    Lol Minnie! Didn't that painting get stolen a while ago? Did they ever get it back or is it still missing?

    There are various versions of The Scream. I think he was on a roll (Martin would be proud!).

    Two have been stolen in recent years, but recovered.

    Would that be a retorical question? :confused:

    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Well folks - I did have a serious question but nobody answered me so I thought "sod it" and tried to delete it, but I couldn't. Hence I just put in the question marks. The original question was "Is it too easy to get yourself in debt?" I was comparing it with the days when the item not the person carried the debt - if you bought furniture and could not keep up the payments they just took it back.

    Yes, its harder to live without credit. It's pushed at you from the second you turn 18 through the post, on tv, in shops and everytime you phone/go into the bank. People even stop you in the street to sell you credit its mad.
