Yipee!!!

oops! i managed it with the 1 thread!!!
Please ignore that i've hogged the 1001 spot!!

Were you waiting for the 999th to be posted then as you were v.fast! can't grin as pissed off.

no...me thinks YOU were the 1000th!!!!

Now i AM pissed off!!!

Still cos it's you...i'll let you have the 'glory'...you need cheering up !!!

Cheers mate, I just can't get over that Jimmy one. I think he may have bitten off more than he can chew with this. He gave a bit of a lecture about Beanieman not being registerd to sell sizzix stuff when I told him that I could get the sizzix for 30 something pounds, but I put him right by saying (as per JM) 'Yes but we all know what he does, he goes over in the sales and brings it all back here'. At least with Beanie, you get the stuff pretty quick, no faffing about......god have just realised that I am rambling. Sorry. How are you anyway, haven't chatted to you for a while.

agree...that cr*p about licensing etc... basically it's like everything...if there is a demand ...customers willing to pay...the cheapest price...then people will find a way of selling cheaply...yes i can understand a company being peed off that they are undercut...but at the end of the day...if a price is so different...what does he expect us to do??? Jimmy sould buy his off ebay...and he'd still make a few quid selling it cheaper than the £99 he quoted you!!!

Though totally dishonest..if someone offered me a sizzix for £20...and i had no idea where it came from (as long as it wasn't stolen from you guys!!!!)...well...would i say "no thanks...i'll pay £99"...or would i take it (and hope it works...and if it broke after a few months...accept i'd been duped...but "Hey! it was a cheap few months!"

Talking about dishonesty, I bought DH a telescope online for Christmas and they delivered it, even though I left instructions for it to be left with neighbours, and left it outside my front door! I was v.tempted to phone up and say it hasn't arrived. FFS it was 100.00! But I figured that what goes around comes around...and it's true.

One day whilst walking down a street, I found an envelope with loads of money in it. It didn't have any thing on it, just cash inside. Looked around didn't see anyone, so walked home. When I got in I couldn't believe it.

Phoned BF who is a PC, and told her. I asked her if should hand it in, she laughed and said 'if you hand that in, one of our lot will claim it and have a party!' Keep it you silly cow.

I did and subsequently lost more or less that amount (bad investment) a few months later.

I used to buy stuff 'from the back of a lorry' until I got burgled.

Now, I just wouldn't do it.

Sorry Mrs F, I wasn't moralising there, just thinking out loud.

alex found a wallet the other day...no name...a kids pocket money...nearly £7 in it... so we put a poster in the local shop...and are waiting for somone to claim it...really upset me as for a kid tthat is alot of money.

also a few years back i left £50 in the cashpoint...needless toi say it was gone when i went back...

so you are right.
