Good Morning Everyone actually afternoon now!!
Sadly I have nothing to offer you other than that but I live in hope that one day I will have a great glitch for you which brings me to my next part.
I haven't been able to read back all I missed so apologies for that but I did see a couple of things that grabbed my attention. Kudos to the lady who posted the T Mobile glitch, what a fantastic first post here although sadly even that caused a bit of a stir amongst the ranks in a roundabout way.
Next I noticed a little bit of sarcasm starting with another newbie which is just so sad.
So I would like to offer my observation/opinion whichever way you wish to view it. This is not an attack or ambush of the thread and I hope I don't get seen as a troll for it but it is however a risk I am prepared to take.
I know there has been a terrible amount of troll activity recently but this is and always will be an unfortunate and often ghastly by product of not just this but all chat forums. From a newbie point of view, not all of us are trolls and whilst many of you acknowledge that fact but there is sometimes some back biting and lack of trust.
We end up here for numerous reasons, some for the glitches, some for the funny antics and social side and some even bring a great glitch.
Almost all including myself are nervous doing that first post to say hello but we take the plunge because we want to take part and that’s a compliment to you all.
This site was set up for the sole purpose of sharing money saving tips and the rest is a delightful bonus so to the minority that get cheesed off with us please think before you react.
It is often quoted “ we have to be polite to newbies” well yes please do until we give you a genuine reason to kick our butt
Some will ask questions that are deemed to be stupid or lazy but that’s not always the case. I personally have done my level best to avoid it in all honesty based on previous comments I had read prior to taking the plunge and posting the first time because I didn’t want to be a time waster but that said it didn’t put me off wanting to join in. I have read and re-read the initial help post but not everything is crystal clear and we rely on the experienced for some help and what is blatantly obvious in hindsight can start out as gobbeldy gook to a newbie.
Yes I am sure it’s a question that has been answered a million times before but with this thread also being home to great chat and friendships not everyone can read a book to find it.
I am sure we all want to share a massive glitch or money saver that one of you hasn’t already posted but the reality is 9 times out of ten its what we learn from being part of this thread that will kick start our powers of sleuthing.
On the whole there are so many old and new timers on here that are genuinely lovely people and they don’t have to be acknowledging our posts for that to shine through. You have a great rapport and it’s a joy to read most of the time but there are one or two that even without saying anything can make us Newbies feel like we have walked into a silent church and farted.
To that minority I have only one thing to say “please remember you was a newbie once too”
I am going to bow out now as I really don’t want to offend or cause trouble, it really is just a point of view that I felt needed to be said for the sake of future newbies.
Thank you to Locarr and everyone who made me feel welcome. I have thoroughly enjoyed being here, I have tried to say hello etc and keep up with the posts but I sadly can’t put in the time that this board deserves. I will be back to post that great glitch if I ever find it I promise. x0 -

Others here are more qualified to answer this. I'm not sure about what T are saying though, either you are committing an offence, or your not, whether it be criminal or civil. Maybe doesn't come into it does it ?
The infamous "fool fool" shop.
I'll give you the same good advice, that was given to me by a book keeper I used to work with.
"If in doubt, don't".

Hi it was the Manchester one, eventually left at 9.30 ish, poor booger will be done in tonight, he has a 19 hour day ahead.
Oh yes, I get that one when I m up there. I wish it was a bit later though lol. On a positive note at least it went eventually. There s nothing worse than arriving there and they say it's been cancelled and knowing you have a full day s train ride to get home and over £100 for the privilege0 -
Afternoon :)0just stopped for lunch and thought I'd have quick catchup.I hope I can get hold of some T's mags I do so love moc's and my little moc wallet is very sad looking at present.
I have been doing a bit more decorating so decided to have a little walk around the garden for some fresh air and I cannot believe how much is still flourishing even though it has all been cut back weeks ago and my little standard Holly tree I got whoopsied last Xmas in T's is thriving and got such a lot of berries on:eek:this evidently is a sign of a hard winter .Back to the Painting now enjoy your afternoon:)0 -
I'd love to cycle to work but commuting is far too dangerous..
Absolutely, and I don't think ALL cyclists realise what a danger they are to drivers and I don't even mean lorry drivers who can t even see them. Some of them swerve in and out and appear from nowhere. I would n t do it.0 -
