Having a Paddy!!! Or Doing a Ewbank :)

No, that is NOT an insult to the Irish (of which I am one quarter, third generation). It is my amazement that speaking my mind has proved to be very beneficial on this forum.
I am usually placid, easy going and quiet but just this last week I got very annoyed at a couple of posts that I classed as unfair. So I spoke (wrote) my thoughts.
The results - well!
One generous soul spent an hour of his time on skype with me, giving me some sound and sensible advice and a new phrase for 'having a paddy' (and a few laughs too, cos he is a fun guy!)
Another generous soul sponsored my war room membership.
I am indebted to them both and promise to put both the advice and the membership to good use. Also, when I get a bit more proficient, to pay it forward.
I also received a few really good tips and some kind comments.
Perhaps my very first WSO should be titled
'How To Get What You Need By Being Bad Tempered'
