    Selling on Gumtree, am I just paranoid?

    That’s what I’ve started doing for eBay sales.

    Selling on Gumtree, am I just paranoid?

    I have no idea what Market Place is like as I walked away from Facebook many years ago and never went back, however I’m sure it’s pretty bad.

    Selling on Gumtree, am I just paranoid?

    I hate selling things on Gumtree, but sometimes I have no choice depending on what it is - I won’t sell anything on eBay if it can’t be posted (or if it’s valuable enough that someone will just claim it never arrived and scam their money back through eBay’s flawed resolution system). The past...

    Advert for UK electrical wholesaler showing american electrics?

    The point that they make about it being a “beautiful woman” reminds me of some of the pictures used to advertise power tools. The people using the tools are always WAY too smartly dressed to be doing DIY! My wife bought me an electric screwdriver as a gift recently and it came with a small flyer...

    Pro Suicide

    I read about a teenage girl in the US who killed herself because she was being bullied. The thing is, one of the two mouth breathers who had been doing it posted something on the victim’s Facebook of the “Why don’t you just f* off and kill yourself you little b****.” and she was egged on by the...

    What the h*ll is up with all the spam in General Discussion?

    It’s annoying. I’ve been reporting a few but there’s so many that I feel like I’m draining the Thames with a teaspoon!

    One of my many, many pet hates.

    I understand that - but I just find it annoying that people would arrogantly pretend not to understand other people just because they don’t speak “American English” (or British English for that matter). English is my father in law’s second language but even he can understand the vast majority...

    One of my many, many pet hates.

    American pronunciation of most things, to be honest. It’s especially annoying when arrogant Americans claim to be “unable to understand” anything we say, despite the fact that we’re obviously speaking English.

    What do you collect?

    I collect a list of all the times Mrs Nope has been wrong. It’s a weird thing to collect but it happens so rarely that each one is precious.

    One of my many, many pet hates.

    I’ve been calling them drill bits since I was 5 years old and my dad got me interested in DIY. I can honestly say I’ve never heard anyone calling them drills, but I could see it happening, and it would be annoying.

    Aren’t Parkside the Lidl brand or am I mistaken?

    I wouldn’t touch Flymo after reading bad reviews of their mowers online. I’ve had a few bad lawnmowers so now I just want one that won’t give any trouble.

    I’m considering cordless. Just looking for one that doesn’t get any bad reviews, easier said than done.

    Thanks for the info, but I’d rather avoid petrols. That’s two I’ve had now which have suffered the same fate, so never again.

    One of my many, many pet hates.

    Just to put my tuppenceworth in again: I’m guessing people who describe this wall accessory as a fused spur would consider an unfused spur to be something like a socket at the end of a cable taken from another socket on a ring. It’s a spur but it has no fuse so it is therefore unfused. That’s...
