It's not the same as stealing though is it Daniel? I wouldn't turn a blind eye no, but I just can't see how it effects people. Surely it does no harm to help them? |

Well Marie, if thats the case, maybe others cant go without other things to provide themselves with membership. |

I can't convince you on this, but my reason and my view is held by a number of people on here and that is why they have the word member written in capitals. I can say no more. |

They should work harder like I had to. I don't believe that nine pounds cannot be found, there are pensioners on here living on the bread line and they still have the pride and decency to pay their way. |

then there are plenty of other places they can go and request look-ups for free. |

Sorry Marie, but thats a bit of a daft thing to say! You don't know an individuals circumstances, and so you can't expect them to 'work harder'. Anyways, will pick up on this later, now going out. |

Paul You were quick enough to have an uninformed opinion on my circumstances !!!!!!!!! I maintain that if pensioners can pay. Anyone can. I couldn't give a monkeys if you think my opinion is daft. It is my opinion and as a paying member I have every right to express it. xx |

I wonder how many people who abuse the success board (the non paying ones like the ones today) smoke, drink, buy magazines, cans of pop on a regular basis and other non essential items. Save a couple of quid a week on some of these things and youve got your membership money Anyone serious enough will do this. Anyone would think its almost a tenner a week they have to pay....not a year. Elaine x |

PAY OR DON'T DISPLAY! I work 2 jobs (6 days a week) to afford 'luxuries' such as my subs to GR and I wouldn't expect any help if I wasn't a full member. |

Sandra I will pull you up on that. Paul is entitled to his opinion and whether he is new, old or whatever is besides teh point. I personally cannot see how he arrives at his conclusion but I respect his right to say, however odd I find it. |
