Hi all, my afternoon has gone to the same place as the morning.:eek:
I think I need a Microwave bed. That way I can get 8 hours kip in 40 minutes.:rotfl::rotfl:
Just not enough hours in a day.:mad:

Thursday nearly gone, Friday on the way.....work at the weekend then off for a week. I certainly need a break after the week I have had - car problems but sorted now because I am awaiting delivery of a new car tomorrow. Well, not new but a change of car. Have been ploughing through insurance documents today. Grrrhh! Why do they use fifty words to explain something that could be said in ten word? Why, when you ring them to query something, you go through several automated menues then it rings...then you get the message that they are experiencing high volumes of calls but your call is really really important to them.....and to add insult to injury you eventually get to speak to someone who says he will just press a button and you will be through to the right department. You sit there waiting...and waiting...thinking, "they are a long time putting me through to the other department..." then you realise they have managed to cut you off. And to really round it off - it was an 0845 number.
I have just been sitting here, firing off a snotty email, steam escaping from my ears.
So I thought I would come and cry on the shoulders of the lovely people on here.
Thank goodness this week is nearly over!
Good evening, everyone, by the way!One life - your life - live it!0 -

Cheers Handy, I went five years ago and loved it, I've wanted to go back ever since. When I realised how cheap you could camp I couldn't resist. I stayed in a fancy holiday house then, how my attitudes have changed!Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0

Good Morning, welcome and please read the message below
A long time ago Pania wrote the message below to Newcomers or anyone who comes across a troll on the forum.
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 such a comment made on any thread you post, asking for help and advice, please realise this comment is not directed at you personally so please ignore these nasty comments and continue to post here as normal because the majority of us really are a lovely bunch – ooops, modesty!
What should I do if I get a comment made on my thread?
Firstly do not respond to the comment as this is invariably what the troll wants. So to get rid of the offending post, at the bottom of the post towards the right hand side you’ll see a red "Warning" triangle within a blue “Report” icon, as shown below:
Click the icon and then "send" the message which will inform the MSE team of the post, who will then review its content and deal with it as appropriate; sometimes even deleting the troll by making their status PPR’d (Posting Privileges Removed). Remember, this site is an asset to so many people, especially those that feels like their world is falling in around them. There is a wealth of knowledgeable people here all willing to help, whatever you do, do not let the comments of one silly individual deter you from availing yourself of the knowledge base that is on offer here.PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE THE FORUM
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 their debt crisisPLEASE DO NOT LET THE ACTIONS OF THE MINORITY RUIN THAT
Good Friday Morning Folks - and a long weekend ahead for most :j
(long day ahead today before I get there though)
