        Or it could be that only the OP of the thread can add a poll.

        Sheesh. Are you Milan in disguise???

            Well, merged the threads. Of course, that doesn't mean it isn't a personal vendetta.

              I didn't realise you were going to do a poll as well.

                WTF is a "middle the road gold digger"?
                a middle the road gold digger is one that is not capable of going for a Donald Trump / Alan Sugar type of rich target nor is willing to go for a working class bod who can afford the rare occasional luxury but instead goes for a guy who earns far above the national average in salary and can afford numerous mid range luxuries (an IT contractor).

                  - Dress sense

                  So I guess it must be your money.

                    Makes sense, I didn't think Fenton sounded like a girls name.
