    Why do you think people on this board will know about that?

    (I've heard M & S well spoken of ;))
    Ex board guide. Signature now changed (if you know, you know).
  • Thanks, just seems a busier board and people on here seem to know about a wide range of subjects. A wild stab in the dark I know!
    Thanks for the M&S tip as well.

    I have replied on the other thread.

    There are folks on here who are unemployed and doubtless would love to go on holiday so not being rude I think your posting is a little insensitive.
  • What a cheek!

    OK but my partner has just got a new job after 5 years, we have not been away anywhere for 4 years and so forgive me but hey, we've earned it.

    Why all the adverse comments. OP asked a civil question, can he not get a civil answer? It's also the type of question I see getting asked regularly.

    Give the man a break.

    Whoah, wasnt expecting all this vitriol! As you say worse questions get asked on this board. How about the "I am not working and not claiming benefits, living off my money and my question is...." type threads, do they pi$$ people off this much?

    Unless a load of posts have been deleted, "all this vitriol" is a bit of an exaggeration!

    Anyway, can't stop as I am just off to the disability board - it's a busy board so I'm going to ask if they know the best place for me to buy some new running shoes.
