The police have been informed and yes I do know people off this site and many other online sites in real life. As quintwins says we have been friends off this site for over 3 years

goofythedog, can I just say that MSE is full of ideas on how to make money, using printable coupons, doing surveys, the make £10 a day thread, the slow cooker thread, the frugal thread, old style thread, how to live off a store cupboard thread......

maybe HI is just doing the sensible thing, reading MSE and following all the advice available on how to survive on very little whilst paying back your debt, so you can be debt free.

I can shop and save money using coupons - there is a whole thread dedicated to it! called the Printable Coupon Thread. I make money from survey companies, I have £60 in Leisure vouchers just from shop and scan that I earnt last year. I am saving them for a trip to the zoo with my family.

With the printable coupon thread, people have reduced £100 shopping bill to just £6.86 etc. it is possible if you shop cleverly and use vouchers on offers, so the items are free or really reduced.

And it maybe hard to you to believe something in writing where someone does come through adversity, but it CAN BE DONE and has BEEN DONE. MSE is full of testaments to this.

I have met 10 MSERs off site from MSE in real life. We are still friends to this day.

I know a lot of MSERs who have formed friendships through MSE and met in real life, I don't know if you know about Mike's Mob? I will find you the link. A whole lot of MSERs got behind MSE and bombarded the BBC to help him rebuild his house, and a bunch of MSERs went down to help with the rebuild.

I know to you it is amazing that she has coped, but people do cope. And MSE is full of stories like this, Keep reading the other diaries.

It is not about jumping on you. I have seen this before on MSE, where someone starts saying things, and people start doubting, and it can get unpleasant. I am not jumping on you, just trying to prevent another situation like this.

Will find that link for you now.

Nobody is jumping on you goofy.

i wasnt asking to start anything i just couldnt understand why if a court had done an order not to see the ex for children why HI would go against it surely that could get HI into trouble. i have known people who have done this and then lost their children from putting back in the risk situation again

beanielou

I do wonder though goofy why you are so defensive?

goofythedog

it feels like im being jumped on i only asked a reasonable question but if i cant do that then whats the point of someone do an open diary

This is Mike's story.

It is definitely worth reading and lovely to see how MSE achieved so much.
