Thanks Bex, and welcome.

Yep, you just evaded a scam, well done

You did all the right things, and as expected, these conmen can soon tell when someones a bit savvy and you get the phone slammed down

It's good to see the forum thread and message is getting out there!
After a UK e-petition was signed by more than 100,000 people, MP's are now set to debate a motion on whether fuel prices can be cut, as the government is planning to raise fuel duty by another 3p a litre in January

So where are our alternatives other than hybrid vehicles and 1960's milkfloats?

Well it looks like the first generation of ugly short range electric cars is starting to move in the right direction.

Anyone seen these Tesla cars? At last, a car that actually looks like a car, and you would be happy to drive, is fully electric and will give you a range of 300 miles.

Downside is they are ridiculously expensive, but it's a start. Hopefully we will see a flurry of other manufacturers following, and in 5 years it will become more affordable for the average person, with even better technology and maybe more range?

I think I'm finally warming to electric cars, especially if they are going to look like these!

“I do get asked several times a year to appear on the TV, Sarah Beeny was a recent one, but declined due to them wanting me to provide all materials and labour for a week free of charge Well they did offer a weblink on her site as payment.”

You turned down Sarah Beeny??? Dohhh I'm her biggest fan

So I wonder if shes gets most of the stuff for free for that huge house of her's shes renovating! Very shrewd

Suppose it's a bit like barter card (google it)

Not convinced personally, though have done a straight swop for services of similar value, but normally after I have been speaking to someone, rather doing anything formal via a 3rd party website.

“Was waiting for your response...Don't mind but I've become habitual of talking to you here.”

So are you going to actually introduce yourself properly and start contributing?

Actually agree with all of them, but here's my favorites

“Rule 1 : Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2 : The world doesn't care about your
self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 11 : Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.
