New posters generally need to get their posts approved to start with. I can't remember the exact way it works, it might be that if they try to start a new thread, it must be approved if they have less than x posts.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymore -
Morning all.
Oddly odd dreams last night: I seem to have got stuck in "Live Die Repeat" for some very odd reason which quite escapes me.
Sunny out with fluffy clouds.
Dunno what the forecast is.
Quite chilly in here at 21 deg.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

Serious answer time...
Assisting suicide or forcing (encouraging) someone to commit (or attempt) suicide is an offence in the UK. That's what section 2 of the Suicide Act (1961) clearly states.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostSuffice to say HMRC APN team have a great deal to answer for. Suggesting you get into other debts to pay off their debt is illegal and immoral. Why can HMRC do this?…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Morning denizens
Lots of white fluffiness out there so the sun keeps hiding briefly, but it's quite pleasant (if you like sun) overall
We were supposed to be having rain, but that's been rescheduled for tonight

I'm not sure, but I've seen similar phenomena, where older posts don't seem to show up in search results (for some reason, the forum software implements "show this user's posts" as a kind of search). I'll have a dig around in my local copy of the database and see if the post count is correct, and if so I'll be able to find the older postsOriginally posted by BrilloPad View PostCorrection! It was 2008!
