    Looks like it's changed again and the 'nerds' & 'geeks' are now 'fans' ;)

    I still seem to be a stale wart though :( :rotfl:

    'Fantastically Fervent Money Saving Super Fan' :confused: - Try saying that after ten pints. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Yet I see some people are still 'Geeks' and 'Nerds' :shhh:

    Have you tried 'BAZUKA' Dr Hook? :rolleyes: :undecided

    Hmm well I don't like the word fan after saying I was not bothered yesterday, being a fan of something or someone is something I got out my system in my teens! And to be honest MSE is more essential than a fan of, kind of like paying taxes, I don't save money we don't have a lifestyle !
