  • Apologies for having a brain.

    On the basis that you find the same poster possibly using two names confusing, I'm not sure that's an apology you need to make.

    You don't find it strange that someone would post under two names?
  • The point is this poster appears to be a 58 year old council tenant celebrating the birth of twins...

    And yes, I too have a brain..quite a big one.

    Dont need to be a genius to work it out willy wee.
    A clear and innocent conscience fears nothing.

    Not at all. People are posting very personal information on here, while other people are making destructive use of that information. Using different names for different aspects of ones life seems like the obvious way to prevent some people from putting the pieces of thast jigsaw together. Call it self preservation. I'm sure you can see the reasons it may be wise, what with that brain of yours.

    I could understand that, but the OP seems to post similar things under the two names, which would not support your reasoning.

    I'm sure they can explain their reasons when they come back to update the thread!

    Perhaps she lost/forgot her sign-in details. The other name (with the "OMG twins" thread) hasn't been active since August. It could even be a different person with similar circs. I guess we'll wait and see.

    Unfortunately, it's always been the case that social housing is allocated to people who act irresponsibly. I know because my parents were on the waiting list for council property for over 40 years!

    Is it? Really?

    Where did your parents live if they were on the list for over 40 years?

    We were on the list for 12 years and moved from private. We don't act irresponsibly.

    My parents were allocated a property (1984) because the one they were living in was being knocked down and the land sold to private developers.

    They never acted irresponsibly either.
