asking price wich was great. Them Mrs Handy went of on one when I told her I was going to repay a family debt, with the proceeds. She said she didnt know anything about it. Only one month ago, I borrowed the money to buy a car for stepson so he could [STRIKE] go back on the smack [/STRIKE] look for work? Sometimes you just cant win.

Erme, I think your right I might be paranoid, years ago I had a go at being a comidian, I got a job on a holiday camp. I had to give it up afer a month, I had the feeling people were laughing at me.
I like the idea of a carer's allowance, but who would pay handy to look after them?

Best wishes to all, handy will be back later.

Call me thick but how on earth do you know where a spammer is going, before they've even typed their post?

Hi pixiechick... what i usually do when there are spammers about is this... click on their name, then click all their posts, then i go thru them one by one and make sure theyre reported. Also.. here's the stalker bit... click on their profile and see what they are doing... you can see where they are in the forum, so you go there, usually you can be right behind them, or (as in my case a couple of times) before them!.

You look at the post they have made and then go into their 'view public profile' which will tell you which thread they are looking at next. or it will say replying to thread 'Notice to newcomers ...' so you have to quickly type in ignore the spammer they've been reported (or whatever) before they finish their post and hit reply

Thanks Geebee and Tixy!
I've never thought of looking at anyone's public profile before. I've reported spam when I've seen it but I can't wait now to get on a thread and post before them

Thinking about it, that would be fun.... you could write something like... "what took you so long, did you take the scenic route?" :rotfl:

Makes me wonder if I have stalker tendancies then - I often look at people's profiles!!
I get unreasonably annoyed when a new poster asks a question and I and others all answer but they never press the refresh button (you can tell from the last activity time being the same time they posted originally). An hour later the site logs them out and they've never seen the reply. I sit here checking and checking muttering about refresh buttons and F5 keys.
And if I'm bored and can see people are online but not about I look at what they are doing to see if they are reading something interesting elsewhere on the forum (yep bit stalkerish:o)

Goodnight all (and remember I might be watching you :rotfl:)
