    Alot of people post problems and look for advice here on boards, so what was the best bit of advice you got from the forum?

    Besides blasting somebody in the face with a certain bodily fluid, the best advice i've recieved was from the property forum advising me to steer clear of rent to buy schemes, probably saved me alot of money and heartache!

    So what was your best advice you have taken from boards?

    If you see a hole in a public toilet wall never look in it, if anything comes through said hole from the other side hit it with your handbag.

    After spending time in AH I've realised I've lived a sheltered life, when I opened the 'Glory Hole' thread that was the last thing I expected. All hail AH it could have been an unhappy ending!

    Just because a man doesn't have hair around his lips doesn't mean he isn't a cunt.

    I have no idea what that means. It's a triple negative.

    I learned not to buy an Alfa. And to ignore the opinions of cyclists who wear Lycra.

    but boards is a much better and less hurting place to get others boardsies reactions than, the street, person to person.
    I don't feel such a fool.
    Take my experience with meteor broadband. Let's just say I got negative replies in the thread in question.
    Actually, used the same meteor broadband stick to play Skyrim via Steam in HDMI on my big Samsung telly last night

    Measure twice, cut once.

    You can't push a rope.

    Actually, I kinda knew this already, just like any other good engineer :D.
