    had an email off mods now saying no more emails complaining about wanteds and how many, the mods word is final.

    funny thing is several of the wanteds this morning are from people who have posted more in the last month (i.e. more than three) so its not really working just yet, lol.

    FGS, OK already!! MY NAMES MORTY AND I'M A FREECYCLE THREADHOLIC!!

    Firstly, the 3 wanted ads a month I believe comes from the international rules not the "unelected mods" (Of which I am not one I might add) Who EVER suggested FC was/should be a democracy? In which case, the mods/owners don't need to be elected and don't need permission to make and change rules and "force" (a bit harsh me thinks!) them upon the members, as they see fit in order to keep the status quo on their lists. From what I hear it can be a thankless task. The answer is simple...if you don't like the rules....(prize for anyone who can finish this well known phrase). The choice is clearly yours.


    Secondly, I love the ignore button which is being used copiously by me currently in order to keep my blood pressure down.

    And Thirdly a couple of corkers from my FC this morning:

    Would anyone have a surplus ritual bumpa that a small buddhist group
    would find useful?
    Many thanks
    A WHAT??!! I had to google it and only then did I realise I didn't have one lying around, surplus....:rotfl: :T

    also does anyone have any tassimo coffee/tea/hot chocolate pods they
    have that they no longer need we would be very grateful many thanks
    new or used I wonder? These things are about £3-50 for 10:eek: , I can't imagine many going to landfill unless they are really RANK! in which case, why does the poster want them??!:o

    see now i had to go and look what a ritual bumpa was too, (unnice person sat next to me said offer yourself, i've seen your car :( ) and i don't have one either. i have a nice china teapot though, think that'd do? no lid though, lol.

    edited to add it must be a religous theme, just had the following

    wanted, a large cross, the bigger the better, preferably made of wood

    got a 2 seater sofabed and matching sofa from my freecycle last night and so pleased with them, a lovely lady moving in with her fella so didn't need them anymore. must admit though there isn't anything I really need now I am hooked on looking still, and some of the things people ask for on the offchance are amazing! we have had a mail from the mods about the wanteds not being a wish list, but there are still people asking for laptops/mobiles/games consoles etc.

    Now I don't mind helping anyone BUT there are some things you just have to do by yourself!
