Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.

who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list. This is the reason
why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts It is better to receive

This is the worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified by
Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by
McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This
virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital

Netlore Archive: False email alert warns of 'the worst virus ever' circulating in the form of an attachment labeled 'POSTCARD' or 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK'
Description: Email hoax Circulating since: Feb. 2008 (this version) Status: False, although real e-card viruses resembling this do exist
don't these always make you feel like "how come it took so long to get to me" or "why didn't anybody think of me when all these zillions of warnings are sent"...... i feel left out, bona! think of it this way - at least they cared!!
No, as s/one who invariably sends back the Snopes link to whoever sends me one of those with a snotty message, can't say I do!
I even sent the Snopes link to one which was supposed to be an "amazing formation of rocks in Burma which you can see only once a year when the light hits just right" resulting in the image of a praying mother and child (1/2 being the rocks, 1/2 the reflection in water " when it was clearly a painting, not a photo, so I went a-Snoping, and right enough... Yes, the picture is amazing and I went looking for more paintings by that extremely talented artist as a result, but why the fake story? It doesn't make the picture any more extraordinary, or the story more interesting! It does however show there are some fools about who will believe anything if they can't see the difference between a painting and a photograph!!!
Anyway, sent the Snopes link back to my sister-in-law and she complained I ruin all her illusions!
Is this a Hoax
, and it is for real!!
