    id be a great bedroom dj but .....

    the access is upstairs, the set up space is far to limited , i only have one socket , and the bottom line ..... i can't afford myself.

    I was just getting a rise out of you, as I knew you'd react that way.

    I don't get Viagra ads, but there are plenty of companies selling the tablets, so there's lots of stiff competition.

    You're age is no excuse, don't use it as one. I'm 18, younger than you - and I've got a residency at very nice Hotel, and bookings of my own that fill up the rest of the time.

    I may have been doing this longer (?), but still, age is no excuse....! lol.

    Notice this is the only part that refers to the service that's required, and it's in capitals........ in that mail merge sort of way.
    I bet they send the same email out to caterers and photographers and car hire....
    They honestly must think we were born yesterday
    Has anyone got experience of 'render' ing their services? Don't you just love poor translations

    I must confess that the first time I received one of these emails I was unaware it was a scam (probably because my IQ is lower than my shoe size!), and sent a reply asking for more details.

    Amazingly, I never heard anything back!
