If you cannot understand the phrase "US law only" which is on the screen you are reading, my suggestion would be to write what you bloody well like since I doubt that anyone will read it.

Let me put this as simply as I can.

General advice will do you no good.

The laws in the US and the UK are different.

All we can tell you about is US law.

We do not know UK law.

For all we know, what is legal in the US can get you thrown in jail in the UK.

Or vice versa.

That is why it says at the top, US LAW ONLY.

Ask your question of someone who knows UK law. You will get no answers here.

thank you

if there were such a forum as this in the uk i would surely be using it.
a polite reply that it was foolish to genuinely apppeal for some direction would have been very much more appreciated. i have never experienced such rudeness anywhere before and i fee very sad that you felt you had to respond in this manner,
i apologise for having taken up your time and wish you well.

YOU, pal, are the rude one....

I don't believe that I was rude in explaining why the US law only exists.

You, on the other hand, deliberately ignored the rules of the board and demanded information that we are not here to provide and state in big letters that we will not provide. Sorry, I'm with SJ. I think you're the one who was rude.
