    the original post might not be that out of order but this rant certainly is. reported to abuse.

    Hi Lynzpower
    Thank you for reporting my abuse.I am surprised you say that the OP wasn't that bad.I think it's totally disgusting.I was totally wrong in saying what I did and should face the consequences.

    Even in my second post I only state a contribution of £2 to the Big Issue seller.Well that's what I give to the one I regularly see.
    Do you think I should give more?Or maybe I should take him a blanket.I mean it was cold last night.Some food maybe?Don't worry he get's that too.

    Congratulations on being debt free from yesterday.Here's a link if you have some spare cash to help others who may not be so fortunate like yourself.

    Sorry if you have had some of my abuse.Totally out of order.

    Been out with the boys to see the Gunners go through.Yippee..

    At £85 a night ,plus a possible tip,plus food on what is a romantic night(possibly Valentine's eh,seems such a waste to see them have to take the bus,when the parking may only be £10.I guess the bus maybe half that.

    My point was never to offend and I have apologised and given the member
    a good tip which she has thanked me for.

    So I trust you have read all my posts on this board and understand my intentions.We try to laugh and cry together.

    Oh, please can you thank the poster who reported it as there are still only
    three 'thanks' and one of them is mine.Ta!

    Still not sure how much to tip in an £85 a night hotel.:mad:

    Who would you tip? :confused: I promise even I can carry my own bags!

    Don't be so judgemental please. You don't know me or Lynzpower and what you said to her was downright nasty. :(

    The parking is £20 btw.

    Hi
    I guess when you say 'who'you mean what ..would you tip.I would think the norm would be 10% assuming you were content with the service.
    As a moneysaver I wouldn't give them a tip.My tip would be to use the Quidco cashback(not guaranteed though)in the car park.
    That way I can spend loads of money on the one I love and get them to carry it back to the car in the local car park.
    Some parking charges here

    I guess to get through £20 you maybe checking out quiet early from the hotel.Tesco cafe do a lovely breakfast.

    I am totally confused about the judgemental bit.Is this forum just for people who know each other?Silly me I missed that bit in Martin's opening paragraphs.Only friends and family should speak.
    It does however say be nice to each other which I have not.In a funny sort of way it's called abuse.In a funny sort of way you're paying all that money on this romantic night,just to maybe save on the car parking.
    I wonder if there is a garage local to the high street.Get a cheap oil change on the car and come to collect it later at say 6pm.

    Now the bit where you say it's downright nasty.........
    I merely congratulated Lynzpower on reaching the debt free stage that is made very clear at the foot of her posts.
    Is that such a crime? Is it such a crime to think of others that are not as well off than her,you or me.I will leave my rant for the Charities board as this is not the place.

    I have to be careful what I say now as some people take offence at the smallest of things.........we'll see what happens........

    Still only three thanks in Lynzpower report post.Over 300 people have visited
