Silkstone, Blighty!
I like the idea Red, I am fast starting to believe this Karma thing, I saw the comedy My name is Earl and some of it rings true. I try to accomodate people if I can by helping them out in some small way, especially if I am going somewhere and they are going part way, I'll give them a lift. Maybe they need something and I can get it for them, I'll send it off. I think you get a reputation by your actions, if you do good your reputation will reflect that, and it makes life nicer in the long run.

It all sounds a bit fluffy I know, but if everyone tried it, the world wouldn't be such a crap place!

I agree Spamel - I think it depends on circumstances and I think a dose of healthy scepticism with complete starngers is called for. This however is a group of like minded friends and, as you say, its a nicer place if we trust each other. I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is and cover Leon against any loss he might suffer - I think we are a better place than we give ourselves credit for

Leon,

Entirely up to you mate! You need to be a full member to sell stuff, you can swap right now. I had a try last night on the "paying forward" principal (prefer to put my money into it than yours) and it seemed popular. It has to be your choice though...

Asked you mum about the axe yet?

Hey, we all all have a few bits that aren't any good to us - if we pass em on, we'll probably get what we do need (guys here taught me - I bought a wrong bit of kit and a member sent me the right bit (free). Someone else said - hey I need that thing you don't need...and I thought.....hmmmm theres something in this...just seemed a nice thing to happen you know?)

Yummy, everyone round to Leons for Tea!

I'll call my mate next week Leon. He may not have one anymore, but I can ask!
