No shame in killing threads. I just won the 2005 thread killer award. I'm just waiting for the moderators to give me the crown,
Cheers,

I've made an appointment with the psychiartrist for next week, and the opticians the next (need a new pair of rose-tinted specs).. thanks for the free diagnosis.. And I always thought it was all the others... :scared:

So where do you fall in all that Badge and does that post come under the heading of "only when you have to" or are you just bored

LOL, Badge, fame at last!
And you're right, I get so much amusement from all the angst about spiders, etc.
When you've been here a while, you learn strategies (and products) to cope with most of those nasty critters. But if I posted them on here, it would put too much of a damper on all those people who appear to enjoy scaring themselves half to death. And I wouldn't want to be transferred to the Threadkiller list..........

Great observations there, although I reckon I might be a bit nervous of my next post for fear someone is going to "categorise" me

Re: Satire:Australian British Expats explained
Hmmm not sure where we fit! How about an "itchy feet" member?
The army moved us around at the drop of a hat for 22 years, and now I have been static for almost 9 (with a bit of a break in the middle of that) I have this need to move. I can't explain it, maybe just moving counties would help, but we are going whole hog and trying to move halfway round the world!
Mad I tell you, mad!

Re: Satire:Australian British Expats explained
The funniest ******* thing I have read in a long time
I feel I defo have a multi personality as I come under so many of those descriptions, luckily I changed my avator the other day to remove the "lettuce" part, feel the need to be a bit political/votey at the mo.
This has GOT to be the POST of 2005 - forget the rest. Second is JTL Thread Killer for discovering this unusual disease
You should become an agony uncle or TV Quack!

Very funny Badge! I realise I was reading it through muttering - no..that's not me....that's not me....hmm...maybe that's me a bit....hmm maybe a bit rosy....I'm not that old...etc etc. Pidgeon-holing...a favourite pastime

How about another category of posters who keep giving you false information on places they know nothing about and keep arguing with those who actually live there?
