        if you direct your eyes to the right of the screen

        ---------------------------------------------------->

        under the title CUK Navigation

        look 6 lines down.. there you go

        "First Timers"

        STEP ONE - read this section in great detail

        STEP TWO - look about 1/4 down this page, 6 headers in you'll see a button that says "Search", use it before posting anything about needing your hand holding or arse wiping..

        STEP THREE - if you expect to get any help from most people on here the best way to approach a question is something like "i would like advice on... I have searched and found some conflicting advice which is ... and would like some help"

        that way it shows that your not the lazy f eckwit your intial post implies and dont expect to be nannied and given hard earned advice for free

        STEP FOUR - learn to grow a thick skin, you'll need it

        STEP FIVE - never trust what an agent says

        STEP SIX - welcome

            Never post serious questions in Gerneral or you will just start a competition to see who can post the most arsey reponse. Apparently we are busy people with no time for trifling maters such as yours... as Test Please Delete demonstrates.
            The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

            But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
