    Why are these Chinese casino people spamming our thread? don't they know we are savers? If I had money I would not go to a casino (let alone one in China) I would want to use it in a useful way. How stupid do they think we are? Maybe the sun has got to them.


    Any how it is gorgeous outside. I came home as early as I could as it is like Spain. And we get it for free! I hope it lasts.


    A few days and we break up for hols. Cannot wait.


    Arrived home at 4.00. I have just washed some clothes and put them on the line. Very MSE.

    There is a message from Martin about the spam on the Site Feedback board. For some reason I can't post a link to it :think: but this is the message:

    "Hi folks,

    I just wanted to come on here and apologise. I've been made aware we are currently being plagued by spambots. That isn't good enough. I know its being going on too long.

    I was on leave for a fortnight and came back last week, and if I'm honest it didn't hit my radar properly in the 'rushing to get everything done once back', now it has.

    I've now seen the extent of this and while my forum team have been doing their best to fire fight it - that's been piecemeal and we need to aim for a much bigger solution to block it once and for all.

    This afternoon I'm pulling together MSE's senior management and techie team to try and come up with a more robust solution so we can kick this to touch.

    I can't promise we'll get it done by tomorrow - but I can promise we're now putting grown up resources in place to try and sort it. I'm going to ask the forum team to give you updates via this thread.

    Again, sorry for the inconvenience, we haven't dealt with this to the level you should expect from us.

    Martin

    PS please meanwhile do click the spam button on these threads "

    Ladies do you think the weather will stay gorgeous over the summer? I do hope so. I have loads of work to do but it will be fab if the sun shined too. I have 6 weeks off. Next year we are going to lose lots of our holiday at work due to cost cutting so this is the last long summer holiday and I am going to make the most of it. (In an MSE way).


    Fab news, I have just realised that I have saved £1000 in kitchen fund as from today which is on target. Now I have to get my short term fund saved in the next few months.
