QUICK! Everyone bombard this site with businesses, real or not. How about www.combattingeverydaysexism.com ??

IneedAsockamnesty · 05/02/2014 16:58

Terry is obviously a wanker

IneedAsockamnesty · 05/02/2014 17:00

It now comes up with a odd message about dogs and biting

TallRedhead · 05/02/2014 17:01

That is awful. How do we get this out there to shame him? Although he would probably think all exposure is good and will just advertise his shit business! Angry

JennyCalendar · 05/02/2014 17:01

I don't see that message. I only see:

'Dog Owners Please Note:

We no longer accept listings for dog related business unless you are prepared to vouch that your dog has never bitten anybody.
(We do make exceptions for Maltese owners) '

DanceParty · 05/02/2014 17:02

Well, I can't find your quote anywhere. Just something about Maltese Terriers!

IneedAsockamnesty · 05/02/2014 17:02

It was there but it's now the dog one

TallRedhead · 05/02/2014 17:03

It has just changed! Maybe he thinks he is funny and regularly changes his opening paragraph!

LaurieFairyCake · 05/02/2014 17:03

Sounds like someone having a very small penisey laugh

Lonecatwithkitten · 05/02/2014 17:03

Gosh only men can run serious business. So the deal I did with another woman in a Monday worth £210,000 both of us running our own businesses was a figment of our imagination.

SunGate · 05/02/2014 17:04

He's just changed the message I think although I doubt as a result of this thread as happened too quickly.

I think Terry is a bit of a pratt joker

.....or his wife is on MN!

"Terry, quick change your website, you've upset MN - you'll be in the DM tomorrow if you're not careful!"

CandidaDoyle · 05/02/2014 17:06

Now we're all just providing hits on his website. Currently says there's 2000+ visitors on there. Bet that's something of a record for Terry

Lillilly · 05/02/2014 17:08

Its just a shit website he runs from home i expect .. lol

puntasticusername · 05/02/2014 17:11

I don't see a lot to get upset about, myself. The man seems like a bit of a div. Big deal. Don't reward him with all this attention...

puntasticusername · 05/02/2014 17:12

Either that or he's just taking the piss himself, of course. The dog message seems to indicate that that might be the case.

squoosh · 05/02/2014 17:13

People called Terry are generally best avoided.

DaleyBump · 05/02/2014 17:18

There's a screenshot of it on FB, what an utter cunt.

Caitlin17 · 05/02/2014 17:34

Oh that's hilarious. I'm afraid I clicked on his silly little site and then clicked on"L", then on "Legal Consultants"(whatever that might mean) and then finally on "Legal Consultants in Aberdeenshire" being the only Scottish place name.

Apparently Terry thinks Aberdeenshire is in England.

Topaz25 · 05/02/2014 17:41

I can still see the quote from the OP.

Monetbyhimself · 05/02/2014 17:44

Oh dear. 1 million angry Mners could just about crash the little site Grin

Tezza!

AlpacaLypse · 05/02/2014 17:49

Blush I've just realised I advertise on that site (I merrily advertise anywhere that gives free listings) ... at least I've never given the arsewipe any money!

Can't say I've ever picked up any business from it though.

Notawordfromtheladybird · 05/02/2014 17:49

That links to terry and his profile. Including his address and mobile numbers. And his toughts on MN

I smell self promotion, Terry
