Hi

I would like to suggest a Champion of the forum experts and I think the first honour should go to Melanie - She is honest, fair and goes that extra mile. Melanie gives of her time and the amount of support she has given over the time she has been a member of the forum is excellent.

I for one would just like to say THANK YOU Melanie we don't know what we would do without you. [8D][:D][:)]

Andy could we not find a suitable award to be added to Melanie's profile in recognition of her exceptional service?

Yay. Go Melanie oh font of all IVA knowledge. Our debt ridden paths would be oh so much darker without the light of your financial experience.

Before you ask the men in the white coats are on their way. [:D]

I think Melanie Giles MBE has a good ring to it!!...I know of at least one person who got an MBE for "services to the art world" and she didnt work half as tirelessly as Melanie does!!

I have to agree 'forum expert' doesn't seem quite enough after all the good work and time that Melanie gives to this forum. I would like to say a personal thank you Melanie, you have certainly opened my eyes to a few things over the last few months.

I would also like to say a thank you to Andy as an expert and forum spokesman your commitment and dedication to the forum is also worthy of a champion of the forum experts award.

It's all about sharing information isn't it, and Mike you have definately opened my eyes up tonight with regard to your industry. I felt that I knew all of the answers, but most definately experts should stay within the realms of their expertise. Thank you for your comments - they are most welcome.

I agree about Melanie's work to support this site.
How about someone with some time doing this

I think we'd all support an application. And it does work I've seen one end up with the person getting a CBE.
Dame Melanie Giles has a nice ring.

I think everyone who gives up their valuable time to post help and advice on this forum is a champion!!!! But Melanie especially has gone that extra mile for me and taken time out to sort of some problems I've been having with my BR - but the title "Dame" always conjurs up images of Dame Edna so maybe stick to Melanie Giles CBE/OBE/MBE!!

Every year there are stories about people committing suicide because they are so badly in debt...We will probably never know if this forum has saved a life (or 2) but you never know!!

Thats why sites like this, the forum experts,and the members who post are all important to its survival and success..

Have a good weekend folks... ;o)
