I know I don't pop into the Inn often and I don't post on this board much as I don't have the experience or advice to help people on the subject of bankruptcy.

I try not to get involved in politics/ in-fighting or all that sort of stuff, and most of the time I'm not even sure what its all about. I'm on MSE to help people and to motivate myself to clear my debts. But aside from all that is going on (or isn't going on or whatever) over many many months I have seen the regulars on here offering great advice to newcomers, people who are terrified, people who are suicidal.

Time and time again its the same people who are around to post replying to questions/new threads. These regulars (and they do inevitably change gradually overtime) are invaluble to the MSE forum, its what the whole forum is for, you have the knowledge and advice to help people, to explain the rules of bankruptcy and to explain in real terms what actually happens at each step of the process.

With a gradual turnover of posters over time this allows new people to learn more, so they in time can advise not only from their own point of view but from the experience of reading about other people's journeys.

I really do hope that people won't stop posting their advice. If all the long-timers leave at the same time there will be a hole in the collective knowledge of the regulars on the bankruptcy board and that would be a shame.

Anyway this might not be the thread for this ramble from me, but I hope by being here it be seen by the people who are thinking of leaving. Take some time off of course (we all need to do that now and then) but your advice is wanted and needed on this board in my opinion.

I hope this board will return to what it was, a great resource with less of the bickering etc.

Thanks Tixy, I hope so too x :beer:

ooh lovely....TQ! when do you make it?

I usually do it over a weekend running up to Christmas, it takes a day to make the gingerbread, then you have to leave it to go a bit hard, then build the house with royal icing 'cement', finally ready for decorating - which I try to do on Christmas eve with the boys. The beauty of gingerbread is that the longer you leave it, the better it tastes!!

All being well I will make it this weekend, ready for decorating next week...the kids now its nearly christmas when we start!!
