Oh my .. (as my American online friends, in newsgroups and forums, say).
Maybe I'd better give up, I am obviously not 'doing it' right.
Thankfully my gardening skills are ok, so not too much is lost ☺


Let me explain, it's not just a case of you "not doing it right", Emery was
not being pedantic, he was trying to be helpful. Some newsreaders strip out
everything below the signature separators so those using those types of
Newsreaders will never see your posts. That is what the separators are for,
for easy removal (automatic removal) of unnecessary stuff.
