Off to the Drawing Room please. This is the Lounge which is for..........well, not this sort of stuff.

How come I'm the last to know this kind of inside information?

They charge ?25 for this service for new customers. I think you have to consider the ?17 deduction as a reduction in the broadband cost. You could ditch the ?6.50 charge for the TV if you don't really want it. I don't particularly like VM but am afraid to change as most of the time up to 3 users at once get a pretty good speed. Better the devil you know.............

What follows 'another bloke'?

I'd get rid of the silly music and word games too.

Ah that eejet. He was just pulling yer leg. Probably SeanMcG in disguise!

Are you suggesting that low life scum aren't treated then, as if they are what you say they are they're not likely to be able to pay?

They invented swimming.

@ Damian How did you know they were Romanian and why were you ringing the police?

Off topic I know but currently 7 of these on the first page of What's On.

Just to add, in case the fellow tries this 'technique' again, that he had a Polish sounding accent (to me, though I'm not an expert of accents from Eastern Europe). He was possibly 30,average height/build, not clean shaven and smoked. It might just trigger an alarm bell if it should happen to you.

I did SJ as mentioned in my OP. Thought I'd try to include all the details to avoid the dreaded multiple posting syndrome ;-)

Having entered my details at the ATM on the right and requested cash, the card struggled to exit the machine. It was eventually retained. It may have been just a fault with the machine but what was strange was that a complete stranger seemed to be aware of a method of getting my card back by using an unusual procedure of pressing certain buttons three times followed by my pin number. This didn't work and I was silly to try it given he was standing over my shoulder. I've cancelled the card with my own bank and phoned HSBC to advise them. I don't know if the machine has been tampered with or if it's a genuine fault. I guess I never will.

Ah, that's Sydenham Woods.

It's a lot easier to keep a snake.

Did you count the posts Jack? I made two before commenting to you.

Well SJ that was a long post to explain why DC's rant is perfectly acceptable. Regardless of the history involved, his post IMO displayed something close to hate if not hate itself. Maybe you should reread the post and try and be objective.

This thread isn't run for your hate of DM be allowed express itself. Being one of admin's moderators you should know that the T&C's do not allow this sort of behaviour. Perhaps you will ban yourself? Goodness me, to use the term 'tragic' is pitiful and as for having 'had enough', well stop bloody posting then. If anything is remotely tragic it's your subsequent arguements.

Are you talking about yourself David? I certainly hope you weren't referring to another forum user. I understand that Dulwichmum is from a humble background. Nothing like the 'character' you may have seen here. However this is/was an issue worthy of attention as many others are which are raised here. You seemed to wish to turn this into a bullying exercise.

Does it look pretty though?

Must be bad. He hasn't mentioned his love child Rory..........the golfer

It's not the feckin 12th yet is it?

Annette, did you miss not ever being a teenage boy?

It's the bees knees!

Most people weren't here when you had your Day 1 ????!
