    Yes Soo has a very good point. Too many lunatics around.

    I am sure you could work out what I sell from my previous posts, and perhaps with a bit of digging, find me, but I don't think it would be that easy!

    Noted, I'll be sure to protect myself a bit then.

    Someone tracked me down once- it wasn't fun :( Surprising how much damage a person can do

    Sorry to hear that :(. I have someone who's willing to sell on my behalf so I wouldn't want people getting hold of their details either.

    I can well imagine the damage done. Why do people behave like that?

    Because they can. There are enough people who violently disagree with what people post that someone with a grudge could go beating up on someone.

    However, OP, the very best of luck to you. Nice to see someone ask questions first, not wait until they are in up to their necks and something goes majorly wrong.

    I've been told I'm an overly cautious person, always fine checking details before I do anything. I see it as a good thing :).

  • My aunt guessed who I was on here thanks to a detail I posted - very bizarre and slightly disconcerting bumping into her on here!

    How very awkward, must have been a shock.
