But it does make life more interesting!

Looking at Nawmans signature.it reminds me of a quote by one of our Prime Ministers. who was instructed by the speaker to apologise and retract a remark he made.

He actually said 'half the Parliamnet are fools'

His retraction was ' I meant to say, half the Parliament are not fools'

Yep

No, not guilty m'lud. I don't doubt that you would like it to be me, but I'm squeaky clean on this one.

I don't have anything to do with food mixers, infact I haven't owned one for more than 10 years, and then that was due to a p/x. I prefer the sound of a rumbly V8 to a chainsaw!

I hope no one got burnt by it, although do we know for sure that it was a scam?

There was an excellent one on a US powerboat forum recently, somebody thought they had bought a $100k powerboat for $8k.

Do E bay take any sort of action when this sort of thing happens?

I can't see em giving your money back?

Boats and outboards are V good about any scams they find out about and often e mail details out of scams they have heard of
